Finding your Tena level
Tena covers every level of leak, but it names products by type and level rather than drops out of 10. Start with how much you lose, then pick the shape.
For women
Drips when you laugh or lift: Tena Liners Extra Long. A little more: Tena Pads Extra or the InstaDRY range. Nights: Tena Pads Maxi Night, longer and wider at the back. If you'd rather a pant that looks like knickers, Tena Pants Women Discreet comes in white, black and cream.
Tena Men levels 1 to 4
Tena Men is numbered by level. Levels 1 to 3 are guards worn inside your own underwear. Level 4 is a pull-up pant.
Level 1 is for the few drops after you've been to the toilet. Level 2 is for small leaks during the day. Level 3 is the most a guard holds. Beyond that, the Premium Fit Maxi Level 4 or Active Fit Plus pants replace your underwear. After prostate surgery, many men start on Level 3 and step down as things improve. Our guide on incontinence after prostate surgery explains why.
Heavy leaks: Tena Pants and ProSkin
For heavy leaks, the unisex Tena Pants Plus and Plus Night pull up like underwear. ProSkin Pants (Super, Maxi and Bariatric Plus) add a breathable outer for skin. For someone changed lying down, the ProSkin Slip Super fastens at the hips.

Common questions
Tena Pants or Tena ProSkin Pants?
Both pull up like underwear. ProSkin has a breathable outer and is the one to choose if skin is already sore.
Which Tena Men level do I need?
Start with the lowest level that keeps you dry between changes. If the guard is full in under three hours, go up one level.
How does Tena compare with MoliCare?
They use different scales. Our pharmacist comparison lines them up.
Not sure which level?
Tell Nadim how much and when. He'll name the Tena product and the size.
