I had SBRT and incontinence was not a problem. However, during the times that I had to urinate frequently, before a long drive, I put on a pad -- just in case I had the urge and could not make a quick stop to say gas station. I never thought of putting an underwear on outside the pad. I thought the pad was enough, no problem with the regular long pants.

I was fortunate with only moderate side effects during 6 weeks of EBRT. I bought some Depends, and never used them. But I did take to keeping an empty plastic peanut butter jar (with lid) and a small towel in my car at all times - my "portable urinal," with the towel for "modesty" if I was stuck in traffic. Never had to use it, but was more at ease knowing it was there.
