Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control and causes involuntary leakage of urine. According to statics, a quarter to a third of people in the United States suffer from urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence is often caused by aging, pregnancy, or underlying medical conditions like diabetes, menopause, or prostate issues.
Underpads are one of the many products available to manage incontinence and improve quality of life. They are designed to be placed above bed linens to prevent fluids from leaking through, keeping the mattress and bedding dry.
Bed pads are large rectangular sheets with an absorbent core and waterproof backing. When moisture hits the top sheet, it is absorbed and locked in the absorbent core. The waterproof backing prevents wetness from seeping through.
Underpads are also used for protecting furniture from incontinence, such as chairs, couches, wheelchairs, car seats, etc. They are also useful for:
Bed pads can be disposable or reusable. Washable bed pads are economical and can be a lifesaver for those with incontinence and their caregivers. Reusable underpads stay in place well, no matter how much tossing and turning are involved during sleep. They are made of durable, high-quality fabric to withstand many washings.
HPFY carries a large collection of washable underpads that protect the mattress from urine. Some of our best washable bed pads for incontinence are:

10/30/22 by Barbara C. “I ordered three of these lads in two different colors. They are made very well and of good quality fabrics. The colors matched my furniture to my satisfaction, and after sitting on them for a period of time, they wrinkle, but the wrinkles brush out immediately by just gently brushing you hand over it. Absolutely water resistant, so my nice furniture I'd protected from an occasional accixent. ”
