For medium to light absorbency. Built for when your period is easing out of the heavy days. Also great for everyday pee leaks! 

Absorbs up to 4 regular tampons worth of flow. 

Hi. I’m the perfect pair of high-waisted for when your flow begins to lessen, or for birth control periods. What’s a birth control period!? Well, when you just don’t know what’s coming. I’ve got light padding so I’m great for bulky-phobes but you’ll be shocked at how absorbent I am. Not toxic shocked though! Phew. Let’s leave that to the tampons. I’m also great for periods that can’t quite end and for panty-liner lovers. I’m made from super soft brushed microfiber with an organic cotton gusset. I also bring a light mood with me. You’re welcome.  

When to wear: medium days, light days, what the hell, everyday!

How long will one pair of Period. last?

Everybody periods differently so it’s tough to be exact. Our average time is about 8 hours on a heavier flow day. Though some customers need to change after 3 to 4 hours, and others can go up to 14 hours (lucky them!). As your period gets lighter, one pair can take you through the day and night (just like regular underwear). But again, everybody Periods differently, so you need to take one cycle to figure out exactly how often you need to change. Start with a conservative estimate on your heavy days, and check in on your Period underwear after 4 hours. If you still feel good, give it another hour. Keep going until you figure out your limit. Here at Period, we find we need between 3 to 4 pairs on the first two heavy days, including evenings. And if you leak, please forgive us! Just this once. (Remember how many tampons you have forgiven). Treat the ‘leak’ as a gift and note the hour of your leakage. That is the best indicator of your ‘flow threshold’ how long the underwear will last for you.

Message from a Star Fish: I wanted to tell you that on this rare instance, I’m not the star. You are. By wearing just one pair of Period, you’ve saved the world from 4 tampons that will take generations to decompose and let’s not get into pads. Thank you from the bottom of the ocean.

    Amazing! Literally life changing

    I am obsessed with this company and their products. I own like 12 pairs now and I want to buy more🤣 the microfiber fabric ones and sporty ones are my faves because the cotton ones tend to be a little tighter after washing and drying. I absolutely love that these are reusable, earth friendly and effective as well as great price! Totally recommend them

    I like the cotton, I LOVE the microfiber

    I will be purchasing more of these for sure. I’ve been using Period. underwear for well over a year now. Not just for periods but for pre-and post-pregnancy bladder leaks. This was my first order of microfiber and I’m definitely sold. They’re much thinner and softer and feel really good on my skin. They absorb well too!

    Defective pair

    I must have a defective pair because they bled right through to my pants! They are missing any waterproof layer and they only absorb in the center at the crotch, they don't grab any blood at the front or back. Also, they fit too big. I bought according to chart and they are too big and ride up so high all the way up to my bra!

    Perfect fit. The coverage on these is great. It feels like I’m wearing nothing at all. No pinching or bunching up. How they’ll do on my period remains to be seen but no complaints so far. I’ll definitely be getting more of these. They’re going to be the only underwear I wear from now on.
