Collection: Leakage (Urinary Incontinence) in Men

Urinary incontinence is leaking of urine that you can not control. We at UHS know it is extremely difficult to cope this this condition emotionally and physically for both Males and Females. We also know you are not alone and is more prevalent in our community than you may think!

Men are sometimes reluctant to bring incontinence to the attention of their clinician. Only one in five men with symptoms is likely to seek care, and men are only half as likely as women to seek care. This may be because people feel embarrassed or they may think nothing can be done.

We at UHS have a few devices that may help you control your leakage allowing you to carry on your day without the worry! 

What is a penile compression device?

A penile compression device (commonly called a ‘clamp’) is a small reusable device. Clamps work by compressing or squeezing the urethra which runs along the underside of the penis and through which urine leaves the body. Clamps are available in several different designs including a hinge design that is closed over the penis, a strap or an inflatable cuff that goes around the penis. Clamps can work well for some active men who want a discreet product during the daytime. However, some men find them uncomfortable to wear and they can reduce blood flow in the penis.¹⁸
