The C3Male Continence Device was developed for use by men, and is very often prescribed by physicians following prostate surgery. It is made of soft foam wrapped in supple plastic. A urethral occlusion pad presses on the urethra, providing localized pressure to prevent the involuntary loss of urine, and the flow of blood is unimpeded to assure safety.
