This never happens on trusted websites, only here or on very shady pages that overloads you with popups.

This is my latest stent. Ruler in metric scale.

 

If you want to know how I make it, please check out my account Raelindiapers on fetlife.com (you need to subscribe). In the picture section you will find a lot of snapshots of my work in progress. I think they are self explanatory. If not please let me know.

Doesn't the bends undo themselves when you boil it to clean it ? Or is just alcohol enough ?

[Diaper Disposal]

If you rip out the shell of the diaper and throw the absorbent material (s.a.p. and paper pulp) in the compost it will compost pretty quickly.
Way better for the environnement, for the house smell, and the empty shell weight practically nothing.

Applying lotion or baby oil to the area before wearing could help as a barrier.
Maybe a long soapy bath after cleaning up in the shower ?

[Urethra mould for stents?]

Hi folks,

I've been fiddling with caths and stents for a while, with the infos i learned here in the different threads.
However, my many tries, i can't find the right stent shape, length and angles that works for me.
So i'm searching for a solution to mould or print my urethra shape.

I'm thinking about blocking the balloon of a cath with some rigid tubing over the ballon, then cleaning, inserting and filling the inflate line with some sort of liquid/medical glue that will preserve urethra shape after setting. I'd make sure the ballon isn't inflated before letting it sit so i don't end up with it stuck inside.

I understand the risks, if the balloon fills a little, it will get stuck.
Anyone has an idea on how to achieve this with some relative safety ?

Thanks!

[Close To Incontinence With A Catheter]

Has anyone with female genitalia (cis women, trans men or any people with vaginas) ever tried an holey foley?
I'd love to read theses people's experiences with caths or holey foleys, would love to experiment on some risk aware partners, I'm mostly concerned by the increased possibilities of getting UTIs .

@Fuzz I still use a stent with three angles. But in my search for an unmovable stent I tweaked it a little a few weeks ago. What really helped a lot was lowering the top angle so the part of the stent inside the bladder is straight. ThIs way the top angle sits just between the prostate and the inner sphincter. I found out that hooking the stent in the bladder with a high curve is not that important to prevent it from sliding out. But when there is no curve inside the bladder there is no longer a chance of pulling the stent upwards when the bladder is filling up and going up in the stomach.

I also reduced the angle of the lowest curve. This way the lower part of the stent Is pointing a little upwards and sort of hooks in the urethra around the outer sphincter. Until now it seems the stent stays put no matter what I do or how full the bladder is.

I will wear it another week before removing the retrieval line. I have to be absolutely sure the stent will never migrate inside the bladder.

I think the eye at the bottom of your stent may have been the cause of the bleeding you have recently experienced. I have experimented with those in my early years of stent use, but they always caused great discomfort. 
 

My latest stent. The ruler has a metric scale (centimeters).

Thanks for the reply and topic with so much good information!

But is the 90 degrees angle hard to push in and out? I wanna try it but fear it could get stuck...

Are they going totally into your bladder? Any trouble getting it out? I see you have a line on it, just wondered if the edge of the stent catches on the bladder outlet as you pull it out.

The 3 angles stent (the top one in my post) ended up totally inside the bladder. The second one I'm not sure,I think it entered just partially.

This is a risky type of play but they were usually easy to recover with the fishing line. I just pull very slowly while my bladder is full, and I'm usually either able to put it back in place or to it get it out in a splash!

Edit: Got a prototype stuck inside earlier today, had blood when i was pulling, so I went to the ER but i was finally able to recover it peeing and pulling in the restroom.  I hope i didn't hurt anything too bad down there, everything works normally for the moment. So I'm insisting on "do this at your own risk". Not sure i'll give this a go again, I'll just revert back to holey foleys.

[My experience with stents]

Hi!

So having some experience with holey foleys and reading about cathdiap's stent I decided to give it a try.

Made a couple ones, I feel I'm close to a working design but they keep migrating in my bladder when I sleep.

Anyone has suggestions for improvement to stop the migration?

Should I try shorter between bends or silicone cath as a base instead?
