Incontinence Shields for Men, Light Absorbency, 58 Count, Packaging May Vary

Happy with these they meet the need

Son delgados, no abarcan mucha superficie sirven para pequeñas gotitas que llegare salir o para otros fluidos previos, no estiran son planos, pero se amoldan bien a la ropa y a la anatomía, NO se remarcan aunque traigas pants. No se pueden usar en bóxer tradicional; en bikini o boxer corto quedan muy bien y siento que protegen más. Por lo mismo delgado absorben el liquido, pero no lo gelatinizan inmediatamente como otros, y durante uno o dos minutos se llega a sentir un poco húmedo, pero después lo absorbe y se te olvida que lo traes puesto, no incomodan cuando te sientas, a veces cuando no se colocó bien o quedó muy abajo llegan a molestar, NO acaloran. Son Recomendables para proteger tu ropa cuando tomas medicamentos que pintan o para ligeras gotas que quedan después de pasar al baño o ligeros flujos emitidos. El adhesivo es fuerte, no se mueven, hasta haciendo deporte están siempre en su lugar, lo malo es que desgasta la ropa. Lo usé las 24 horas y NO se desbarató con el calor, como otros que el algodón se mueve del lugar o después de 12 horas se empieza a fragmentar. Recomendables Adquirí otro juego de 174, ya que la seguridad que estos protectores proporcionan al ser delgados y para muy ligeros flujos es buena y no acaloran mucho, cuando ha hecho calor he puesto un poco de talco en la parte más delgada por el sudor provocando que a veces irrite por la humedad.

I'm still in the process of (I hope) regaining full continence after prostate cancer surgery. I started with (and needed) the maximum absorbency Depends. They absorb an astonishing amount of fluid but are also pretty thick and not terribly comfortable at night. As matters have improved, I have now switched to the light absorbency pads, which are MUCH smaller and thinner than the maximum shields. They are, as one would expect, more comfortable and I've had no problem with slippage (I wear traditional cotton briefs). But they are really to guard against the occasional dribble. If that is where you are, the light shields are first rate.

does the job

Recovering from “nerve-sparing robotic” prostate surgery done 11-months ago at MD Anderson. Immediately after surgery, I used the full men’s diapers. After a month or two of doing 100 or so kegel excercises a day, I got out of the diapers and converted to heavy pads. The pads were great and saved me a lot of embarrassment and were so much more comfortable than the diapers. I kept doing my kegel exercises and converted to these shields 2 months ago. I loved them. They were GREAT. I kept doing my Kegels and now I do not wear anything. No pads at all!!! These light pads were a godsend. It is like I was not wearing anything. I could wear “protection” but not really be aware of it. I bought several types of light protection on the same day once I was ready to convert to a lighter pad. These were the best designed for me. I really like the good solid glue that they use so the pad stays in place. It is VERY thin and I often had to feel myself twice to make sure I have not forgotten to put one on!! This are not right for you unless you only have a few drops of urine a day or one small spurt!!! When I go out for a business meeting, I often tuck one in my back pocket but other than that, they stay in the bathroom cabinets. WITH REGARD TO KEGELS: I think statistics say most men (60+%) fail to do their Kegel excercises regularly and, as a result, remain incontinent for years. I saw myself fall into the same trap. I got into a routine where I stopped doing them and my incontience persisted. So to help me remember, I downloaded an app on my IPHONE called CHIME from the App Store. I set it to chime every hour, on the hour. This chime would call me to action. I would then pick up my IPhone and set it to the STOPWATCH function, sit on my couch and do the excercises for an hour every morning while catching up on the news and then I would do 5-15 minutes of Kegels every hour when I heard the chime. (I have the app set to chime every hr from 9am to 9pm.) I would watch the news while holding the IPHONE stopwatch prominently in my field of view. I would hold the muscles tight for 10 sec, then release for 10 sec, then repeat, repeat, repeat for 30-min to 1-hr. I would also do them numerous times thruout the day. When driving, I would also be doing Kegels while at red lights. I used the redlight as a clue to do a few excercises. This CHIME app reminder gave me rapid progress wrt the incontinence. My pelvic flood muscles would sometimes be sore. After a while, I started ignoring the chime and fell back into old patterns of no Kegels. So I set the CHIME app to announce the actual hour, “one o’clock, two o’clock, etc. That caught my attention and I was more consistent. Today, I do not wear any pads at all! Good luck out there. Now, if prostate cancer was just that easy to fix...

Good product, works great. Some days when I'm out and about traveling or shopping, and using lots of public toilets, you just can't control the dribbles at an older age. Not like these young guys that can empty out in seconds and be on their way. I don't need to use them all the time but nice to have. They stick well in just about any kind of undergarment but I don't see how they could possibly work with boxer style shorts. Great to keep on hand. I think these that are labeled "light absorbency" could still handle quite a lot of liquid.
