• Position yourself comfortably. Arrange clothing so it is out of the way.
• If sitting on the toilet, spread your legs apart. If lying down, knees can be straight or bent.
• Hold the penis upright on the sides so that the urethra is not pinched.
• Retract the foreskin if the penis is uncircumcised.
• Wash the glans penis from the urethral opening (tip) to the base of the glans with soap, water and washcloth or unscented disposable wipe.
• Wash with a circular motion from the tip outward.

Instructions for Men

While holding the penis upright with one hand at a 45 to 60-degree angle from the body slowly
insert the lubricated catheter into the penis using your dominant hand gently slide the catheter
until you meet resistance at the urethral sphincters do not pull the catheter in and out when you meet resistance just apply gentle but firm continuous pressure until the catheter advances into the bladder.

Insert the Urethral Catheter Cure Catheter™ Coude Tip Hydrophilic 16Fr until urine begins to flow if you are standing in front of the toilet or sitting on it with legs spread apart  the urine can drain into the toilet if you are lying down place the funnel end of the catheter into a container to collect the urine hold it in place
until urine stops flowing.

Continue….

When urine stops flowing, slowly rotate between your fingers while withdrawing. If urine starts to flow again when withdrawing, stop each time it
flows and let the urine drain. Slowly withdraw until the bladder is
Empty and the catheter is removed. If you are uncircumcised, make sure you bring the foreskin back over the glans penis when you are finished.

Some men have very tight sphincters or an enlarged prostate which makes it difficult to pass into the bladder.

A catheter with a special, curved (Coude) tip may make passing the catheter easier.
