Male Urinal Lavatory Incontinence
Aid Sheath & Bag Review

I recently came upon a product that is both innovative and very handy. People in their advanced years usually worry about incontinence. Though this is normal at their age, it could still be very embarrassing. Most of the time, they resort to wearing diapers. A lot of them don’t like to do so because it makes them feel helpless and too much like babies. Older women may be able to get away with it, hiding their diapers underneath layers of skirts, but it is more difficult for men. That is the reason why I think a lot of people would really like this product.

The male urinal lavatory incontinence aid sheath and bag is a great substitute for male diapers. It is noninvasive, therefore, lessening the risk for acquiring infections. It also removes the risk of developing diaper rash since diapers are no longer needed. The bag could also easily be strapped to the leg and camouflaged under loose pants.

The “device” looks like a cross between an athletic supporter, a condom catheter and the usual indwelling urinary catheter. It has an elastic waistband to hold the condom catheter in place. From the condom catheter, you would see a piece of tubing that would lead to the urobag. This urobag would also have straps around it so that you could safely attach it to your leg and you would find a nozzle at the bottom for easy emptying.

The only downside I could see from the whole thing would be that it is a little bulky. There are a lot of straps and tubing going on, but all in all, it could really be greatly beneficial. It also lessens the number of times you have to go to the bathroom. You just have to remember, though, to empty your urobag before it gets too full or you might experience a little “accident” again.
