If you have a medical condition that requires you to use a catheter to assist in draining your bladder, then you might be nervous about which type to choose. Unless you have been ordered by a doctor to only use a traditional one, it makes much more sense to allow yourself to enjoy all of the benefits that intermittent urinary catheters can offer you.
Pain-Free
While you might think that inserting something into your urethra might hurt, this is actually not the case at all. A high-quality catheter will be painless to place in the appropriate position and most people find it very easy to master.
Empties Completely
The catheter allows the bladder to empty completely. This is great news for those who have previously experienced leakage due to weak musculature in the pelvic area. A properly fitted catheter means no more accidents at inopportune times.
Reduces Infections
Since there is no residual urine when using an intermittent catheter, there is a significantly reduced chance of getting an infection than there is with a traditional catheter or with simply trying to empty the bladder any other way.
Higher Quality Of Sleep
When you are not being woken with a bladder that needs to be emptied, you are far more likely to get a deeper and more beneficial level of sleep than you would any other way. Intermittent urinary catheters also remove the risk of bedwetting, which can obviously be embarrassing for all involved.
