Problem
Men with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) currently rely on diapers, clamps, and external catheters, which are uncomfortable, embarrassing, and cumbersome. These options interfere with daily life and offer no discreet, effective, or affordable solution for managing leaks.
Solution
Urologic Design is developing a new kind of urethral occlusion device designed specifically for men with SUI. The device is tiny—smaller than a Tic Tac®—and is inserted painlessly about 1 cm into the tip of the urethra with a drop of topical lubricant. Once inside, the outer capsule dissolves within minutes, allowing the soft interior to gently expand and prevent leaks until the user is ready to void. When the urge to urinate arises, the user gently squeezes to compress the device and removes it using a durable string, then disposes of it and urinates normally. This non-surgical, single-use approach aims to provide a comfortable, sterile, and affordable alternative to bulky diapers and pads, while also reducing single-use waste.
Target Audience
Primary customers are men living with stress urinary incontinence, as well as the clinicians and researchers who treat them. The company also welcomes conversations with partners interested in advancing male continence care.
