However, many of these men can also experience incontinence after having prostate surgery or receiving radiation for prostate cancer. Unfortunately, in some cases they are not made aware of this occurrence in advance. This can be at best disconcerting especially for men who have never had to deal with this issue before. If you are a man in this situation it is important to understand while this can complicate your daily routine for awhile there are strategies which can help you to better manage this issue. Having the right incontinence product is one of them.
