If it's just active, the above.
If you leak a lot or are (face it) have stress or urge incontinence, pelvic floor muscle training works. It's done at a doctor's facility and isn't those Kegels. I was past that. PFMT works.

Eliminate gluten, dairy, sugar and caffeine and see if it gets better. Could be your bladder is irritated.
