Incontinence can be a hassle but your underwear shouldn’t be

Over half of women over the age of 50 experience bladder leaks. At 59, I am one of those women.

Experiencing bladder leaks started for me after my pregnancies and deliveries at 37 and 40, and things got better after that. But then when menopause hit in my early 50s, the incontinence came back full force. 

Incontinence can definitely feel like a hassle but how one takes care of it doesn’t have to be! Whether it’s for me or for a loved one who I need to take care of, I choose to use overnight leak protection when I need it. 

Who has the time or energy to be slowed down by incontinence? I certainly won’t let it crimp my style or take away my smile!

A picture is worth a thousand words, so I decided to model the overnight protection underwear so you can see how they look. I can tell you they feel extremely comfortable and secure. 

Because Market underwear and pads are easy to use and dispose of. They have extra absorbency – The Women’s overnight underwear I’m wearing absorbs up to 6 cups of liquid. If you were to choose the Women’s overnight pads, instead, they are still very absorbent as they absorb up to 3 cups of liquid.

I have sensitive skin and these products are latex-free, dermatologist tested, and don’t contain harsh chemicals. This is also very important when it comes to using them on our loved ones. 

I personally have no issue with this, but if you are in any way concerned about discreet delivery, Because Market products will be delivered to your door, and nobody but you will know what’s in the package.

If you want the added convenience and a little savings, then you can schedule monthly deliveries so that you or the loved one you may be caring for will never run out. 

If you are unsure of what product to order, you can order a free starter pack, which includes three pairs of underwear and a pack of pads and travel wipes. This way you don’t have to commit to an entire pack without having tried out the product first. You may also call (800) 213-0175 to order your starter kit or for any questions you may have. 

I hope you or someone you love will take advantage of this!
