WHAT IS PERIOD UNDERWEAR?
Period pants or menstrual underwear refers to normal knickers with a built-in absorbent liner. This consists of multiple layers and provides protection against leakage and unpleasant odours while you are on your period. Period knickers are worn just like normal ones and they don’t look any different from conventional underwear.Depending how heavy your flow is, period pants can provide up to 12 hours of leakage protection. For additional protection you can wear them while using a menstrual cup or disposable products.

Compared to tampons or pads, they are much better for the environment and you not only reduce waste, but also save money in the long term.

HOW DOES PERIOD UNDERWEAR ACTUALLY WORK?
Our period knickers feature a special technology that absorbs and retains liquid without leaking. You’ll stay dry and will feel secure no matter what you’re doing, be it working, meeting up with friends or practising yoga. It’s all thanks to SELENAtec® multi-layer technology, which consists of:
Layer 1: Liquid is quickly and reliably wicked away.
Layer 2: Liquid is reliably absorbed to keep you feeling dry.
Layer 3: Breathable, leak-proof protective membrane for extra protection and wearing comfort.
Layer 4: This skin-friendly fabric ensures that the underwear is as comfortable to wear as normal knickers.
Despite these four layers, the material is very thin – less than 4 millimetres to be precise. Rest assured: our period knickers are as comfortable to wear as normal underwear.
UP TO 12 HOURS LEAKAGE PROTECTION WITH OUR PERIOD UNDERWEAR
Depending on the model, our period underwear can absorb up to 35 ml of liquid. The average person loses between 30 and 60 ml of blood every day during their period. Therefore, on medium and light-flow days, the underwear is practically all you need for the whole day. How often you change your period underwear depends on how heavy your flow is. On heavy days, or when you cannot change the underwear after 12 hours, we recommend also using a menstrual cup or single-use products.
WASHING & LOOKING AFTER YOUR PERIOD UNDERWEAR (QUICK GUIDE)
The advantage of our sustainable period underwear is that you can wash them just like normal underwear. Here’s how:
- After wearing, rinse in cold water and add to a darks load.
- Wash at 30 to 40 degrees
- Leave to air dry
After use, rinse the period pants under cold running water. Then you can machine wash them with other dark garments. Washing at 30 degrees is perfectly sufficient; we also tested washing the underwear at 60 degrees and there were no ill effects. However, by washing at low temperatures, you help protect the environment. Do not use any bleach or fabric softener and leave the underwear to air dry after washing.
