If you like your pads, please leave a review where you bought them from. It REALLY helps! 🩷

If you don't like them, let me know why not and we can sort it, or I can help with other places that might have what you need.

🌸 Spring finally sprang! Now is a good time to get your intergluteal pads stocked up before it gets hot! ☀️

If you've never tried them before, intergluteal pads are a cheap, effective way to keep the skin between your gluteal muscles/cheeks dry. No more itching and sore skin. 😀 Simple but very effective! Link in comments 👇

*St Mark's Hospital, Research Opportunity*

We are currently inviting participants for the final phase of the St Mark's Sex-PROM study, which aims to develop a questionnaire to better understand sexual function, intimacy and relationships after non-cancer colorectal surgery, including fistula surgery, stoma formation and proctectomy.

Your help will contribute to refining the questionnaire so that it can be used in future research and clinical care.

Taking part involves completing a short questionnaire pack (around 10-15 minutes) via email, and then completing the same three questionnaires again about one month later.

If you would be willing to consider taking part, please email lnwh-tr.sexprom@nhs.net for more information.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Question - would you sacrifice fast drying time for higher capacity? And to what extent? For example, given a choice of product A or B, which would you choose and why? Feel free to elaborate in the comments. For the purposes of this question, assume that both products absorb fluid at the same rate and are both as thin as our Original pads. Coverage is the same for both and let's assume they cover as well as a good absorbent underwear. The only variables are drying time and therefore capacity. Assume everything else is great and it is antimicrobial so microbial growth is not a problem it's literally just the time it takes to dry traded off against the capacity.

A - holds say 400ml and air dries indoors in winter in approx 30 hours (1 and a bit days)
B - holds 800ml and air dries indoors in winter in approx 70 hours (so more like 3 days)

Crohn's or colitis? Take part in research.....

Researchers at Murmur Research & Consultancy Ltd are looking to understand more about the lived experiences of adults with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

To be eligible to take part, you must:
▪️be aged 18 or over
▪️have a diagnosis of Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis
▪️fit at least one lived‑experience group:
- diagnosed within the last 9 months
- diagnosed 2 or more years ago
- recently had stoma surgery
- expecting stoma surgery within the next 12 months

This study aims to build a clearer picture of what people with Crohn’s or Colitis experience at different stages of their condition.

By taking part, you will help researchers to understand what daily life, care and decision‑making are really like for people living with IBD. Findings from this study will support future improvements to services, support, and the overall IBD care pathway.

Please note: This research study is NOT organised by Crohn’s & Colitis UK and, therefore, we cannot take responsibility for your involvement in the research.
