Tena, Amazon basics and Depends come up a lot. I used the Depends Shield pads for about 2 months after RP..they worked very well until I got a bit rushed on one "install" and ended up sticking the adhesive pad to my penis. NOT FUN.

My husband has tried them all since 2005, and has been pleased with the Amazon brand. We get them on the subscribe and save program. It's a savings and delivered to our door.

I use Depend. It’s a brief that’s comfortable and more or less invisible. It got the best ratings of several reviews I saw.

I have been using "PROTECHDRY Washable & Reusable Urinary Incontinence Cotton Boxer Brief Underwear" available on Amazon. They work well as long as you only have moderate leakage.

Used Tena in different sizes/thicknesses for years and found them to provide the most protection b/c of their shape. Saved from having to do that any longer by getting an AUS--a life changer.

I found the pull ups much better than pads. Use Depends Real-Fit. Comfortable and no leakage.

Tena is the best. The shape actually fits naturally. Depends are odd geometry, and I haven't tried the Amazons yet. However, I've struggled to find the best (snug) fitting boxer briefs. Fruit of the Loom are the go to for now but they stretch out during the day.

I use Tena incontinence boxer briefs which I bought on Amazon. They wash well and are grand for lighter incontinence levels.

Thanks, BcgKelly. To you other Tena users here: are you referring to the pads or the briefs/underwear? And which Amazon brand? Thanks.

If you have a Kroger store near you, their store brand works great and is cheaper than the Big Brands.

Charlie, I will try them. I will get my SBRT in two weeks. So far, I am testing a package of Amazon Basics for practice and am pleased with them. I like to use brands other than Amazon in order to maintain a bit of competition.
