Nocturia: Everything You Need to Know
Nocturia is a condition characterized by frequent urination at night, disrupting sleep. It can result from various causes, including excessive fluid intake, urinary tract infections, bladder dysfunction, or underlying medical conditions like diabetes or heart disease. Common in older adults, it can significantly impact sleep quality and overall well-being.

What is the best overnight diaper for adults?
The best overnight diaper for adults varies based on individual needs, including body shape, level of incontinence, and personal comfort preferences. Key factors to consider when choosing an overnight diaper include fit, as a snug yet comfortable fit prevents leaks; overall absorbency, to ensure protection throughout the night; materials, which should be breathable and gentle on the skin; and design features, such as leak guards and odor control.
Because offers four different overnight absorbency adult diapers to suit various needs:
- Overnight Plus for Women – Designed with a contoured fit for the female body, offering strong absorbency and comfort.
- Overnight Plus for Men – Tailored for the male anatomy, providing targeted protection and maximum absorbency.
- Sensitive Overnight Underwear – A hypoallergenic option made with extra-soft materials for those with sensitive skin.
- Maximum Tabbed Briefs – High-absorbency tabbed briefs with adjustable fasteners for individuals needing the most secure overnight protection.
Choosing the right overnight diaper depends on personal preferences, and it may take some trial and error to find the best fit for a restful, leak-free night.

Choose overnight diapers for full coverage and maximum absorbency, ideal for moderate to heavy incontinence or those needing secure protection. Pull-ups work well for active users, while tabbed briefs are best for limited mobility or caregiver assistance.
Opt for overnight pads or guards for light to moderate incontinence, offering a more discreet option worn inside regular underwear.

How do I choose the right size of incontinence underwear?
How do I choose the right size of incontinence underwear?
Choosing the right size of incontinence underwear is crucial for optimal comfort and effectiveness. To find the appropriate size, you should measure your waist and hip circumference and review our size chart to determine the right size.
Avoid choosing a size that is too tight, as it may lead to discomfort and create pressure points. On the other hand, selecting a size too large could result in inadequate protection and leakage.
A well-fitting incontinence garment should be snug but not overly tight, with proper coverage and containment for your specific body shape and needs.
Can you use period underwear or pads for incontinence?
Can you use period underwear or pads for incontinence?
Period underwear and pads are not ideal for incontinence because they are designed to absorb menstrual flow, which is thicker and released more gradually than urine. While some period underwear or pads can handle light bladder leaks, they typically lack the fast-absorbing materials and waterproof barriers needed to prevent leaks from larger urine releases.
For better protection, incontinence underwear and bladder leak pads are specially designed with higher absorbency, moisture-wicking layers, odor control, and leak guards to keep the skin dry and comfortable. If you experience light incontinence, some period underwear brands offer dual-purpose options, but for moderate to heavy leaks, incontinence-specific pads and underwear are the best choice.
