Ostomy Fit FinderYour pouching-system starting point
A few questions about your stoma, and we'll suggest a starting fit for you to confirm with your stoma care nurse.
Find your pouching-system starting point
This tool uses published stoma-care guidance to suggest a starting point — aperture size, barrier profile, and products. It supports, never replaces, professional stoma care.
Before we talk about products…

These signs need medical attention — not a product change
Please contact your stoma care team or seek urgent care now. When this is settled, come back and we'll help with the fit.

Clearly raised
about 5–20 mm
A clear spout
over 20 mm (about 2 finger-widths)

The area around your stoma
Sit upright without the pouch on — a mirror helps.
Flat / regular
Dips inward
a soft hollow around it
The skin around it bulges
a mound under the skin beside the stoma
The stoma itself sticks out further than before
