Dear Dalton, you can certainly use absorbent pants to help mange your bedwetting. Given your age you may the DryNites to be too small and therefore prone to leakage; instead try a product designed for adults. Findings from the research suggest, the older you get the less likely you will outgrow bedwetting on your own, therefore I would recommending introducing a bedwetting alarm to help you to stop. If you have not done so already you could try speaking to a continence nurse who will be able to guide you through this purpose. Ask your doctor for a referral or contact the Continence Foundation of Australia (1800 330 066) who should be able to recommend someone in your area. All the best! Regards, Dr Cathrine
