She talked about period and bladder leaks out loud. In Malaysia.
And built a brand from the silence everyone else was too shy to break.
Meet Uma Patel, the woman turning one of women’s most private struggles into a loud, proud movement for dignity, confidence, and real solutions.
Because this was never just about underwear. It was about freedom.
The Problem Women Were Told to Whisper About
Bladder leakage. Post-baby bodies. Menopause changes. Workout accidents.
So many women deal with it. Almost no one talks about it.
In Malaysia, it’s often brushed off with a nervous laugh or a quiet trip to the pharmacy aisle. The default option felt uncomfortable, bulky, expensive, and honestly… not it.
Uma lived that reality herself. She remembered what they felt like.
“I knew women deserved better,” she realized. “Not just something to hide the problem but something that actually made us feel normal again.”
That spark? It became LAPISZ.
Not Just Underwear Smart, Leak Proof Confidence
Uma discovered that in places like Australia and the United States, leak-proof garment underwear was already changing lives.
So, she brought the innovation home designed for Malaysian women, Malaysian weather, Malaysian bodies.
LAPISZ isn’t bulky. It doesn’t crinkle.
It doesn’t scream “medical product.”
It looks and feels like your favorite pair but inside, it’s built with high-tech absorbent layers that can hold up to 50ml of flow liquid. That’s the protection of multiple pads… without wearing one.
Wash. Reuse. Repeat.
Better for your wallet. Better for the planet.
Way better for your confidence.
Breaking a Taboo Bigger Than the Product Here’s the real tea: the hardest part wasn’t the technology. It was the mindset.
Women have been taught to just deal with it. Stay quiet. Adjust your life. Avoid jumping, laughing too hard, or wearing light colors.
Uma said no.
Through workshops, social media, and real, honest conversations, LAPISZ is helping women say the words “period and bladder leakage” without shame. They’re building a space where stories are shared, not hidden.
Because leaking doesn’t make you weak. Staying silent about it does.
For Every Stage Everybody Every Woman.
LAPISZ is for All Leaks.
It’s for women living real lives.
For the new mom who wants to sneeze without panic. For the gym girl who loves burpees but hates surprises.
For the confident queen in her 50s who refuses to slow down.
From menstruation to menopause, this is about owning your body, not apologizing for it.
The Bigger Win
Uma didn’t just launch a product. She started a cultural shift.
She proved that Malaysian women are ready for honest conversations, smarter solutions, and brands that actually get them.
And maybe the boldest part?
She made something once considered embarrassing feel empowering.
That era of settling? It’s fading.
Confidence, comfort, and sustainability? That’s the future.
And thanks to one woman who refused to stay quiet, more Malaysian women are walking into it feeling dry, secure, and unstoppable.
