Small unexpected leaks are due to a physiological process. For your comfort, TENA has developed TENA Discreet, ultra-discreet towels specially adapted for urinary leaks.

Urinary leaks, let’s talk about it
Anyone can be affected by urine leakage. However, scientific studies show that women are more exposed than men, especially to menopause. 20% of them are affected by stress urinary incontinence, with a maximum peak between 55 and 60 years1. Why complex? It is a natural and frequent phenomenon.
These small leaks can be triggered by physical exertion, a sneeze, a cough or a simple giggle. To prevent this from happening, some women use sanitary pads, but these protections are not suitable for urinary leakage. Indeed, they are intended to retain the thick flow of the rules, their effectiveness is therefore reduced in the case of more fluid flow because their absorption is insufficient. If your leaks are heavier than a teaspoon, the sanitary napkins will no longer be able to meet your needs. The right solution to have a light mind? Opt for suitable protections.
