ABSTRACT:
A supporter encloses the scrotum in a porous pouch having a top opening. The top opening of the pouch is drawn closed with a closure about the tissue at the top of the scrotum and penis. This is the point of smallest diameter. When closed, the pouch is held in place at the closure without need for straps around the body and without undue tightness at the closure. The embodiment for support of the scrotum has an aperture for the penis to pass through. In an alternative embodiment for urinary incontinence, the pouch encloses both penis and scrotum. It is lined with absorbent material and has a waterproof outer coating.
