1 pair absorbs 9 tampons of flow

Super absorbent, sleek style made for heavy days. 

Absorbs 9 tampons worth of flow or five pads. 

Yup. I’m for those days when your period has your foot down on the flow pedal. I have a little less fabric than the high-waisted, but with the same four-layer towel system I have just as much absorbency. My padding is designed to take whatever the flow throws, while making you feel extra secure and safe. Oh, did I also mention how cozy and comfy I am? Anything a tampon or pad can do, I can do so much better. 

When to wear:  On your heaviest days. Also great for postpartum and perimenopause.

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 an Octopus: Hi. I wanted to send you a personal message of gratitude for being conscious enough to stop using disposable products. Imagine me now, shaking your hand eight times. That’s what I’m doing. And sending you good energy with my two hearts. Tampons and pads take generations to biodegrade, cause endless pollution and they are frankly stupid inventions - and I should know what stupid is because I have eight brains. Be proud of yourself - you’re making a big change.

    Better than expected

    These are comfy and they do hold a lot! I like them better than other period underwear I have tried and I hope they last!

    Ok, but not my favorite

    I've found that this type is pretty comfortable and fits pretty true to size. However one of the pairs is basically fallen apart (stitching at the hems came undone) Also I'm finding it's not actually working for heavy flow. I don't if I just tend to flow in one spot, but it's definitely less than the 9 tampons worth of blood. And then it's like it starts absorbing under the hem and into the outer layer. My sporty period has held up a lot better and doesn't seem to have the same problem, so I'll probably mostly stick to that one.

    Restful Night’s Sleep

    I love these period undies for night time. I can sleep in any position, no leaks, and even on my heaviest flow I don’t have to get up in the middle of the night to change out a pad. Recommend these to all my girls.
