An example fluid collection assembly (100) includes a sheath (102) and a base (104). The sheath includes a fluid impermeable barrier (106) formed from at least a first panel (108) and a second panel (110). The first panel and the second panel at least partially define a chamber (112) therebetween. The fluid impermeable barrier also defines a fluid outlet (118) at a distal end of the sheath and an opening (114) at a proximal end of the sheath. The sheath also includes at least one porous material (122) disposed in the chamber. The base is permanently secured or configured to be permanently secured to the sheath. The base defines an aperture (124) that is aligned with the opening when the base is permanently attached to the sheath. The base is configured to be secured to a region about a penis of an individual with the aperture positioned over the penis.
