Alpha Lipoic to help with incontinence.

PML - I haven't seen Poise pads so my questions will be somewhat misinformed.
Do those numbers reflect absorbency or physical dimensions?
Are the pads stacked together for a days outing?
Or worn singly and disposed of as needed?
And what purpose does the tp serve?
Last, is your configuration of pads up to a sudden emptying of 2 cups or urine at once?
Thanks for any details.

Hi Notmoff,
The Poise numbers reflect their length. They are all very absorbent. I stack them one on top of the other with folded up toilet paper on top of that. The toilet paper is easily discarded when it is soiled and then, replaced. Depending on your urine flow, is where the number of pads used comes in. You have to experiment to determine what works best for you. These pads aren't cheap so the toilet paper deflects the cost somewhat. However, these days toilet paper isn't cheap either. It also depends on how much liquid you drink. You need to find a balance between how much liquid to drink and not becoming dehydrated. Let me know if I can be of any more help.
