Manufacturers of incontinence products have spent most of their research time developing products that appeal to their biggest customers…women. However with the growing population of older men there is now a demand for male incontinence pants that are every bit as effective and comfortable as those made for women.
Manufacturers are responding to this new market by offering incontinence pants specifically designed for males by incorporating fabric and production advances made in women’s garments to produce underwear for men. These gender specific garments work well for any man with light to medium incontinence and when used in conjunction with a pad (also designed specifically for a man) can handle even the heaviest flow of urine. Regardless of the model chosen, the pant is designed to wick away fluid keeping the skin dry and lessening the chance for a rash to form.
Made of soft knitted polyester and incorporating the absorbency weave found in ladies garments, these pants look like ordinary underwear and are extremely discreet. They can be worn under any type of clothing without being detected. What’s more these pants come in both briefs and boxer styles to accommodate a man’s personal preference.
Men have the choice of disposable pants which offer the greatest convenience, or washable pants which offer the greatest economy. Disposable garments are easily tossed away after use while the washable version can be used repeatedly reducing the cost of the pant. And shopping for either style doesn’t have to be an embarrassing experience either. Many retailers offer these products online and they can be shipped directly to your home with no need to stand in line at a retail store.
If a man is uncertain of what kind of male incontinence pants is best for his particular situation, he should check with his doctor. Doctors who deal with this condition are constantly being updated with what’s new in the way of men’s undergarments and can make an informed recommendation.
