I see alot of you dont like pads without wings. I was wondering if any of you considered pull ups or belted undergarments because they are thin and will stay in place for protection that wont move.

I can still occasionally find winged pads..however they are always the first ones to disappear off the shelves is this because Poise sends an order with so many of each kind of pad so that new supplies aren't ordered till the others are sold too. I have to catch the stores when they are newly stocked to find the winged ones.
Pads without wings are pretty much useless as they roll up into a sausage shape and don't stop leaks at all..wings help keep them flat so they can absorb better please add winds to the bigger pads too..

I too live in Houston & used the Ultra Thins w/wings for several years. Now they have informed me they discontinued ALL WINGS!!! WHY???? I have tried the regular ones & they are awful. They bunch up sideways in the crotch & crawl up my rear & I am constantly pulling it out of my crack. Now tell me POISE don't you think that sounds attractive??? Obviously a man made this decision or a young woman who has yet to experience this problem of wetting on yourself. You people need to listen to these emails. Almost every paper product I use is a Kimberly Clarke product. Let me see what you would be losing if I tossed them in the trash like you did me. Kleenex, Cottonelle, Huggies, Kotex, Poise, etc...Just realize there is an alternative & all the coupons in the world don't meet diddly to me if your product is inferior.

Poise was created for people with bladder control problems. A panty liner does with wings does NOT control leakage in the manner that a real pad with wings does. If the majority of people with bladder issues only had small leaks there would be no need FOR Poise to begin with! I have used an online provider to order moderate with wings forever and now the provider says Poise informed them "wings are not popular"...what a sham that is. Without wings they won't work, I've tried and it does NOT work. Once I found this out I took everything Kimberly Clark from my bathroom and hall closet and got it ready for the trash. If we can support them all these years we deserve their continued product support.

www.caregiverpartnership.com does carry Poise Ultra thin with wings. Hope this helps.

I live in Houston and have had the same problem finding the wing version! I have tried medical supply companies now looking. I have found only the small 16 pack version of the wings. They are still on their website so we should bug them to make more and keep them!!!!

i did not know poise had panty liners with wings if this is so where are they..from the looks of others messages they no longer exist..i think it would be great so they would stay in place..i find that they scrunch up sideways in the crotch area..perhaps i will go back to toilet paper...geesh

I really loved the wings and now I can't find them anymore. Why did you get rid of them? There is no reason for me to use your product any more because your just like the others.

Talk to your doctor about bladder control solutions.
