Topic Explanation:
The forum topic is about a person who has been experiencing issues with their ileostomy flanges, which are leaking and falling off daily. They have been using ConvaTec products and have had their ostomy for over 40 years. They are seeking advice on what they can do to address this issue.

Advice and Insights:
1. Try a liquid or very soft diet for a few days to see if it helps with the flanges' adherence, as too much bulk or fiber can push underneath the flange, especially at night.
2. Wear a belt if not already doing so, as it may help with the flange's stability.
3. Consider trying samples of products from other manufacturers, as a different product may adhere better due to personal body type and chemistry.
4. Contact the supplier and report the issue, as it may be a defective batch. Request free samples from the suppliers and consider trying another type of pouching system.
5. Gently warm up the flanges with a hairdryer until it gets warm to the touch (not hot) to soften it up for better adherence to the skin.
6. If experiencing persistent issues, consider making custom flanges and using medical adhesive spray for better adherence.
7. Ensure dryness when changing the flange, and consider that the problem may be due to a defective batch of products.
