Is incontinence only a private matter?

Do you have problems with urinary incontinence? Do you know the feeling of needing to pee two minutes after you’ve just been to the toilet to empty your bladder? Or are you one of the many who feel the urge to pee, and when you see the still water in the toilet bowl, the urge comes so quickly that a large part ends up in your pants instead of in the toilet? Then you share the fate with many men with urinary incontinence! And women too – incontinence is a common issue among both men and women.

Nevertheless, many people think: Isn’t it too private to talk about having problems with controlling urination? Urinary incontinence is often perceived as something a bit embarrassing and shameful, and something you don’t want to talk about. But our advice is to share your concerns – talk to your doctor and especially with your partner, if you have one. A man with urination problems is not alone. It also affects the partner, who often has to adjust some aspects of their life to the limitations that urinary incontinence can impose. It might become difficult for you as a couple to go to a restaurant together, attend concerts, or go to the cinema, because you always need to be able to quickly get to the toilet.

What does my partner say?

Can you talk to your partner about your urination problem? We encourage you to start a conversation because if you face things together, you can find the right solution much more easily. There are several types of urinary incontinence treatments that can be used for male urinary incontinence. The first thing most people think of are male diapers and incontinence pads, uridomes, or perhaps underwear for male incontinence with drip barrier or built-in diaper. Not something most people think of with pleasure, but if you share your concerns with your partner, together you might find the best solution for your urination problems.

The Urox system is a completely different way to handle urination problems. With the help of a collection cup that sits securely around your penis in the special underwear that comes with the system, your urine flows into a bag that you attach to your leg. This way, you regain your freedom and avoid annoying drips in your underwear, accidents with sudden urges, and you both avoid having to frequently clean around the toilet because you didn’t quite make it in time.

Does Urox work for all types of male incontinence?

As you are probably aware, there are different forms of incontinence. There is urge incontinence, also known as overactive bladder, stress incontinence, and overflow incontinence. And the Urox system works optimally for all forms of incontinence. You can choose to use Urox in a way that you simply pee into the collection cup when you need to, and then empty the urine bag when needed. This way, you are always safe. If you suddenly feel the urge to pee, you don’t have to rush to the toilet or break all rules by stopping in the emergency lane on the highway, you just pee and empty the urine bag later when it is convenient for you.

You can also choose to use the Urox incontinence system in a way that you have the collection cup ‘mounted’ all the time, but remove it if you need to pee and can easily reach the toilet. But we actually recommend that you use the Urox incontinence solution all the time, so you never experience peeing in your pants. And Urox works for all forms of urinary incontinence.

Does Urox make life easier for my partner?

Is it only you who benefits from Urox if you have incontinence problems? No, your partner also benefits, as you will experience better hygiene in the bathroom, less need for cleaning, and you will both regain the freedom to go out together and do the things you always enjoyed. You will also experience fewer frictions between you, as it can often be stressful for a relationship if one party has a urination problem and perhaps doesn’t really know how to handle it.

So be open and talk to your partner about your urge to pee and incontinence problems – together you can find the best solutions. Remember that Urox is an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution for male urination problems – and the joy of having control over your incontinence benefits both of you.
