Periods can be uncomfortable, and traditional period products like pads and tampons can be inconvenient and environmentally harmful. That's where period underwear comes in. This innovative type of underwear is designed to absorb menstrual flow, providing comfort and protection while also being sustainable and convenient. If you're ready to maximise your menstrual comfort, here's a step-by-step guide on how to use period underwear:
-
Choose the right size: Period underwear comes in a range of sizes to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. Measure your hips and use the size chart provided to find the best size for you.
-
Wash your period underwear before use: Most period underwear should be washed before you wear it for the first time. This will help remove any excess dye and ensure that the absorbency layers are fully functional.
-
Wear your period underwear as you would regular underwear: Period underwear can be worn on its own or as a backup to another menstrual product like a tampon or menstrual cup. You can wear it during the day or overnight, depending on your needs and preferences.
-
Change your period underwear as needed: Our period underwear can hold several tampons' worth of menstrual flow. Our Super plus period underwear is designed to keep you dry for up-to 24 hours but it does depend on your flow. If you start to feel damp or wet its time to change them.
-
Wash your period underwear after use: After wearing your period underwear, rinse it out in cold water and then wash it with detergent in cold or warm water. Avoid using hot water or fabric softeners or the tumble dryer as these can break down the absorbency layers.
