LUNDERG Confidence Clamp - The Original Incontinence Clamp for Men with 3 Removable Top Pads (S, M & L) for Reliable Control and Everyday Confidence - Male Incontinence Products

Another reviewer put it well when they said they never thought they'd resort to using something that looks as "barbaric" as these clamps. Add me to that list. But....when you're dealing with a non-stop dribble all day, and when the flow surges every time you stand up and you don't know if your pad is going to overflow and result in soaking everything out......you need to come up with a solution. And this clamp is a good solution because it puts SOME control back into your life. It will take you several days, if not a week or more, to truly figure out how best to adjust the clamp to balance the objectives of comfort and control. Too tight, and the clamp can be uncomfortable/painful. Too loose, and you don't stop the urine flow. But.....when it's adjusted just right, you don't even feel it on, and you have control over when to loosen the clamp and release urine from the bladder. No more wetness, no more rash, no more fear of overflows and surges, and the number of pads used per day will drop 60-70%. I suggest you try each of the 3 silicon pads provided to see which one works best for you. If I'm going out and about, and want essentially zero urine flow into an incontinence pad, I press down for 2 clicks. If I'm at home and want absolute comfort with some flow into the pad (ex. when I sleep), I only press down for 1 click. Change the position of the clamp on the shaft regularly, and if you get sore, consider putting some Desitin or petroleum jelly on the shaft. You'll get the hang of how to avoid pinching and how many hours you can wait before loosening the clamp and releasing urine. I typically go 4 hours between releases. So....the clamp has been a game-changer for me. I have control, I have greater confidence, and I feel I can do anything I want during the day without fear of surges and overflows. Good luck to you. Incontinence sucks, but this clamp makes a bad situation bearable.

Today, I am ordering my third replacement. Mine broke. I am ordering again because I am so pleased with the performance and results I have with this device, I can’t be without one so I have a spare. I highly recommend this device for men who are incontinent for any reason. It works. It is easy to use and is not uncomfortable to wear. That being said, there are a few things you need to know. The device comes with 3 “stabilizers”: small, medium and large. I would refer to these as “restrictors”, since they apply pressure at a point where they can restrict the flow of urine. If you hold the Large and Medium side-by-side, so you see the letters L and M stamped in the detent, you can clearly see that the medium is bigger than the large. Even the picture in the manual shows the medium looking bigger than the large. A mystery to me… I use the medium stabilizer. When you clamp the unit closed there are 4 levels of tightness. I rationalize that more restriction of flow requires less overall pressure of closure. I clamp to the second notch. Very comfortable. Not too tight but works just right. It can be a work in progress for new users. On one of my units the mounting socket can loose from the bottom bar. Easy to fix with a drop of superglue. To open the clamp, you have to push the lever away from the upper bar posts and down. Bending this lower bar places stress on the bar at the point near the lower stabilizer. After months of constant use this bar will fatigue and clack. See picture. Can’t fix that. Too much stress. Get out your spare and order another. A small cost for the results. I have been using this item for well over two and a half years now with great success and satisfaction. I wear it seven 24.

Looks to be well made. The product is very adjustable. For each size, (S, M, L) there are 4 dependable clip settings, so experience will teach which setting is the best in a dependable way. Without knowing how fast the pads will wear out, durability of pads will not be known until they begin to wear or get old, but in any case, replacement pads are available, but I don't know anything about pricing. One good thing. Because there 3 sizes, and it takes two slightly different pads to use, there is 1 top pad and the choice of 3 bottom pads. Once your habit is established, only one size of the bottom pads will be used, but in the long term, all three sizes use identical pads with S,M, or L internal mounting plastic structure, and apparently one can stretch the bottom pad quite a bit to to put it on the internal plastic structure. This may means that when the bottom pad starts to wear out, potentially you already have two spare bottom pad replacements that could be slipped off their internal mountings and put on the mounting of the size that you use, thus lengthening their life by a factor of three. This does not apply to the top pad as you have one of these. The comfort of wearing the device seems to be OK, so far I have had no problem with circulation, but I have not yet used it enough to find what is best. It is a little hard to tell how tight to make it, but that will become clear with habitual use. The pads with their corresponding internal plastic structures are extremely easy to remove as a unit to clean. The cleaning process promises to be very easy, WITH ONE POSSIBLE CAVEAT for the long term. I don't yet know if this caveat is important or not. The caveat is that the pads are loosely mounted on their corresponding internal structure like a loose glove and if something gets inside, it may take some effort to clean out the insides of the pads and over the long term it might become a source of contamination if you don't. There may be the possibility of urine or water getting inside the pad (e.g. inside the "glove"), although generally I don't think it will necessarily get wet in this way, as things will probably tend to stay dry when device is properly used, but I don't have experience yet to know how this would tend to turn out. If you wash the pads with soup and water, they would have to be well rinsed shaken out and let dry so that water on the inside of the pad didn't eventually mildew. Otherwise wiping off the outside can be very easy without this problem. ONLY if this turns out to be a problem in the long term: It is probably not a good idea to frequently take the pad off of its plastic mounting to clean the insides of the pad and the plastic mounting structure because to take off or put on the pad the mounting structure it would be necessary to stretch the 1/4" hole into the pad to 1 1/4" in order to get it on or off the mounting structure. Clearly this was done in manufacturing without harm to the pad, but it is not really designed to easily or frequently do this between uses. On the other hand with a bit of trouble, if it held up in this kind of manipulation, but once in a long while it may work to turn the pad inside out after taking it off of its plastic mount, and completely clean the insides of the pad and its mount. Generally, so far, I like the device and it solves a several problems for me.

