I bought the first box of male guards for leaks and dribbles for DH. I am wondering (haven't opened the box yet), are these basically the same thing as pad for ladies but made in masculine color?

Maybe I'll use up the old ones I have first, any reason why not? I had to buy a box of 52, so maybe I could take the m back?

    Guard brands are different but the shapes are more suited for males. Usually more curved. They do make Depends for men that look like men’s underwear. He may like them better.

    I've been experimenting with products for DH. I bought the guards and they seem to absorb very large amounts without leakage. I was concerned about moisture remaining next to the skin but so far that has been manageable.
