Did you know that over 51 million American women experience bladder leakage? That’s 1 in 3 American women and I bet you either know someone with this issue or have it yourself. There are many reasons why women suffer from bladder leakage including pregnancy, childbirth, and even diabetes, it’s not just a problem for older people.
I know for me it was pregnancy and childbirth, having two children has wreaked havoc on my bladder. It’s so funny because I remember my Mom always rushing to the bathroom and telling my sister and I in a joking manner that we were the reason, now I know how true that was and it’s not so funny when it happens to you. That 1 in 3 was now me.
If you are experiencing this issue, first you should talk to your Doctor, they will offer a variety of ways to help and how to deal with the problem. My doctor suggested a magnesium supplement and kegel exercises to help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which helps a lot, but sometimes you just want that extra protection. Depend Silhouette Active Fit briefs are just that protection! I don’t have to worry about any embarrassing moments while I am out and about. The best part? The new design is super thin and lightweight so you can’t even tell you are wearing them through your clothes. They look and feel just like underwear, in fact, they have a lower rise to help have that underwear fit and feel.
This design is definitely not what you think of when you think of the Depend of the past, these are not adult diapers, but discreet underwear.
Just take a look………
See how they look like underwear, and they come in two colors, black and beige.
Here’s what they look like on. Not what you expected, right?
Here are some tips you can do to help manage bladder leakage:
