The data were collected through a survey questionnaire, filled out by 175 randomly selected residents. Results: 93,9 % of the respondents suffering from urinary incontinence use incontinence supplies. The reseach results show that 53,9 % of them claim no change in their quality of life. For 82 % of the respondents,the supplies pose no problem to live an uninhibited social life, while 18 % find them a hinderance. 54,6 % of all respondents are reluctant to initiate conversation with non-acquaintances.
