If you are a woman who has certain health problems, you might find that it is difficult to fully empty your bladder on your own. While this may not be a permanent problem, it certainly has repercussions if not directly dealt with. This is where female intermittent catheters can come into play.
While many people might be intimated by putting in a catheter on their own, it is actually pretty easy to do on your own. Once you get the hang of it, the process can be done in a minute or less.
Many people have found that these types of catheters are more effective than ones left in all of the time. They can still effectively drain your bladder, but you are also free to lead a normal active lifestyle because the catheter is removed once your bladder is emptied.
When dealing with full-time catheters, there is always the risk of getting an infection, spasms in your bladder, or even leakage from a faulty device. None of these problems are concerns when you are using female intermittent catheters.
Cathertes are legitimate medical devices that are available by prescription, which means that they are also covered by most insurance plans. You won’t have to pay anything out of pocket so there is no reason to not get them.
