Contend™ FAQ

Contend™ is a protective cover designed for bodily mobile adult men experiencing mild dripping to small amounts of urine leaks throughout the day. One single protective cover can absorb up to 125 ml, which is equivalent to approximately half a cup.

Contend™ features a leak-tight pocket with an absorber inside it. Each protective cover can absorb up to 125 ml – equivalent to approximately half a cup. We recommend that the cover is replaced with a new one when it starts to feel wet or has reached its full capacity.

Contend™ is available in two flex collar opening width sizes: Regular fit and Large fit. The difference between the two sizes is the diameter of the opening width of the flex collar. Tests have shown that the Regular fit opening width will suit most adult men. If you are in doubt, we recommend you choose the Regular fit, unless you usually require larger sizes. The liquid capacity is up to 125 ml for both sizes – equivalent to approximately half a cup.

Contend™ is the new and innovative alternative to pads – a protective cover to wear over your penis if you experience mild urine dripping or smaller leakages throughout the day. Contend™ is for single use and one single protective cover can be worn until the protective cover reaches its full capacity or feels wet and for no longer than 24 hours at a time.

Contend™ features a leak-tight pocket with an absorber made from polymeric material – a material that has super absorbent qualities, and can absorb up to 125 ml. This combination offers double security against leakage.

Yes, the Contend™ flex collar ensures a comfortable fit around the penis and keeps the protective cover securely in place during wear. Remove the protective cover before bathing, showering, or swimming.

Each protective cover can be worn until the absorber has reached its full capacity or feels wet. Depending on personal preferences and how much you drip, you may want to exchange the cover one or more times a day. Each cover can be worn for a maximum duration of 24 hours but should be replaced as needed. As the absorber inside Contend™ absorbs urine, it expands. Once Contend™ has reached its full maximum capacity of 125 ml, it will have expanded 3-4 cm, which means that there is less room for the penis inside the pocket. It may at this point also feel wet and heavy. You should always remove Contend™ if your skin becomes irritated.

Yes, Contend™ can also be worn during the night until the absorber has reached its full capacity and feels wet. 

Contend™ is for adult and bodily mobile men with mild-to-moderate urinary leakage. If you experience mild to moderate urinary leakage, you drip approximately 15-150 ml urine over the course of a day. The amount and frequency may vary, but to put it into perspective, it’ll range from a tablespoon a day to a full glass. One single Contend™ protective cover can absorb up to 125 ml – equivalent to approximately half a cup.
