Switching your period routine? Yeah⌠it can feel like a lot.
It took me nearly three years to try period underwear after a friend in college told me she loved hers. So trust... I get it. Trying something new, especially for your period, isnât always an easy yes.
But once you know what to expect, the switch gets a lot less intimidating.
⨠a few things to know before you try period underwear
Letâs start with the basics. The stuff that actually makes people feel better about switching:
-
they can hold more than you think
Our period underwear can hold 25ml (that's like 1 menstrual cup, 3 super tampons, or 5 pads!!) -
theyâre not just for light days
Theyâre great for light to moderate flow or as backup on heavier days. -
you can try them risk-free
Your first pair is covered by our 30-day my monthly guarantee. If you donât love your first pair, weâll refund you. No questions asked. -
they work like a pad (but feel way better)
They use absorbent layers, just like a pad, but without the bulk or discomfort. -
theyâre easy to wash and reuse
Toss them in the wash with similar colors, wash cold, and hang to dry. Thatâs it. (And if they accidentally end up in the dryer⌠youâll be okay. Weâve all been there.)
đ how to use period underwear
Itâs actually way simpler than people expect:
- wash before your first wear
- put them on like regular underwear
- go about your day
- after wearing, toss them in your laundry pile (no judgment if thatâs a corner of your room)
- change into a fresh pair as needed or before bed
Thatâs literally it.
đ what if youâre nervous about leaks?
Totally fair.
Trying something new with your period can feel risky, especially if youâve had bad experiences before.
Thatâs exactly why we designed our period underwear with a floating gusset.
It gives you the option to:
- add a pad for extra protection
- or just know you can if you need to
That extra layer of flexibility can make the switch feel a lot safer.
Baby steps = still steps.
đ you donât have to get it perfect
Thereâs no ârightâ way to switch.
You can:
- start by wearing them at home
- use them as backup at first
- or go all in when you feel ready
Whatever feels good for you.
