Will my husband be able to find disposable urine leakage pads on the Camino?

Incontinence supplies, productos de incontinencia, for women and men are widely available throughout Spain; in both pharmacies and often in regular super markets on shelves with other toiletries. Prices are very resonable.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
If there is not a separate section for productos de incontinencia, look for the area where feminine hygiene products are sold. They may be inter-mixed.
 
Will my husband be able to find disposable urine leakage pads on the Camino?
‘Hola, vendes compresas de incontinencia masculinas por favor’. The first phrase of Spanish I mastered. And the answer in Farmicias was always ‘Si Senor’. No problems. I carried 2 weeks supply and extra cotton undies with sewn-in pads just in case. All just extra, un-needed weight. This year when I go again - I will just carry a few days supply and top-up regularly at the always convenient pharmacies. Each to his own and of course only he knows his ‘leakage rate’ and hence his comfortable ‘safety factor’, but I had no problems. Good luck and Cooee from Oz.

I asked at a pharmacy but could not get men’s pads; had to make do with thin ladies pads.
This year I plan to take my usual ones with me

Hola, I gearing up to start my 1st CdS and have seen people recommended sleeping bag liners to protect against bed bugs. Do these help or is it a myth? Should I add the extra weight of bringing one?

Well…… about $400 usd in socks and liners later and about 160 miles. I live in California near the Sierra mountains so we have some good trails and heat- I wanted to find my perfect combination...
