Small bladder capacity is when the urinary bladder cannot store an adequate amount of urine in the bladder. Normally, the urinary bladder can hold at least 300-500 mL of urine. People with small bladder capacity usually have an urge to urinate as soon as the bladder fills, often with less than 100 mL of urine. Behavioral therapy, bladder training, tibial nerve neuromodulation, and sacral nerve neuromodulation can improve bladder capacity in people with small bladder capacity.
