incontinency
Loss of control
Incontinency is an older or more formal variant of incontinence—the inability to control bodily functions, particularly urination or defecation.
The word also carries a moral sense: lack of self-restraint, especially regarding sexual desire.
The preacher warned against the incontinency of youth.
Both uses are now uncommon, with incontinence preferred.
