What about the pouch?

Manshape Support Underwear For Men Frequently Asked Question...
The pouch is cut to match the contours of your body & should not be constricting in any way more than a soft fabric athletic supporter.

What about showering and bathing? Should I bathe with or without my pouch?

You may bathe with or without your pouching system in place. If you wish to take a shower or bath with your pouch off, you can do so. Normal exposure to air or contact with soap and water will not harm the stoma, and water does not enter the opening. Choose a time for bathing when the bowel is less active. You can also leave your pouch on while bathing.

UOAA Ostomy FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions Following Ostom...
The type of pouching system that was used in the hospital may need to be changed as the healing process takes place. Your stoma may shrink and may require a change in the size opening of your pouch. Your lifestyle may necessitate a change of the pouching system after a recuperative period. Make an appointment with your ostomy nurse to evaluate your management system. Check the pouch occasionally to see if it needs emptying before it gets too full and causes a leakage problem.

How often should I empty my pouch?

LDOA Article - FAQ for Young Persons (Lifestyle)
Courtney ? You should empty it every time you go pee. Even if there's just a little bit in your pouch, that's a little bit less that adds up when your pouch starts to fill up again. If you don't want to empty it every time you pee, I would suggest more frequent bathroom breaks so that it doesn't show underneath your clothes. An excellent rule of thumb is to empty your pouch when it is 1/3 full.

Why choose a pouch?

Frequently Asked Questions - Baby Slings, Pouches, and Carri...
Pouches are often called the "training wheels" of baby carriers. It is difficult to go wrong with a well-fitted pouch. Put it on, slip the baby in and go. There are few adjustments to make and therefore less to learn. Pouches have a streamlined look that many parents prefer. Pouches are lightweight and compact and easily slip into a diaper bag when baby is not being worn. Dads often prefer the look of a pouch to a ring sling.
