For those who suffer from bowel incontinence, we recommend protective underwear for light to moderate fecal incontinence containment. For heavy to severe fecal incontinence, we recommend using a brief.
There are a few reasons a product may be leaking. Sizing is one of the largest causes of leaking in protective products; please ensure that the product you are using is the correct size. Another cause may be that you are not using the right absorbency for your needs. Light liners and bladder control pads aren’t made to contain full voids. If you are experiencing leakage out of liners, you should consider moving to protective underwear. If you are having trouble finding the right product for your needs, give our friends at HDIS a call. They will provide a free, personalized incontinence assessment and provide free samples that you can try before you buy.
