Medline ContourPlus Bladder Control Pads, Ultimate Absorbency, 8 x 17 Inches, Bag of 28

Easily the best incontinence pad available. Better than any men’s or women’s pad on the market. Super comfortable and does the job perfectly. I prefer the ultimate absorbency. Yes, it’s longer and maybe thicker, but it contours the body well. They also make an excellent double by placing one inside your diaper or pull up with the adhesive paper still on. Do not stick it down. When it’s wet, simply pull it out and you now have a dry pull up or diaper. A very discreet way to change when out in public!

I would highly recommend these pads for comfort, security, and practicality during postpartum recovery. These are way better and cheaper than the depends diapers I used my last pregnancy recovery. Those were always leaking and I felt wetness constantly. With these pads, they are so comfortable and think and conform the shape of my body and are nice and long. I feel confident and secure wearing these and they are great for postpartum. If it works for me I’m sure it would be great for other purposes also .

I have a medical condition called Incontinence. I needed to find a special absorbent pad to fit my personal needs. Medline ultimate pads are great. The pads are soft quite absorbent and comfortable. I feel very confident while wearing the pads. The price is very good for my budget. Ladies try them and you will feel the same as I do. VZ

Have to say, my first time trying a larger pad. I'm a grandfather that loves his beer. I've also got a 4 year old grandson that loves to go to the local park. The trip at the end of our street takes around 8 minutes with he on his bike, me walking. Sure as hell, ... within 10 minutes I have to go. I should know better, but that's beside the point. I was using the 'dribble pads', but was still displaying a wet spot by the time we got home, in a rush, but who wants to read about my bladder problem? These are a bulky item, but they work. It's just going to take me a little bit of time to get used to them, ... as they are way larger than the 'dribble' pads I was using earlier. Pros: Great absorbency with a bit of hesitation to absorb the warm fluids as one goes, ... but it gets absorb super fast. The pads, though larger than what I was wearing takes a bit to get used to, ... as it's more shaped for a women for who cares, as its a needed item, so adjust accordingly to ones undergarment. For the price, ... a decent product from what I can see, and a definite help when one has to go, and has to find a bathroom. Holds at least .5 cup of output, ... and .75 cup when one just can't hold it any longer. The fit is okay, a bit of a front 'bump' when dry, ... not much more after the fact when 'used'. Worth the funds for those like me that have to occupy a situation, or driving making multiple stops before finding a restroom. No matter ones age, when one needs to go, they need to go. Works better than being stopped by the local 'PD' for taking a leak by the road, or worse, exposing ones-self in a so called 'public area'. Not something I'll wear everyday, ... but can use when I think they might be needed, ... ever get a 4 year old to a park who hates to leave? That's what I use these for. UPDATE: 2 DAYS POST RECEIVING I guess I should have known better, buying a pad 'CONTORED' for a females anatomy, but they were listed under the 'MALE' category, ... either way, they leaked this afternoon, from the sides, and I had a large patch of urine within my pants, needed to change 'em out, my pants, not the pad [though it was obviously wet]. NOT FOR THE MALE ANATOMY, ... so now I'll still use them, just to get rid of the supply I have. If you're a male, look for something more structured for the male area. These might work well for females [then the leak factor], they do absorb, ... just not within my male feature [or any other male from what I've seen]. Maybe if we males just directed our 'output' in a downward direction, ... but ''OUCH'', who wants to sit that way? I'll look for another pad that is male worthy.

THESE ARE TERRIBLE, they cost me far more money than the cost of the pack because they ruined some of my clothes, multiple pairs of my underwear have to be thrown out so I wouldn't mind a full refund and some reimbursement to buy some new undergarments because underwear are far more expensive than pads & I have to throw at least 4 pairs out. The pads bunch, lift, crumple up, stick in on themselves, flip up & stick to your butt or immediately scrunch to the side & bulge out of your underwear so they don't protect anything. I can't even really tell you about absorption other than it can't work properly if a pad doesn't stay in place and constantly shifts around so it doesn't protect your clothes, maybe if they had more than a one inch wide sticky strip that's supposed to keep a pad that's 5-6 inches wide in one spot. These are not individually wrapped so forget just throwing one in your purse in case you're out and happen to have an accident which is exactly what incontinence pads are for, you'll have to carry them around in a ziplock sandwich baggie or risk whatever is floating around in your purse or backpack getting all over in the pad, oh & as soon as you sweat or get any moisture on the pad even if it's only long enough to immediately go to the bathroom and change it causes the sticky strip to peel off and stay behind in your underwear I've tried everything and it will not come off the material, it also leads to the pad ripping in the process. They don't protect against odor, even if they did as soon as you remove them when the sticky strip rips off the pad just falls apart and any trapped odor is released anyway, do you know how disgusting it is to try to dispose of an incontinence pad because you've sneezed or coughed & urine encased particles are falling out because the pad has ripped apart? In my case I had surgery and stood up from the operating room table after 3 hours of being under so I had a minor leak, these were all I had so I had no choice but to use them. I went to the bathroom to get changed & when I tried removing the pad from my underwear (which they were kind enough to let me keep on specifically for the pad) the strip ripped off in my underwear, then I was stuck in a hospital bathroom in post-op with a pad that had urine in it that completely ripped apart and the contents inside fell out all over the floor, I had to crack the door open and request somebody rifle around in my belongings bag to get me a new pair of underwear then try my best to clean up the mess the pad left all over the floor with a fresh incision in my neck, fresh out of surgery trying to clean your shredded incontinence pad off of a hospital bathroom floor is not exactly the cleanest way to be leaving surgery and yes of course I could scrub my hands & did but it was really embarrassing and degrading. In the future I would absolutely take panty liners, period pads, paper towels, toilet paper or newspaper wrapped in my underwear, I would take wrapped up hay or leaves over these things ever again. I cannot stress highly enough that if you value your clothes and don't want to risk having a leak that just goes right around a crumpled up pad do not buy these.

While these booster pads are very adequate pads for incontinence, my favorite part is that the adhesive strip runs completely from end-to-end!! This may seem like a small feature - and indeed, it's the only brand I've ever found it on in 6 decades of using sanitary pads - but when positioning your pants up in place. this pad actually stays where it belongs, instead of folding down into your underwear. These are the only ones I'll ever purchase again.

Way to big- like a premie diaper. Might work well but not at all what I wanted which was a thick but small pad. Well made, but too bulky. They could work well for someone managing incontinence. I wanted them for sanitary use

I like these booster pads. They are a bit longer and stick to the brief the whole length. BUT I very much dislike that they were shipped in just the product packing that clearly identifies the product. I consider this a major invasion of privacy.
