C3 Male Continence Device is an inexpensive and dignified solution for managing mild-to-moderate male incontinence. The C3 is contoured and cradle-like; it clamps evenly around the penis and its soft foam puts pressure only where it’s needed, on the urethra. This prevents the involuntary loss of urine, but does not cut off blood flow. The design of the C3 accounts for most commonly encountered clinical issues. It is constructed from materials carefully chosen to enhance patient comfort. The C3 is also compact and easy to conceal. Its elastic strap holds the C3 in place without shifting, giving patients the confidence to go about their daily routine. The disposable C3 is also reasonably priced, so patients are more likely to replace it at regular intervals, ensuring proper hygiene. The penis is placed through the opening in the C3. The lower arm is positioned so that the urethral occlusion pad is against the urethra, and the device is secured (see below) by wrapping the elastic strap comfortably snug around the penis.

Choose the Size that’s Right for You
The C3 device comes in three sizes. Follow these instructions to determine the size that’s right for you:
- Use a flexible tape measure.
- Measure only a non-erect penis. For best results, conduct sizing when your body is at room temperature. For example, don’t conduct the sizing immediately after a shower
- Wrap the tape measure around your penis, one to two inches from the body. (Do not measure the length.)
- When the tape measure is snug around your penis, read the number in inches. Do not pull tightly.
Use the number of inches around to determine your size before ordering:
- Small = less than 2-1⁄2 inches (6 cm) around
- Regular = 2-1⁄2-4 inches (6-10 cm) around
- Large = 4-5-1⁄2 inches (10-14 cm) around
