The invention relates to a male incontinence guard intended for one-time use only and including an inner, liquid permeable casing layer (2), which is intended to lie closest to the body of the wearer in use, an outer liquid impermeable casing layer (3) and an absorbent pad (4) enclosed between the layers. According to the invention, a first part of the absorbent pad (4) intended to surround the user's scrotum, at least completely or partially, when the guard is in use, narrows towards the scrotum end (10) of the absorbent pad, i.e. towards the free end of the aforesaid first part of the pad; in that at least one elastic device (9) is attached in a prestretched state to the inner casing layer (2) and extends from the scrotum end (10) along each of the side edges (5a, 5b) of the pad over at least a part of the lengths of the side edges; and in that contraction of the elastic device or elastic devices form the prestretched state causes the first part of the absorbent body to take a curved shape so that, when the guard is used, the aforementioned part will be curved inwardly beneath the scrotum of the wearer. |
