ABSTRACT:
A new and improved sanitary device and method of using the device by a male wearer is disclosed. The sanitary device comprises a U-shaped pad having a rear and two side arms extending away in parallel from the rear zone. The two side arms define a penile/scrotum collar. When the rear zone is placed around the buttocks area of the male wearer the two side arms are graspable by the male wearer so that the penile/scrotum collar may be pulled underneath the penis and scrotum area of the male wearer. In this manner of wearing the sanitary device underneath the penis and scrotum, physical restraints on the penis and scrotum are minimized while simultaneously allowing fluids to be adsorbed by the U-shaped pad.

The middle layer comprises a liquid adsorbent material.
