Ileostomy Belt Recommendations

This topic is about finding a belt that can help reduce the reliance on adhesive for an ileostomy flange. The idea is to have a belt that fits between the flange (or barrier) and the pouch, providing support and keeping everything in place more securely. Here are some helpful tips and insights:

1. A belt that fits between the flange and the pouch is essentially an ostomy hernia or support belt. These are elastic, about 3 to 4 inches wide, and have a round opening for the barrier lip to pass through. You can search for "ostomy hernia belt" to find various options. One recommended brand is Nu-Hope Ostomy Support Belts.

2. Some popular commercial support belts and wraps include:
- Stealth Belt, which is praised for its comfort and security, although there was a mention of some customer service issues.
- Belts from OstomyBagHolder.com, available in single or double ostomy models. Some users prefer these over other brands.
- Ostomy Secrets wraps, which are another option for everyday wear.

3. Many people choose to wear a support belt only during exercise, but others find it helpful to wear one all the time for extra confidence.

4. If you're unsure which belt will work best with your current system, it's a good idea to contact the manufacturer of your pouching supplies. They can offer recommendations and suggest compatible accessories.
