When living with an ostomy, finding the right shapewear or concealment garments can make a big difference in comfort and confidence. The goal is to find products that help flatten or disguise an ostomy pouch, especially when it starts to balloon out as it fills. Here are some practical tips and product suggestions to consider:

1. Traditional girdles can be very effective in holding an ileostomy or urostomy pouch snugly against your body. If your pouch hangs lower, look for longer-line girdles to ensure it stays in place.

2. Consider switching to clothing styles that naturally drape over your body, such as skirts, dresses, or higher-waisted pants. These styles can help reduce the visibility of a filling pouch.

3. The Phoenix Ostomy Support System offers a specialized concealment belt that might be worth exploring:
- It is designed to work with 2-piece appliances only.
- The bag is rotated to a horizontal position and placed in a zip-front pouch, making it easy to empty.
- A snap closure provides quick access while maintaining a flat profile.

These suggestions aim to help you feel more comfortable and confident in your everyday clothing while managing an ostomy.
