Is detrusor overactivity with detrusor underactivity limited to the elderly?

DO-DU is not exclusive to elderly patients. It can also be diagnosed in individuals with risk factors regardless of age; therefore, clinicians need a high degree of suspicion, especially in patients who have risk factor(s) for DO and DU. A notable clinical differentiation is that older males diagnosed with DO-DU have a higher incidence of urgency and urge urinary incontinence, while younger females have a higher incidence of straining.
