Incontinence can feel overwhelming, especially when leaks interrupt your daily routines or affect your confidence. Insert pads and booster pads offer practical, easy-to-use solutions that provide extra absorbency, comfort, and peace of mind. Whether you’re managing light leaks or need added protection with your existing incontinence products, these pads can make a big difference in how you feel throughout the day.
This guide helps you understand what insert pads and booster pads are, how they work, and how to choose the right option for your lifestyle.
.
What Are Insert Pads?
Insert pads, sometimes called “liners” or “incontinence pads,” are absorbent pads worn inside regular underwear or inside protective underwear. They’re designed for light to moderate bladder leakage and give a slim, discreet layer of protection.
They’re ideal for people who:
- Experience occasional dribbling
- Have stress incontinence (leaking when coughing, sneezing, laughing)
- Want something thinner than full protective underwear
- Need a backup option for long days or travel
Insert pads are soft, flexible, and designed to stay in place with adhesive strips.
.
What Are Booster Pads?
Booster pads are different from regular insert pads. Instead of absorbing leaks directly in your underwear, they are placed inside a disposable brief or pull-up to add extra absorbency.
What makes booster pads unique is that they are flow-through, meaning liquid passes through them once full and goes into the brief below, increasing total capacity without causing overflow.
They are perfect for:
- Heavy incontinence
- Overnight protection
- Preventing leaks during long shifts or travel
- People who want to extend the wear time of their existing pull-ups or briefs
Booster pads are a smart choice for anyone who needs extra security and wants to avoid frequent changes.

Benefits of Using Insert & Booster Pads
1. Extra Comfort and Confidence
These pads provide an added layer of protection that helps prevent leaks and gives you peace of mind throughout the day.
2. Better Absorbency Control
Insert pads handle light to moderate leaks. Booster pads help increase the absorbency of your brief, especially at night or during long periods without access to a bathroom.
3. Flexible and Discreet
Both options are slim, quiet under clothing, and designed for comfort — so you can move freely and go about your day without worry.
4. Great for Overnight Use
Booster pads are especially helpful for nighttime protection. They add volume without bulk and reduce the need for frequent changes.
5. Cost-Effective
Instead of changing the whole brief multiple times a day, booster pads let you change the pad while keeping the brief underneath. This helps reduce waste and save money.

How to Choose the Right Pad
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Choose inserts for light to moderate leaks or when you prefer something slim and discreet.
- Choose boosters for heavy leaks, nighttime, travel, or when you need extra absorbency with your brief.
- Look for soft materials that won’t irritate the skin.
- Choose a size that matches your body shape so the pad stays in place.
- Consider odor control if that’s a concern.
- Try different absorbency levels until you find what feels best.

Care Tips for Insert & Booster Pads
- Change pads when they start to feel wet or uncomfortable.
- Keep the skin clean and dry between changes.
- Use barrier cream if you have sensitive skin.
- For booster pads, make sure they are placed flat inside your brief to avoid bunching.
- Store pads in a dry place to protect them from moisture.
Good care helps you stay comfortable and prevents irritation.
