In certain types of seizures the person loses consciousness and voluntary control of the muscles in the body. This loss of control extends to all parts of the body including the muscles that help control retention of urine. In addition, muscles contract and relax uncontrollably. These may all lead to the loss of the ability to control the bladder and a subsequent release of urine that is stored in the bladder at the time.
