How does period underwear work?
Period underwear are panties that have a special membrane system. This multi-layered fabric is absorbent, so it can hold menstrual blood and prevent leaks.
The membrane system is visually unobtrusive and does not interfere when worn. This means that you can rely on the period panties being particularly comfortable to wear.
Once the panties have reached their maximum absorbency, they can be easily changed and washed in the washing machine. This makes period underwear a reusable menstrual product that helps you avoid a lot of unnecessary waste.
How absorbent is period pants?
The absorbency of period underwear varies from model to model. It is usually expressed in tampons to make it easy to compare.
Some panties can absorb about as much fluid as 1.5 to 2 tampons. This makes them the ideal choice for light menstrual bleeding or even bleeding between periods and vaginal discharge.
Particularly absorbent period panties are even able to absorb as much fluid as 5 or 6 normal tampons. With such a model, you are usually well equipped even for heavy bleeding.
Will the period underwear protect me during heavy bleeding?
We know from customer testimonials that our absorbent period knickers offers sufficient protection in most cases, even with heavy bleeding. So the chances are more than good that this is also the case for you.
If you haven't worn period underwear before, we recommend that you try them out at home first. This way, you can quickly find out if a pair of panties is enough for you and how long you can wear them at a time before you need to change them.
Combine period underwear with other hygiene products
If period panties are not enough for you because of the amount of bleeding you have, or if you just don't feel safe enough, you can use your period panties in combination with other sanitary products.
In this case, wear the period panties in addition to a tampon or menstrual cup. In this way, you are optimally protected even during heavy menstrual bleeding and don't have to worry about possible mishaps in everyday life.

With these two menstrual panties, you can rely on reliable protection even on the heavier days of your period or when you have heavy bleeding in general.
How will I know if I need to change my period panties?
The special membrane system ensures that the period panties absorb the menstrual blood directly and store it in a leak-proof way. This ensures that everything feels pleasantly dry during your period.
When the period panty has reached its maximum absorbency, you will notice that it starts to feel a little damp. Once this is the case, it's time to change it and slip into a fresh pair of menstrual panties.
How often do I need to change my period underwear?
How long you can wear your period panties at a time depends on their absorbency as well as how heavy your bleeding is. For some women, the panties stay dry for about five hours, while others may not need to change them for eight or nine hours.
Regardless, you should not wear your mestrual underwear for more than 12 hours at a time to ensure good hygiene.
In general, you can expect to change into a fresh pair of period underwear once or three times a day. After a while, you will know from experience how often you should change your period underwear in order to feel safe and dry.
