Some women don’t know what to begin with when they find out that they are incontinent. Some of them try to hide their problem or handle it using household methods. They try to protect their underwear using cellulose wadding, cotton wool or traditional, thick sanitary pads. That solution, however, doesn’t work well enough as there are still many problems to tackle – the unpleasant smell, the leaks, the necessity of frequent pad change and constant feeling of wetness.
There are also some women who decide to see a doctor, ask a pharmacist or a friend for advice, and come across a different solution – bladder control pads which provide comfort throughout the day being really discreet.
What is the difference between those solutions, and why is using bladder control pads more efficient in incontinence? Blood and urine have different consistence, so the absorbent product should be different as well.
Notice what is the difference between ordinary sanitary napkins and Seni Lady bladder control pads:

Seni Lady bladder control pads: |
smell |
Do not protect from the unpleasant smell. |
They have special Odour Stop feature preventing the unpleasant smell from developing. |
freshness |
Require frequent changing due to low absorbency. |
High absorbency – up to 4x higher than in the case of ordinary period pads, helps to stay fresh for hours. |
adjustment to the body after exposure to wetness |
The absorbent core may cluster and the pad may become deformed after exposure to urine. |
Anatomical shape adjusts to the body and fits well even after wetting the absorbent core. |
speed and efficiency of absorption/ the feeling of dryness |
The initial absorption is quick, but the moisture returns when pressure is applied. The absorption only occurs in the places where the urine meets the pad. The surface may remain wet and feel unpleasant to the touch. |
The wetness is distributed over the pad’s surface and into the absorbent core thanks to the EDS distributing nonwoven layer. The absorption is quick and the wetness doesn’t return when pressure is applied so the top layer of the pad stays dry. |
skin safety |
Higher risk of skin irritation due to constant exposure to wetness. |
