Our incontinence underwear can be worn all day or all night, for an average of 12 hours of protection.

For heavier flows, we recommend changing your underwear when you start to feel wet.

Do I need to wear protection inside my panties?

No. Our panties are specially designed to stop urine leakage and replace disposable panty liners and pads.

Do you feel wet inside?

Absolutely not. The first draining layer transfers all the urine leakage to the absorbent and storage layer, giving you the feeling of being totally dry. Note that it's important to choose a model that's adapted to your type of flow for greater comfort.

Our incontinence underwear gives you the same feeling as wearing normal underwear.
