High-Waisted Ileostomy Underwear for Men

This topic is about finding comfortable and supportive high-waisted underwear options for men who have an ileostomy, especially when the stoma is located just above the navel. Here are some helpful suggestions and insights:

1. Instead of opting for very high-waisted underwear, some people use an elastic maternity-style wrap, often referred to as a "boob tube," to keep the pouch secure and prevent it from flapping around.

2. There are specially designed ostomy wraps like the Ostomysecrets Wrap and the Stealth Belt that provide discreet support. Some men also find it comfortable to let the pouch hang freely when possible.

3. High-waisted boxer-style support underwear is available from several brands, including:
- Salts Healthcare, which offers Salts high-waisted boxer shorts support wear
- Comfizz
- CUI Wear

4. Wearing stretchy, fitted singlets or tank tops over the appliance can help mask any bulges, no matter what type of underwear you choose.

5. For more ideas and to see product images, you can search online for "underwear for ostomates" or check out the men's clothing and undergarment section of the VeganOstomy Dressing Guide at https://www.veganostomy.ca/dressing-with-an-ostomy-clothing-guide-for-men/.
