If you wear a belt with your urostomy or colostomy, tuck the bag underneath the belt to your left or right, depending on what side your bag is on. Make sure you use the bathroom before any action takes place.

I'm the same. I've had an ileostomy for 43 years (I'm 54) and have never used anything extra. It's never been an issue for me or my past partners. My husband says it's a non-issue and I have no reason to believe otherwise.

Happy holidays!

An ostomy wrap (the spandex ones, not the Stealth Belt) is a game changer.

These are Coloplast Sensura Mio products. They have two different Velcro attachment locations: extended or folded up. The smallest is a "mini" and is what I prefer.

Hey Todd, tell me about the last one on the right that's for the Mio flip because I was told they don't make those for the flip.

You got a part number there? Thanks.

Sure thing! Here is a screenshot from my Edgepark account.

Thank you, Todd. I need to check something out because what I have here is an ostomy pouch, and the part number on that was 2802. I'm looking at the thing right now, and it looks like a really tiny, tiny small pancake, but yours really is a pouch, I believe. It's not a stoma cap, correct?

Because that's what I thought it was looking at it. I wanted a stoma cap.

Correct, these are pouches. Here is the other side.

Ok. Thanks, Todd.

The funny thing about those stoma caps is that try as I might to imagine emptying one if that thing gets full during the intimate moment, you can't.

You obviously have to excuse yourself for a few more than minutes because you got to clean that up and with no drain, so the whole thing comes off and you got to pop on another one.

Talk about a killjoy moment 😔

I have never had that problem personally, but I can definitely see and appreciate what you are saying. The one on the left that folds up does have expansion volume (by unfolding it) and a drain, if needed.

I found a black neoprene with Velcro belt about 3” wide helps me, or I'll just wear sports underwear and pull out through the leg and carry on. 🦌 Tried the small size cap/bag but they fill up so fast I didn't like it. Get lucky.

I haven't read all your replies, but this is the bang bag right here. Just so you know, if you don't use Hollister, try a sample of it. I used one for an 803 flange that goes up to two inches that I cut out. I can wear it all day easily with no issues. Some days I need one with a shoulder strap, some days not. If I'm on the wrong kind of bag or wrong subject, my apologies. The bag I normally wear is a 18183, so it's one number up, 18283, for the little one. If you wear a different size, I don't know what they do. Good luck, have fun.
