About a year or so ago, I started noticing that I was not completely emptying when I would go to the toilet, and I would have to stand there longer and longer. Then I noticed that when I got home and changed, that my underwear was a little moist, but not bad enough to leak through to the pants. Then one night, my wife woke me up, and I had wet the bed. No big deal. I haven't done this since I was 12. Well a couple of more major accidents, and my wife takes me kicking and screaming to our family doctor. She orders some tests, does some poking and prodding, and two weeks later, she tells me that my prostrate is really really large, and that with my previous bedwetting as a child and the meds that I am on, is the reason for the bedwetting and the leaks and small accidents.
We talk about the medicine options and that was the last thing I wanted, already on to many lol. So she said the next best option was protection, and she left the room. I had already purchased some male guards and that was helping. I started to leave and she came back in and handed my wife a bag of stuff and told me that there were some samples of adult incontinence products in there for me to try. I looked in the bag and about freaked, well I did. I was so embarrassed that I walked out and went straight to the car.
So now for the first time in 38 years (I'm 51 now), I am in a diaper at night, and pullups and / or male guards during the day and have been for the past 9 or so months. I am slowly getting used to them. But still don't like it.
