Try Poise® Pads FREE And #RecycleYourPeriodPad Into Fabulousness

April 7, 2015 in Self Care

poise

I am about to talk about something a tad embarrassing, however, this is something 1 in 3 women have experienced. That’s very common. So here goes…Light Bladder Leakage, also known as LBL. Sound familiar? I know I went through some serious LBL after I had my kiddos and still do from time to time. My pelvic floor muscles just haven’t been the same since I popped out those three little sweethearts.

WHAT CAUSES LBL?

Just as no two women are alike, there’s no single reason that LBL happens. Some of the most common things that lead to uninvited leaks include:

• Physical changes from childbirth, pregnancy, hysterectomy or menopause
• Being overweight
• Complications from surgery, stroke, or chronic diseases like diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS) or Parkinson’s disease
• Bladder or urinary tract infections
• Bladder irritants (certain foods and beverages)

HOW CAN I BEST MANAGE MY LBL?

Women deserve the best options for managing LBL. Whether you leak a little when you laugh, or sometimes have a sudden urge to go, Poise gives you one less thing to worry about any time of day or night. Our pads and liners are specifically designed for LBL, which makes them an easy choice for the 1 in 3 women with light bladder leaks.

FIND YOUR PERFECT PRODUCT

Stay fresh and confident with Poise® pads and liners. They’re designed specifically for Light Bladder Leakage (LBL), which make them an easy choice for the 1 in 3 women who experiences LBL.

POISE THIN SHAPE PADS

Designed to move with your body, new Poise Thin-Shape pads feature Super Absorbent Material (SAM) and a Thin-Flex design for extraordinary protection that’s still 3x drier than period pads to help you take care of leaks with confidence.

So ditch the big bad period pads by recycling them! You can make some amazing slippers like we did!

    I don’t have leakage issues, but there is a whole group of moms in my zumba class who do & there is always a collective sigh when a song with jumps comes on!

    That is such a clever way to recycle your pads. It’s definitely a topic that should be discussed more.

    They actually look like slippers too. I’d say that’s an effective use of unused pads!
