At TENA, we talk to thousands of men every year. This helps us truly understand how men think and feel about incontinence. Our studies show that there is a lack of knowledge around the prevalence of urine leakage. There is also a lack of awareness about the support available. In fact, 2 out of 3 men are unaware that they can buy incontinence products specifically designed for men(3).
Our studies also show that while urine leakage may be a sensitive topic, 3 in 5 men want to discuss bladder weakness with a healthcare professional(4). In addition, 1 in 3 men would prefer to speak to a pharmacist than book a doctor’s appointment(5). This shows that, as a pharmacist, you have a unique opportunity to leverage your role as a trusted health expert and help men stay active.
