Always Incontinence Underwear Postpartum Protection Reviews Summary

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

• "They fit like underwear whereas other brands are incredibly bulky."
• "I got an size L as a 210 poynd curvy women and they fit perfectly."
• "These beat the mesh panties with the diaper pads and they’re far more comfortable."
• "Finally, a perfect fit without feeling like I have a dirty diaper on even when it’s clean."
• "They are a lot softer, flexible, padding stays in place and easier to put on."
• "NO LEAKAGE super comfy I can barely tell I’m wearing a diaper essentially."
• "These have given me enormous amounts of confidence to take long drives again."

Cons:

• "Besides that they leak from the legs. And the elastic cuts into legs."
• "I went by the size chart and picked my correct size but when they arrived they were too big on me."
• "I ordered the S/M for postpartum recovery because I normally wear a small and honestly I should have ordered the large because they are extremely tight and uncomfortable during the healing process."
• "The size/shape is wonky."
• "I don’t like the fit because they don’t cover the butt cheeks."
• "For some reason they are not a good fit. They do not cover your behind completely which makes them uncomfortable."
• "Once you put a pair on, there’s an uncomfortable fit. They elastic is very loose around the thighs which makes it give you a wedgy or sticks out on the sides."

Leakage and Absorbency

Pros:

• "I have not had any issues with leaking-- at all. None."
• "I wore these for about 2-3 weeks postpartum and they never let me down!"
• "You also don’t have to change it every hour like if you were to wear pads."
• "Any leakage from the catheter is absorbed by the underwear."
• "I have a heavy flow and usually bleed over the back of overnight pads, but these are high-waisted and work well for sleeping."
• "I have had no issues with leaking (9 days post partum today) and they have held up since we left the hospital."
• "Wearing these gives you a peace of mind that you won’t leak through."

Cons:

• "Purchased these instead of the Depends to give them a try for my cycle after postpartum. They I’ve zero absorption, they leaked through on to my jeans, leaked outside of the pad."
• "They were okay for light leakage but at times I have problems and have lots of leakage."
• "The padding gets bunched together & then there is leakage on the sides."
• "The absorbent pad that is in these is much too small for postpartum bleeding let alone anyone's urinary incontinence."
• "Yup, you got it - massive leakage out of the sides."
• "It is not completely leakproof because it has fitting/design issues."
• "The package said for maximum. It is equal to other products I have used to their light. Tried the first one today what a disaster! I soaked my shorts, the urine ran down my legs into my shoes."

Scent

Pros:

• "Also a plus they smell so good!"
• "I love the comfort, design and light fragrance."
• "She likes the color and said they smell nice (like faint coconut)."
• "The perfume smell means my trash doesn’t smell like pee."

Cons:

• "When I opened the package, a horrid 'scent' was emitted."
• "THEY SMELL SO BAD I COULD CRY. Ewwww."
• "Too bad the company doesn’t pay attention to the many people who comment about the “fragrance”. It’s pretty strong and does not fade with time as you wear them."
• "The “light” scent is Very strong, unpleasant, and lingers forever."
• "It was never indicated in the web description that these are lightly scented."
• "Despite some claiming they are not scented or lightly scented, for someone that has scent sensitivity, the scent is too strong."
• "I did not see anywhere in the description these were scented and I do mean highly scented."

Quality and Design

Pros:

• "For over 2 years I have been buying with satisfaction only Always 100 % absorbancy underwear because of the Gel Technology."
• "These Always discreet undergarments are very comfortable, not overly bulky, SUPER ABSORBENT and come in a nice light blush color."
• "They are comfy, absorbent, disposable, & my husband even said I was cute in them!"
• "Not only do they fit so much better, like a pair of underwear would, I only need one a day."
• "They are SUPER absorbent and I had not a single leak the ENTIRE TIME!"
• "They are also very absorbent which is why they are great to use postpartum."
• "They are as comfortable as you can expect from a product like this."

Cons:

• "The material is cheap because if you try to pull the wedgy out the diaper rips."
• "Are these factory 'imperfects?'"
• "The little bow goes in front, and fit is okay, however, little gelatinous beads come pouring out and fall all over the floor if the underwear gets torn when taking them off of a patient."
• "However the padded lining falls apart like the old disposal baby diapers of the 70’s."
• "The sides are much thinner and there is no purple bow indicating the front of the diaper."
• "Because of weight loss surgery my stomach hangs down... the leg openings are so large my stomach hangs out the bottom causing the leg opening to ride up to my waist!"
• "The last two shipments have been so awful the quality has been downgraded."
