Hi I’m nearly 60 and I’ve lived with incontinence for 20 odd years.
I wear disposable all in ones and plastic pants ( a nappy )
My question is am I wrong to call it a nappy what do you call them.

All of my friends and close family who know about my prostate-related incontinence are quite mindful of the term “nappy”. The fact that you wear an adult-sized one is neither here nor there. There is far less stigma associated with having to wear a nappy these days (I speak from 40 years experience. You wear a nappy for good reasons so don`t feel ashamed about it or have any issue with using the correct term for the protection that we incontinent folks have to wear. Good luck!
