SUI prevalence was highest in Hispanics, despite risk factors being more common in Black women. Black women were less likely to consult with a specialist. Mixed or unknown race/ethnicity women were more likely to undergo active treatment. Future studies will evaluate if racial/ethnic differences in SUI management are due to patient preference or provider practices.
