Bladder Leakage

This section will help you to think about the characteristics of your leakage which are important for product selection. These include how heavily you leak, when you leak and in what circumstances and the nature of the flow.

First of all, it is important that you have a thorough assessment of your leakage by an appropriate health care professional and consider all treatment options carefully - your leakage may be cured or substantially reduced by treatments.

There are many things to consider when deciding which products might help you. Describing your bladder leakage (how much you leak and how often) will help you think through which products are likely to be suitable. Although most relevant when choosing pads, this is also useful information when thinking about different types of other products for lighter or heavier leakage. Click on the boxes below for help:
