Stop Bladder Leaks Before They Happen with Poise Impressa

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Poise for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Did you know that 35,000,000 women experience stress urinary incontinence which is a common type of bladder leakage that is triggered by sneezing, laughing, coughing, lifting, physical exercise or a combination of all of those things? That’s right, 35 million women!

I’m not afraid to admit that I have this problem and mine was caused by having a total hysterectomy at the age of 21…I’m now 48 years old. A few years after my hysterectomy is when my problem started and it’s slowly gotten worse over the years. Not only is this problem embarrassing but it has limited some of the things that I like to do.

Well today, I’m here to tell you that there is help for all of us who suffer with stress urinary incontinence!

Poise Impressa has introduced the first over-the-counter internal bladder supports that are designed to stop bladder leaks before they happen. They are discreet and are inserted into your vagina…only YOU know they are there. They can prevent bladder leaks for up to 8 hours so that you can get back to living an active life once again. They are safe, comfortable and very easy to use. If you’ve used a tampon in the past…you can use these!

Unlike a tampon though…these bladder supports don’t absorb urine…instead, they gently lift & support the urethra to help stop the leaks when you sneeze, cough or do any physical activity.

The Poise Impressa Bladder Supports come in 3 different sizes that adapt to the unique internal shape of each woman’s body. To start out with…you’ll want to get the Poise Impressa Sizing Kit which includes the 3 different sizes along with step-by-step directions on how to use the product. You’ll start out with size #1 and if that size works for you…that’s the size you’ll want to stick with. If not, try out size #2 and if that works…great! If not, try out size #3. For me personally, size #1 was perfect for me.

In a nutshell:

Size 1 is for those women who need low bladder support.
Size 2 is for those women who need medium bladder support.
Size 3 is for those women who need high bladder support.

Let’s talk briefly about ease of use. Back when I had my menses I did use and wear tampons. Inserting something into my vagina is nothing new to me (although it’s been many years since I’ve had to do it). Anyway, the Poise Impressa Bladder Supports are very easy to use and the applicator has a rounded tip for comfortable insertion. Each one is soft & flexible, disposable and hygienic. You’ll want to insert it into the vagina until it feels comfortable to help support the urethra. Once your done “using it”, simply tug on the string to remove it.

Poise Impressa Bladder Supports are working for me! My mother is 68 years old and is having the same problems as me. She is now using them too but uses size #2 for her needs. I’m really surprised at how easy they are to use and that they really do work! I can now go to yoga class, ride my bike and do other activities without having to worry about bladder leaks!

I would like for you to watch this Youtube video so that you can learn more about the product, how it works and how it can help you if you suffer from stress urinary incontinence.

So, now that you watched the video, what do you think? Do you or someone you know suffer with SUI? If so, this is definitely one product you need to check out or have them check out. For me personally, it’s working and I’m super happy that can once again participate in activities that I love to do and not worry about bladder leakage!
