Answer: Every stoma is a little different in size and shape. Your stoma may
get smaller during the first six weeks after surgery, so it's good to measure it
frequently. Measure your stoma until it stops changing or if you are having
problems with leakage or skin irritation next to your stoma.
To choose the correct size Coloplast pouch, pick one that fits closely
around your stoma.
You can choose between one- and two-piece pouching systems.
Each has its advantages. Your pouching system should be secure, odor free
and comfortable, no matter what type you select. The skin barrier should be
changed regularly, once or twice a week.
