  • Why choose reusable pads for light leaks?

    Disposable bladder-leak products often rely on plastic-backed materials that can cause skin irritation. GladRags take a simpler approach: soft, washable cotton that can be used again and again.

    • Soft cotton against your skin

    • Wash and reuse instead of throwing away a pad after every wear

    • No plastic waterproof liner

    • Easy to use with your regular underwear and routine

    For many people with light leaks, the biggest benefit is having a comfortable pad that feels more like clothing and less like a plastic-y medical product.

  • Is GladRags a good fit for your bladder leaks?

    GladRags can work well for stress incontinence - the small, unexpected leaks that can happen when you cough, sneeze, laugh, exercise, lift something heavy. They can also be useful for light leaking after pregnancy or during perimenopause and menopause.

    These pads are designed for light leakage, not a full bladder release. If you routinely soak through a pad quickly or need protection for a full void, a product designed specifically for heavier incontinence will likely be a better fit.

Works well for light incontinence

I use (day pads) for light incontinence. Store bought pads made me break out in a yeast/fungal infection on my girly bits. These do not chafe and I can quickly get a new pad as soon as one becomes too moist. Best of all, I do not feel guilty about throwing pads in a landfill.

Love these for light urinary incontinence

These pads wash and dry well right with my underwear load. They are very comfortable and suspect they will be great for sports also. For some reason I have noticed that I have been less incontinent with these pads than with the throw away pads.
