Thanks for the advice. Glad you’re doing better. One dumb question. Do you wear undies while you have the catheter? Second, should I wait and purchase them while wearing the catheter? My surgery is next week and I was going to get them now. Your advice makes me think I should wait. Thanks.

Undies with a catheter is your choice. As I recall I did. But comfort with that hose is the decider.
Buying supplies now is up to you. I'd only suggest you get like one pack of each of whatever you'd like to try. That way you can change your mind without a bunch of product you may not like.
It could take a little time to find out what you like and how your body reacts to all the surgery, etc. Take it easy and proceed with what works for you.
All the best.

I had surgery June 12th this year and I learned fast no underwear with catheter in. Just short sweatpants, they were soft and much more comfortable to me. Use plenty for antibacterial salve to keep tube sliding in and out without discomfort. This is for when you move around and as your penis changes in size through the day or night.
