Who is our bladder weakness underwear for?
If you suffer from mild to moderate incontinence, our absorbent underwear is perfect for you. They are particularly suitable for people with stress or overflow incontinence.

With our absorbent underwear, women who suffer from incontinence are able to regain their self-confidence.

Why is absorbent underwear better than other types of protection?
While our underwear is primarily intended for periods, it is also a suitable solution for incontinence problems for many reasons.
First of all, it is both more discreet and practical than other protection available. As absorbent as a pad but without the thickness, it can help you deal with the unexpected. Remember that the thickest panties are 3 mm at most, whereas "super thin" panty liners are around 2.5 mm.
For women who need both period and urinary protection, the absorbent panty is a unique and highly effective solution. Depending on your needs, they can be used as period or incontinence underwear. You no longer need to invest in several products (panty liners, pads, tampons cups). With a few pairs of absorbent underwear, you are covered!
Our underwear is also reusable and can last several years provided you look after them well. Imagine the money you'll save: if you add up the cost of the various single-use protections you use, you'll soon realise how much you are spending. Opt for incontinence underwear instead - one pair costs around €30 and can be used for an average of 3 or 4 years. To maximise their lifespan, use gentle cleaning products and avoid bleach and stain removers, even if you see stains on your briefs. Their use will deteriorate the fabric's fibres. Similarly, stay away from the tumble dryer as it will damage the waterproof lining of your underwear. As a result, your underwear will no longer be of use to you.
Finally, let's not forget that opting for reusable protection means you can reduce waste by more than 80%, a nice change for the planet. If you are committed to a responsible and more environmentally friendly approach to consumption, reusable protection underwear is the way to go.
Our underwear can be used alongside other incontinence products
To prevent or cure incontinence, there are several solutions out there. For women, perineal and pelvic floor re-education can help strengthen the area. It is also possible to re-educate the bladder in order to have better control. You can train yourself to go to the toilet at specific times and to resist the urge to urinate. While you are in the process, wearing incontinence underwear can help you to build up the self-confidence you need.
If you have moderate to severe incontinence that cannot be solved by rehabilitation, there are a number of surgical options you and your doctor can consider. If this is the case, incontinence underwear may not be the solution for you as they cannot provide enough protection. We recommend opting for adult nappies, which are much more absorbent than other means of protection.
