The older we get the likelihood of experiencing incontinence increases. Unfortunately, women can be affected twice as much than men. According to webmd.com, as many as 6 out of 10 middle-aged or older women report having any incontinence while as many as two of those women experience incontinence on a daily basis. Compare this to approximately 4 out of 10 older men report any incontinence with only one reporting daily incontinence. Adult briefs can help us deal with this growing problem as we age.
