Incontinence Aids

## Feel Confident and Secure with Incontinence Care

Many men and women experience incontinence—also known as involuntary urination. Some may notice minor leaks when they cough, sneeze, or exercise, while others feel a sudden, intense urge that makes it difficult to reach the bathroom in time. At Seniorshop, we offer a wide range of products and solutions to help manage incontinence, giving you peace of mind every day.

## What Is Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is a common condition, particularly among older adults. In fact, up to 25% of seniors are affected, with women being most commonly impacted—though many men also experience it.

Incontinence is the medical term for involuntary urination and can be triggered by a variety of factors, including:

- Weakening of the bladder’s closing mechanism
- Overactive bladder muscles
- Side effects of medication
- Bodily changes related to aging
- Urinary tract infections
- High blood sugar, leading to increased thirst and fluid intake

While incontinence is often associated with advanced age, it's surprisingly common among younger women and, to a lesser extent, younger men as well.

Generally, there are two main types of incontinence: stress incontinence and urge incontinence.

- **Stress Incontinence** occurs when weakened pelvic floor muscles cause urine to leak during physical activities, or when coughing, sneezing, or laughing.
- **Urge Incontinence** (sometimes called “tranginkontinens”) is marked by a sudden and intense need to urinate, which can make it difficult to get to the toilet in time.

No matter what type of incontinence you experience, the impact on daily life can be significant. That’s why effective support—and the right aids—can make a real difference to your comfort and wellbeing.

## Incontinence – Regain Your Quality of Life

A major challenge with incontinence is the stigma and embarrassment that often surrounds it, which can impact both emotional wellbeing and social life. But there’s no reason to feel ashamed—many people face the same issue, and there’s plenty of help available, from medical treatment to practical solutions that minimize inconvenience and restore your sense of security.

We are committed to breaking the taboo, dispelling myths and misconceptions, and creating an open conversation about incontinence and how it can be managed.

## Adult Diapers, Absorbent Pads, and Underwear

At Seniorshop, you’ll find a comprehensive selection of incontinence products designed to deliver comfort and protection throughout the day. Here’s a quick overview of our top solutions, helping you choose the best fit for your needs:

### Adult Diapers and Pads

Adult diapers and incontinence pads are reliable solutions for leaks, absorbing and containing moisture so you can go about your day with confidence. Our selection includes a variety of absorbency levels and designs, so you can find the protection that suits you best.

Many of our adult diapers are unisex, but we also carry styles developed especially for men or for women. You’ll always see clear product details to help you make the right choice.

TENA® is a name almost everyone recognizes, known for disposable incontinence pads and panty liners for both men and women. Their high-quality products are among our customers’ most trusted choices for reliable incontinence protection.

### Absorbent Bed and Chair Pads

Incontinence pads aren’t limited to personal wear—special absorbent underpads can be placed on your favorite armchair, car seat, or bed to protect against leaks and prevent damage. Mattress protectors or incontinence sheets also defend your bedding while providing a soft, comfortable surface for rest.

### Absorbent Underwear and Swimwear

If you’re looking for a more discreet option, try our range of incontinence underwear designed for both men and women. Perfect for those dealing with light leaks who want to avoid disposable pads, these garments have sewn-in absorbent inserts to catch any accidents. Most can be washed at 80–90°C to ensure freshness and hygiene.

If odor is a concern, you’ll also find specialized products designed to neutralize and eliminate odors, rather than just covering them up.

## Tips to Prevent Involuntary Urination

It’s very common to experience frequent or unexpected urination as you get older—especially for women, who statistically make up the majority of those affected.

Unfortunately, many people don’t seek medical advice and may withdraw from social situations to avoid revealing their symptoms. Remember, there is help available—both from your healthcare provider and in the form of practical aids.

Simple pelvic floor exercises and bladder training can be very effective treatments. In some cases, medication or surgery may be appropriate, depending on individual needs. That’s why talking openly with your doctor is so important—so you can get the right support and avoid unnecessary discomfort.

No matter the underlying cause or severity of your incontinence, there are always ways to improve your situation. The right aids can play a big role in boosting your sense of security and restoring your quality of life.

## How the Right Aids Make a Difference

Incontinence products aren’t just practical tools—they’re life-improving solutions that can bring freedom, comfort, and reassurance to your everyday routine. They help you stay active and confident, reduce worry, and allow you to focus on what matters most.

This sense of security is what incontinence aids are all about. With the right protection, you can let go of concerns about leaks and odor, and enjoy daily life—your way.
