Not Good News after prostate biospy when MRI didn't look too bad

No it weighs in ounces. If I wanted it would do grams, but I want ounces.
I don't understand why just about everyone wants to use ml? I just stuck in my ways and want ounces.
I did see if weighing water grams and ml are equal. But only water.
I was told no way using kitchen scales.

Who told you that about digital kitchen scales ? 😵💫
Grams are equal to ml - yes for water but urine is about 99.9% water so it definitely applies. You are not doing scientific experiment in a lab but weighting pads to see the trend .
Also, milliliters are used in urology office and PT places when they talk about level of incontinence so that is why I suggested milliliters - it might be handy if you ever need to go to incontinence specialist, although I am sure that doctor would know how to do conversion from ounces to ml..
I bought a scale on Amazon ($16) and discarded it after it served it's purpose in a bathroom. While it was used it was wiped with alcohol wipes every time it was used and my husband never let pad soak so much that it would be soggy. It is not good to wear soaking wet pads .
