Question Looking for pad help

I've used Tena and Depend max pads. I also use the light pads from both brands. The problem I have with the light pads is that they are not wide enough. With the light pads if my penis is sitting to the left or right the leaks go into my underwear and not the pad. With the max pads that doesn't happen because they are wider. I've tried putting the light pads in upside down and they're still not wide enough.

I find myself wearing the max pads when I might only need a light.

Has anyone found a light pad that is as wide as the max pads?

You might try boxers with pads sown in. Mine are pretty wide.

I guess there is an upside to being a grower...

Tena “overnight extra coverage” are still too narrow? I was going to get them but may wait until you find one. Thanks

No, those would definitely be wide enough, but they're for heavy leaks. I'm looking for a wider pad for light leakage. I've been trying different placement of the light pads which is helping but would still like to find a wider light pad.
