A protective barrier system includes a protective barrier assembly having a groin covering panel including an aperture, a securing strap, and fastening members. The groin covering panel is formed of flexible material with leg openings, and is of a size and shape configured to cover a pelvic region of a user-wearer. The securing strap when fastened to the groin covering panel creates the leg openings which are configured to receive legs of the user-wearer and secure the groin covering panel to the user-wearer. The protective barrier system provides an absorbent article and protective barrier for absorbing excess fluids during the sexual activities.

Improved skin-adhesive compositions for bonding a substrate, such as an absorbent article, to skin are disclosed. More particularly, the skin-adhesive composition has an improved, yet gentle, adhesion to the skin of a user, while maintaining strong, effective bonding to various inanimate, non-skin substrates. In one embodiment, the skin-adhesive composition can provide one or more skin benefit agents to the user. The skin-adhesive composition may be applied to an absorbent article, such as a panty-liner, sanitary napkin, or an incontinence article, for directly adhering the article to the skin of a user.

A system for managing female incontinence includes a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body having a surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus, a first adhesive layer disposed on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, and a second adhesive layer disposed over the first adhesive layer and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, wherein the second adhesive layer is removable from the first adhesive layer.

An absorbent article has attachment regions having body adhesive. The attachment regions have a protected condition where the body adhesive is fully covered. The attachment regions are adapted to transition from the protected condition to a fixed donning condition where a portion of the body adhesive is exposed and a portion of the body adhesive is covered. The attachment regions are adapted to transition from the fixed donning condition to a fully exposed condition where the body adhesive is fully exposed.

A urinary incontinence device for animals comprising a main panel with a first wing, center section, second wing, and crotch section that are laterally allied to form a single rectangular shape. The wings, center section and crotch section are comprised of three layers of fabric cut from the same pattern, including an outer waterproof cover, an intermediate absorbent layer, and an inner wicking layer. The invention further comprises a removable absorption pod comprised of a waterproof outer holder and one or more absorbent cloths contained within the waterproof outer holder. A pair of suspender strips extends perpendicularly from a front edge of the first and second wings and are configured to attach to a harness. Each suspender strap terminates in a removable harness adapter, which is attached to the suspender strap via a quick-release connector.
