TENA Men Incontinence Guards for Men, Men's Pads, Bladder Control, Maximum Absorbency, 48 Count

Ever since my prostate removal for cancer, I have had a "little" control issue. I even used my wife's pads but they not so good for men but better than nothing. I bought two different (both expensive) brand protection underwear briefs, not for me. They are on extended stand by duty. Finally I searched for pads for men, there is such a thing! These, each come with a little bag to discard the used pad in. I am giving these a try. So far, good. But to use the fly opening to relieve yourself, the install instruction covers that opening so I install it's smaller bottom end up next to fly opening with pad mass facing down. Works good.

This brand is the only one that works for me. The comfort and absorbency is perfect for my daily use. They fit my life style and are very discreet.

These are ideal for men perhaps several months after surgery, when your leakage is low, as they are less bulky and obviously absorb less liguid than TENA's heavier grade pads, which were very useful right after surgery, when you might have leaked a cup of urine a day. ***Practicing Kegels before surgery, then doing you Kegels often each day, starting a week or so after the surgery, REALLY helps with a quicker recovery!! When you heal and recover to where you only have one to a few unexpected small "spurts" a day, then this thinner TENA pad could be ideal for you. TENA's in general are very absorbent compared to other brands I've tried, comparing same thickness, and they hide any odor of urine well for hours. The have a better "wicking' material, that's why. The slightly higher price for them, compared to the cheaper pads sold at "big box" stores is well worth the difference, as a thinner TENA is a lot more comfortable than a less tailored, less aborbent, and bulkier cheaper brand. The fit is much better for me than, say, *Depends, and that brand difference totally depends on just how a particular pad conforms to your body/underwear. Some folks prefer the *Depends fit. Price matters more for some folks, too. Your mileage may vary. Try different brands and see. I bought some pads from different brands, that happened to be donated to a Goodwill store, to compare them, and not waste much money doing so. By the time 6-12 months pass after surgery, most men "should" have little need of a pad. Even with the same surgeon, the time until you are '"dry" every day will vary by months for their patients. Shop around for surgeons, overall, some surgeons just have better technique than others. Get an "A" surgeon, and not a 'C" grade surgeon! Some days I'm "dry" and can wear the dry pad for 2-3 days before it gets wet. That's when a pad's adhesive is really tested! I'm also almost a year past surgery, so I hope to not "need" any pads in the future, yet I'll still have one on, "just in case" if I'm in public, and can't get to a bathroom for hours-as when your more "full" bladder is most likely to sneak out a "spurt". Solution-don't drink a lot of fluids for 2 hours before an event, and pee just when you get to an event, even when you don't feel like you need to! I'm 5'10' and 220 lbs, and the pad is too wide at the top and rubs on me, so I cut it roughly in half, horizontally and use the smaller, narrower bottom half only, and that is a better fit and feel for me through the day-the rubbing on the side and top used to drive me crazy when I walked. Maybe the whole pad is the right size/ fit for you. I learned that talking to other men after surgery, and looking on forums, that their daily urine leakage lessened as their body learned to "hold it in" especially while laughing, or suddenly standing up. (Go Kegels!) Fortunately , their need for pad size and thickness definitely changed to "smaller and thinner" with time, as things improved. Cons: The adhesive strip is at best mediocre. They've got to up their game on making this "stickier." One star off.

Well, I never thought I would be leaving a review for something like this, but here I am! As a man of 60, who is very active and loves to hike and walk long miles everyday, long drives, etc. these have really been incredibly helpful and life affirming. Okay, this will sound strange: I may not end up “using” them every time I am on a hike, but they give me that extra confidence and let me not be embarrassed if I am out with a group of friends or on a steep run and I can concentrate on safety and my surroundings. Our bodies are machines and sometimes we just need a little extra help as things wear out a bit. I have tried various other brands and forms of these prior and have found these to be perfect. Comfortable, absorbent and not too bulky and sticks well to undergarment. Nicely designed for men, appreciated! Not noticeable at all under my workout gear. Looks great under a nice pair of jeans, just a little oomph ;) So there you go! Embrace being human guys, no shame and enjoy getting out in this world.

I have tried many diiferent pads over the years after my prostatectomy in early 2021 from max to min capacity. I have found these these Tena to be the best Fit, easy to to use, and have the best hold capacity for my needs. After installation of a urethral sling in early 2024 my incontinence needs changed from 4-5 max absorbency pads/day to 1-3 medium absorbency pads/day. The quality of the Tena pads is great and can last all day with good hold in my boxer briefs. Highly recommended!

They need more tape on the wide wings to keep them from bunching, center tape strip could go all he way to top. I have tried these they are very asorbant and I would continue to use them if the tape problem were fixed. I put about an inch and a half of double sided tape out on the edges of the wings near the edge of my briefs and it worked welll. Get the tape problem worked out and I Wii be a good customer. It is in convenient to have to do this with tape if your pushed for time.

I’ve been using these TENA Men Protective Guards for a while now, and they’ve been very dependable. The absorbency is solid, even for longer days, and they stay in place without bunching or shifting. They’re comfortable enough to forget you’re wearing them and discreet under regular clothing. I also appreciate that they don’t feel bulky or noisy. Overall, they provide peace of mind and do exactly what they’re designed to do.
