Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / April 2006What is a 'depend'?
Is it a pad? I've been worrying about it since the first erectile dysfunction post. Mary in UK "Depend" is the brand name of a full line of incontinence products for adults. The brand is owned by Kimberly-Clark. The Depend products range from pads to underwear-type diapers. As used in this forum, the product most used by those recovering from prostate surgery is a pad known as Depend Guards for Men. You can see the full line of products at the Depend web site: www.depend.com > "Depend" is the brand name of a full line of incontinence products for > adults. The brand is owned by Kimberly-Clark.

I like the Depend Guards for Men, since I only leak small amounts when getting up from a seated position or stepping out of the car. The Depends Guard is second from the top on their absorbancy rating. The product with the most absorbancy is a diaper type brief. I like the Guards because I can change easily in the men's room. It would be a lot more difficult to change if I had to actually take off my pants, and shoes, to put on a new one. The Guards have worked very well for me over the years. But beware the "yellow tail" >> Is it a pad? >> >> I've been worrying about it since the first erectile dysfunction post. >> > I like the Depend Guards for Men, since I only leak small amounts when > getting up from a seated position or stepping out of the car. > The Depends Guard is second from the top on their absorbancy rating.

The Depend Adjustable, which has 150% more capacity than the guard, has tear-apart sides which allow one to simply rips the sides open and remove the diaper without removing one's pants. Ditto, putting them on; rip the sides first, put 'em on and secure using the Velcro-like fasteners. I used Guards most of the time but occasionally used the full Depends when I knew I'd have high leakage --- such as while playing golf. |
