Boring but also weird question thread - Tena pants

9 replies

Suffering badly with sensitive skin at the moment and wearing normal pants HURTS!

So I had the idea, having used them in the past when having a procedure done of getting some tena pants as I remember they have soft "edgings"

But it was a LONG time ago and I can't remember how the sizings worked. Googling it gives hip sizes but I don't know the size of my hips I just know I'm a size 16-18 in primary and next sizings normally

I've ordered medium that sound ok?

Google size guide for primark or next and it'll give you measurements

Why don't you get something like Sloggi Zero Feel instead of disposable pants? Assuming you don't need the incontinence aspect.

Can you just not wear pants for a while? Appreciate it might not be everyone's cup of tea though

I get abscesses around my groin. Havent worn pants all lockdown, it's been great Grin

If you have sensitive skin then won't the chemicals in the Tena pants irritate you further?

For lightweight wear I recommend Uniqlo Airism briefs, I have a few pairs for wearing under things that would show a knicker line and they genuinely feel very light. In fact I find them a bit unsettling because I'm used to being able to feel my underwear.

Sloggi I can't wear not sure what's in them but something that irritates and that's when my skin is relatively good!

I've been doing without wearing underwear as much as possible but I'm not sure it's helping. And I'm not completely comfortable doing so generally.

Uniqlo Airism are they similar to sloggi?

I find it harder and harder to find comfy underwear generally
