Best adult diapers/pads for post prostate surgery
My husband is having his prostate removed soon and is very worried about managing incontinence. Please share what adult diapers/pads worked best for you (absorption, odor, comfort) immediately after the catheter was removed and then during further recovery. Thank you!

I had prostrate surgery 21 years ago and have had incontenance problems ever since up until March when I had a PROACT procedure but over those 20 plus years I have tried everything and have found that TENA Men's Overnight Extra Coverage was about the only thing that worked for me I was using 6 to 8 pads per day and now only 2 per day. I walk 10,000 steps each morning and I used to have to change pads about half way thru. I am an Army vet and the VA tried to provide pads and we went thru 6 or 8 different ones and they did not have a contract for TENA and they could not provide them. Of all the ones I have used the TENA are the best. I would have the same surgery today because I have had 20 plus years of a wonderful life. Except my DR. did not tell me that I would face this problem.
