Placing Spouti™ means locating your urethra!
Finding your urethra can take a couple of tries so let’s break it down to make it easier!

 

Most of us aren’t quite familiar with where things are located down there – so take a moment to check it out. A quick look with a mirror can help you find your urethra. It might sound gross – but take it into the shower and watch where the urine comes from. If you put a little pressure on the area you will notice it feels a bit like a donut. You might also feel a little bit like you need to pee.

The urethra is typically found roughly 1cm above the vaginal opening – this is the ideal placement for the best Spouti™ fit. Some people find their urethra to be a bit higher, up near the clitoris – this may require you to wear your Spouti™ backwards – feel free to ask us about it!!
The cup should be place over your urethra with the tab portion pointing upwards, towards your pubic bone, as seen in the pictures below.

(Pro Tip – put your finger on your urethra, then place the cup over your finger – give the back of the cup a nudge juuust a bit farther back than you think to get the centering needed for that perfect seal!)

Spouti™ is crafted through Silicone Injection Molding, creating an interface that can be re-used over and over, while being soft enough that you can wear it on a bicycle!
The Cup portion of Spouti™ creates a seal around your urethra, so placement is key! Best trick in the book? Push the cup back a bit further than you think – works like a charm every time!
Spouti™ comes pre-assembled with 10″ tubing, but we also have a 20″ tubing replacement option – Great for cath bags and for relieving yourself from a wheelchair or other mobility aid. Don’t struggle to stand, then sit, then stand, and then sit again. Snag the add-on pack! (and check out our friends at CathWear.com)
While the Stand to Pee function is heavily marketed, Spouti™ can be used while in a seated position, and with an ID of 1/4inch it can be pressed onto most 1/2inch catheter bag connecters for day-long confidence!

First things first: Be Patient – This is physics, not magic, and it may take you several attempts before you truly understand where to put your Spouti™. Once you figure it out, you’ll find it takes only seconds to get Spouti™ in place, so give yourself the benefit of the doubt.

First you need to locate your urethra. Start checking about about 1cm above the vaginal entrance – you should notice the urethra. It sort of feels like a little donut shaped bump.

We recommend that people do this laying down the first few times because it really helps open everything up.

Release a small amount of urine into the tube to test placement and seal. We recommend testing this out in the shower the first few times! Once you’re stream is solid, without any leaks, you are good to go!

The support of your anatomy and your thighs is essential to keeping Spouti™ in place. It is important to keep your legs comfortably together while you are using Spouti™ so please no cowboy stances!

With your finger still on your urethra, place Spouti™ over your finger.

Be sure to push the back of the cup just a bit deeper to get Spouti™ centered over your urethra properly. You should notice the rim of the cup wrap around the “edge” of the entrance. This is intentional and helps with grip – this technique will help ensure Spouti™ isn’t sitting too close to your urethra

Ensure that everything is nice and dry – this is essential for a good seal. You may need to scoop your finger along the sides of the cup and help the labia wrap around more comfortably.
