Encopresis, also known as functional fecal incontinence or soiling, is when children pass stool (poop) into their underwear, in most cases accidentally. It occurs in children 4 years of age and older who have been toilet trained. The condition is more common in boys than girls. It affects 1% to 4% of children who are 4 years old, and the frequency of this condition decreases with older age.
While you might see some progress early in treatment, it usually takes months for your child to overcome encopresis. There will be accidents along the way. Parents must keep their reactions to accidents low-key and continue to support the child. Most children who receive treatment for encopresis eventually are free from constipation and become accident-free as they grow older.

If you notice your child has symptoms of encopresis, visit their healthcare provider. It can be easier to treat encopresis and constipation early, at the first sign of a problem. If your child is not having any bowel movements, experiences pain or refuses to eat due to discomfort, visit your provider immediately.
Hundreds of women have taken to Twitter to share photos of their underwear in protest after an Irish lawyer earlier this month reportedly brought up the underwear a teenager was wearing while defending the man accused of raping her.
And when it's your non-binary child's time of the month, many parents turn to the standard packaged menstrual products like pads, liners, and tampons. It's just common practice as a parent of a non-binary teen that finds themselves in the grocery store or pharmacy staring at the selection of products wondering which one is best for their child.
In this blog, we are going to dive into the benefits of period underwear for your non-binary teenager and answer some of your most common questions about period underwear that we hear from our customers regularly.
Your LGBTQ menstruater can find themselves stressed about leakage and support for their period constantly that lasts all day. They're not alone in this. Period underwear from Tony & Ava is designed to be worn most of the day when they're at school without worry. This, of course, depends on how heavy their flow is.
Tampons can be complicated and even something your non-binary teenager doesn't really want to do in the school bathroom. That's where the easy-to-use period underwear comes in. you can put them on as easy as putting on a pair of underwear, and they can even carry an extra pair with them for those days when they're dealing with a heavier than normal flow.
Tampons and pads can quickly add up in price, especially as inflation and other things cause them to rise in cost. However, period underwear is an affordable option that tends to offer better and longer-lasting protection for your teenager. And the best part is that you don't have to throw them away after using them either.
We've designed Tony & Ava's period underwear to be completely discreet so that your non-binary teenager can wear them without worry and stress. They're designed to feel more like a pair of regular underwear than like the ultimate in period protection they are.
Some non-binary teens find that pads and tampons are more uncomfortable than they imagined. Or they may even feel that they're bulky to wear. Period underwear provides complete protection while also being as comfortable as a regular pair of underwear.
There's nothing worse than menstruating on a day you're going to be swimming in the ocean or a pool. With period underwear, your teenager doesn't have to worry about leakage and damage to a period product while swimming because we have period underwear that is swim-proof.
When your non-binary teenager has the support they need to be themselves and not have to worry about leakage or constantly rushing to the restroom to change a tampon or pad, it can help them build better confidence in their daily lives.
If you're looking for that extra support for your non-binary menstruater, Tony & Ava's absorbent period underwear are designed to provide leak-proof protection, so they live their lives without worrying about their flow.

HERZOGENAURACH, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As part of the launch of their new leak-proof underwear collection, global sports company PUMA and leak-proof apparel company Modibodi have commissioned a global survey that investigated the reason girls are leaving sport; shining a light on the numbers that really matter.
The statistics unearthed were shocking, with 1 in 2 teens skipping sport because of their period. The PUMA and Modibodi global survey discovered that for many girls, sport stops because of embarrassment, pain or fear of leaks during their period. The survey insights show how the culture and lack of innovation around periods is holding girls back from participating in sport. The discomfort of disposable products coupled, from a coaching perspective, with a lack of education and training, has meant that the result is female players finding the fear of leaking psychologically impacting their sporting performance.
With a wider waist band to ensure security whilst playing and aerated side panels designed for comfort and to maximise airflow, the PUMA x Modibodi active underwear range offers women and girls the ability to stay active without having to worry about leaks, while reducing their monthly waste from period products.
Survey of 1000 girls and women globally, focusing the impact periods have on their relationship to sport, it psychologically impacts on performance as well as the degrees of support received from coaches, schools' education and physical product technology.
"First periods can be a scary and challenging time for both the parents and children. Our customers have repeatedly requested a product designed for young people with periods, and we listened," Maria Molland, CEO, THINX, Inc., said in a press release. "With the launch of THINX (BTWN), parents have the opportunity to help ease their preteen or teen into their first period by providing an easy to use and environmentally friendly solution to what can be an anxiety-ridden time."
Most of us can remember where we were when we got our first periods as tweens or teens, as it's one of those moments that really sticks with you. From then on, you're a woman, getting paid a visit by Mother Nature every month \u2014 a very annoying visit filled with cramps, overfull pads, pesky tampons, and bloating \u2014 praying that you can get through the week without having any cringe-worthy moments, like staining your pants. To help make the transition into having a period easier for young girls, THINX, the company behind period-proof underwear, has launched BTWN, a like-minded line made specially for teen periods.\n\"With the launch of THINX (BTWN), parents have the opportunity to help ease their preteen or teen into their first period.\"\nIf you're unfamiliar with THINX, the environmentally-friendly underwear line made headlines when it boasted regular-looking (yet cute!) underwear that could hold up to two tampons' worth of blood \u2014 meaning no pads or pantyliners, no tampons, and, hopefully, no wads of toilet paper as a placeholder if your period catches you by surprise. THINX (BTWN), which is aimed at girls ages 9 to 16, is designed in the exact same way, but features smaller sizes and higher absorbency to eliminate the worry that comes with having your period as a teen (and the worry you may be feeling as a parent).\n\n Related:\n\n \n \n \n \n\n 5 Reasons to Try Thinx If You Hate Pads\n \n \n\"First periods can be a scary and challenging time for both the parents and children.
