My mom said kegel exercises were great for after she had kids. Before trying them, every time she laughed hard she'd pee a little.

I don't know how effective they are for MS, but they can't hurt and is supposed to help your sex life a lot.

that link is all about bladder retention and nerve diseases and also explains kegel exercises.

I hope this helps
