I’m a 10 1/2 year foley Cath user. I have my foley changed weekly. I don’t reuse bags for more than a week. I average 1-2 UTI’s a year. I change from the night bag to leg bag in the morning and back to the night bag at night. I sanitize the bag I’m taking off with hot water flush then with bleach & water to let sit for at least 30 minutes. I clean the tube ends with alcohol at every change. It cleans the end and I also believe it helps prevent the tube from coming detached from the catheter.

Can be done. I’ve lived with a foley since June 2014. You can even enjoy penetrative sex (I’m a heterosexual male)

I have a few pairs still that I wear for the wife on occasion. She doesn’t like me in diapers even though I’ve been medically incontinent for over 10 years.

I’m in Maine. About an hour from Manchester.

I have bladder issues. My wife willingly changes me on average 25-30 times a month. I started having bladder issues 10 years ago due to a medical mishap. Prior to that, I was a DL. adjusting to having bladder accidents and wearing 24/7 for me was fairly easy compared to most who have to suddenly adapt due to a medical need. She is good about changing me, despite not loving my need for diapers.

Have you spoken to the urologist about maybe getting a TURP/TURBN to improve your flow? Do you prefer to wear the cath or a diaper?
No, my flow rate is fine and I mostly empty. I wear both the foley and always wear a diaper over it to support things and protect from occasional leakage by the catheter. I don’t wear regular underwear anymore because I leak, not huge amounts but small amounts over the course of the day.
-
When I’m without the foley, I can hold it for a period of time, but usually leak for 15-20 minutes after using the bathroom. I became a foley user after extreme urinary frequency and all the OAB meds weren’t working. The Urology office recommended I go to the ER and get a foley inserted. I slept through the night for the first time in weeks. I’ve been a foley user ever since.

I’m a 10 year foley cath user. My bladder is trashed.
my body doesn’t tolerate anything but 100% silicone foleys. Latex foleys cause my bladder to bleed. I usually have my foleys in for a week at a time. I usually have a day without it and then it is changed after a day without it. I can pee without it but in extremely uncomfortable. My recommendation is Bard 100% silicone “Lubri-Sil” I use 16,18, and occasionally 20F. I’ve been using mostly 16’s because that’s what I’ve been able to get from my medical supplier. -
I’ve been following this for a couple weeks. I’m very interested to see how you make out. I’m an interstitial cystitis and OAB patient and I have to live with a foley cath to manage my condition. Of course, I occasionally have leaks around the foley so I’m in diapers 24/7 as well. I don’t mind the diapers or the foleys. I had a 22F once, it was huge and felt like a garden hose when the nurse put it in. Normally I live with a 16.

Just touching base here as it’s been quiet as of late. I’m still here and still leaky.

8 year foley user here. I routinely wear a 16 or an 18 and don’t notice the difference. My nurse has used a 20 on two recent occasions due to some blockage issues with the smaller foleys. I do have a 22 in my supply bin but she hasn’t needed to insert that right now. The 20 wasn’t uncomfortable for me, but the stat lock needed to be modified to fit the larger catheter.

Southern Maine on the NH border here as well 5 minutes from Portsmouth

I’m in southern Maine, Kittery.

I’m still here. Been medically Incontinent for the last 6 years. OAB and interstitial cystitis are my diagnoses. I’m full time 24/7 diaper user, and have had to go to Foley catheters nearly full time to manage the urinary frequency.
Im in Kittery, Me 5 1/2 miles from Portsmouth, NH

I’m glad it went well. Next step is to wear around her. And then if she’s comfortable with that maybe she will change you.

Tell her before she moves in!! I told my girlfriend, well actually I went to sleep with a diaper on and she came home late at night and found me sleeping in a tena super. She wasn’t pleased and it took a long time for her to come to terms with it. Now I have had bladder issues since Jan/Feb 2014 and have been 24/7 ever since. I was just a DL at that time, though.
-
I’m also in southern Maine I am incontinent and was a DL prior to the bladder issues. I’m in the York/Kittery/Portsmouth, NH area.

Diapers and sex
in Our Lifestyle Discussion
Posted
I’m 24/7 due to incontinence of the bladder. I’m usually stripped down to just a diaper and she usually just un tapes the diaper to get to my equipment. The diaper is usually left under me. We finish her then hit the showers. She usually will diaper me and put my foley back in when we’re done. I’m a 10 1/2 year foley user since a medical mishap in 2014. We can have sex with the foley in if it’s in the middle of the catheter cycle. We learned this by accident in 2017 when we were fooling around and she ended up allowing me to penetrate her with the foley in. We didn’t know it was possible. I do leak small amounts without the foley in so usually need a chux or a diaper under me.
