Abstract
A system for managing female incontinence includes a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body having a surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus, an adhesive carried on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, and a substance carried by at least one of the body and the adhesive and configured for controlling the odor of the general vaginal-urethral area of a female.

A system for managing female incontinence comprising:
- a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body comprising a substantially planar ventral surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus;
- an adhesive carried on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus;
- and
- a substance carried by at least one of the body and the adhesive and configured for controlling the odor of the general vaginal-urethral area of a female.
A system for managing female incontinence comprising:
- a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body comprising a substantially planar ventral surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus;
- and
- an adhesive carried on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, wherein the adhesive comprises PHEMA formed from a HEMA monomer having a purity of about 96% to about 98%.
