Choosing the Right Small Pad for Light Incontinence
Small shaped pads (often called bladder weakness liners or insert pads) are specifically designed for active individuals who require discreet leakage control without wearing full pull-up pants or large form pads.
How They Differ From Sanitary Towels: Unlike standard feminine hygiene towels, small medical pads contain specialized super-absorbent polymers (SAP) formulated to absorb thinner, faster-flowing urine instantly while continuously neutralizing ammonia odours and preventing skin irritation.
How to Wear: Small pads feature a peel-off adhesive backing line. Simply secure the pad lengthwise inside closely-fitting standard cotton underwear.
Absorbency Ratings: Choose based on drop ratings. Micro and Mini sizes work best for small drips or cough/sneeze leaks, while Normal, Extra, and Maxi sizes provide higher absorbency for surges or light urge incontinence.
