Introduction

Urinary incontinence is a common condition¹ that can affect males of all ages², including children with spina bifida³ and nursing home patients with associated significant morbidity⁴.

A frequent consequence of prostatic disorders⁵, it occurs more commonly with age and can have a major impact on a person’s well-being when left unmanaged.

Shame and embarrassment around the subject may hold them back when talking about their situation and this creates a lack of communication that could be a barrier to starting successful treatment.⁷

The good news is that healthcare professionals and the right continence products can do much to ensure that patients receive a tailored support solution that eliminates the taboo, helping men take back control of their condition to improve their self-esteem and quality of life.