Post having had radical prostatectomy surgery I have been left with a serious urinary incontinence problem. The NHS recommended the use of a Pacey Cuff to help control it. These product only have a life span of circa 6 months and so despite the Pacey Cuff being reasonably effective I did some research on line and decided to give the Lunderg product a go. I've been using the Confidence Clamp for 2 weeks now; for me, it is more comfortable, easier to use and more effective than the Pacey Cuff. It has the added bonus of being significantly less expensive. I work as a courier and get in and out of the cab of my van in excess of 200 times a day, the cuff found it hard to cope with this incessant movement, the Confidence Clamp takes it in its stride. It doesn't 100% control the leakage, my issues is partially stress incontinence and lifting heavy parcels - those in excess of 20kg - will often defeat the clamp but overall it is a huge improvement and I heartily recommend this product.

Se rompe con mucha facilidad poco durable y la calidad no mejora. Hay otras opciones más económicas y duran más, me consta.

I have been suffering from incontinence since having my prostate removal operation over 16 months ago. I have gone through a whole program of pelvic floor exercises which has helped to a degree but the leaking continued. I was going through 3 pads on the average and was getting discouraged. I went to see a urologist to look for options as I have had someone in the family who had similar experience and recovered fully from the incontinence with a "sling" operation. The urologist went through a few options which all involve operations but to my surprise said that while each will improve my incontinence to a different degree they will not cure it totally. He also said that I could try using a penile clamp which is an external device to help control the leaking. I did some researches and ended up ordering the Lunderg clamp based on the user reviews. Note that my urologist actually recommended me a different brand which is more expensive but with less favorable user reviews. I also recall that my Physiotherapist did indeed recommend the Lunderg to me before. She told me that her clients have used it and had good results. I have used the Lunderg for quite a good few weeks now. Let me just say that it was a very good decision to try out the clamp. The Lunderg was very easy to use out of the box. The instructions were clear and the procedure to put on was extremely simple. For the first week or so it was amazing. I was able to just use one pad over my boxer for the whole day! It did not take me much to get used to it. I have found that overall it is quite comfortable and it stopped the leak totally and gave me the control I have missed for so long. I was able to go out without worrying about "accidents" and not having the privacy or simply a decent toilet stall to change out the diaper/pad. It was a game changer, and a life changer. After a week of use, I had a few occasions where there would be a leak even when the clamp was locked in position. I then tried a different stabilizer size and experimented different locking positions. I also noticed that the clamp did not seem to be locking in with a "click" sound. I was not sure if this would explain the occasional leaks. I have contacted Lunderg to raise the issue and sought for advice. I was very impressed and pleased by the prompt and caring feedack from Sarah Brown who is the founder/Customer Service Manager of Lunderg. Sarah offered to send me a new clamp and sent me advices and suggestions to improve the issue I experienced. I received the second clamp and plan to be trying it to see if it will make a difference. I wanted to share my first hand experience with using the Lunderg. Even with the occasional leaks I have been very happy with the change. I am feeling like I am almost a normal person again. The ease of use and the good control Lunderg clamp brings has totally changed my life. I will update my review after more experimenting and trying the second clamp. Jun 22 2023 update: have used the clamp since Dec 2022. The clamp has continued to work well to support my day to day activities. About a month ago, the locking mechanism (the little piece with the open slots for locking the clam) has broken off. I wrote to Lunderg Customer Service and they were very responsive and sent me a replacement clamp immediately (arrived within the same week). I was very pleased and impressed with the great customer service. That has been the only issue I found to date.

Un poco rígido , pero funcional

Like the name says, this product gives me confidence. Without it, I would be stuck at home. Having this Clamp has allowed me to to go out, shop, visit etc., knowing I will not have to take a diaper bag. It eases tremendously the embarrassment factor, and the fear of having an accidental discharge. Works great.
