| Depends diapers have built-in odor protection. |
To find the best incontinence supplies it helps to know
which form of incontinence you suffer from. The majority of people suffer from
urinary incontinence. This is when you have the involuntarily loss of urine.
For many people urinary incontinence will come on suddenly. You will not have
warning that the bladder is going to release urine and you often will not be
able to make it to the restroom in time. When this occurs, you should plan on
wearing adult diapers through the day as they will capture the urine that is
lost.
There are also incontinence pads that can shield you from
odors. These pads are great for light urine loss. The Depends pads can be
discreetly placed in your regular underwear. For individuals that are
embarrassed about incontinence, the pads can help you maintain your dignity
since you can continue wearing your normal underwear. The pads do not make
noise either when you walk around. One other benefit to the Depends pads is
that they also include the odor shield. This will protect others from smelling
urine if you do end up having an accident in public.
The Depends brand sells a large variety of incontinence
products to choose from. Purchase incontinence products based on your gender.
Though urinary incontinence is similar in both genders, the way the urine is
released is different. Each gender needs a product that will capture the urine
in the area where it is lost. Try out multiple Depends products to find the one
that does absorb the urine properly and will give you maximum protection.
Every incontinence product you use needs to not only
absorb well but it needs to be comfortable. If the adult diaper is too tight on
the skin it can end up leading to rashes and rubbing on the skin. The adult
diapers are meant to be comfortable. Since they will be part of your lifestyle
now, it helps to search for the products that do fit snugly but do not rub. Try
moving up a size if the adult diapers are too tight around the legs. If they
are too loose, they can lead to leaking.
It helps to shop for incontinence supplies that are
affordable. When you are wearing them daily, the disposable products can become
expensive in a hurry. Opt for the products that you can afford. Washable
incontinence products might suit your budget easier. Depends actually can help
you here if you have a flex spending account. There are certain situations
where insurance companies will pay for the supplies.
How can you dispose of the adult diapers when you are in
public? Using small plastic bags with odor shield or bags that are scented can
prevent you from embarrassment. This way you can toss them into the trash
without the worry that other people will smell them when they pass by the trash
container. Managing incontinence doesn’t need to be an embarrassment anymore
thanks to odor shield offered by Depends diapers!
