Men's Incontinence

Incontinence refers to the involuntary loss of control over bladder or bowel function, resulting in the unintentional release of urine or feces. It is a common condition that can range from occasional leaks to complete loss of control. Incontinence can be caused by various factors, including age, medical conditions, muscle weakness, neurological disorders, or injury. It can have a significant impact on an individual's daily life, requiring the use of specialised products, such as absorbent pads or briefs, to manage and maintain hygiene. Treatment options are available to help manage and improve incontinence symptoms.

Male incontinence can be caused by factors such as prostate issues, neurological conditions, post-surgery complications, bladder muscle weakness, or certain medications. Enlarged prostate, prostate cancer, and surgical procedures like prostatectomy can obstruct urinary flow and lead to incontinence. Neurological conditions, such as Parkinson's disease or spinal cord injuries, can disrupt nerve signals controlling bladder function. Weakened bladder muscles and medications with incontinence as a side effect are also potential causes. Consulting a healthcare professional is crucial to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment for male incontinence.

Men's incontinence pads are designed to absorb and contain urine leaks. They are specifically shaped to fit the male anatomy and can be worn inside regular underwear or with special incontinence briefs. The pads have a moisture-wicking top layer that draws liquid away from the skin, keeping it dry and reducing the risk of skin irritation. The absorbent core inside the pad quickly absorbs and locks away urine, preventing leakage and odors. Some pads also have adhesive strips or wings to secure them in place. Men's incontinence pads provide discreet and comfortable protection, allowing individuals to maintain their daily activities with confidence.

Men's incontinence pads can benefit various individuals who experience urinary incontinence or bladder control issues. This includes men of different age groups who may be dealing with conditions such as prostate issues (like an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer), neurological disorders, post-surgery complications, or general bladder muscle weakness. Men's incontinence pads provide a discreet and convenient solution to manage and contain urine leaks, allowing individuals to maintain an active lifestyle and regain confidence and comfort throughout their daily activities. We also have a range of women's incontinence aids available too.

Yes, incontinence pads are designed to be worn overnight and can provide protection and absorbency during sleep. Many incontinence pads are specifically labeled as suitable for overnight use. These pads are typically designed to offer higher absorbency and have features like extended length, additional leak guards, or a more secure fit to prevent leaks and ensure comfort while lying down. However, it is important to choose the right level of absorbency and size that meets your specific needs to ensure maximum effectiveness and minimise the risk of leaks or discomfort.
