1 pair absorbs 9 tampons of flow
Absorbs up to 9 tampons worth of flow! Perfect for super heavy days.

Hi, I’m the Heavy High Waisted with an Extended Gusset. If I could, I would have called myself The Heavy Heavy High Waisted. I’m the exact same style as your favorite Heavy High Waisted Period. but with one big difference - I have an extended absorbent gusset that goes all the way from the top of the front to the top of the back. In other words, my absorbent panel is maxed out to as far as you can take it, so you can have even more confidence in going leak-free. I’m perfect for those first few heavy days when you might be back-flowing, front-flowing, or everywhere-flowing. It’s okay. We’ve all been there. I’m super soft, made of comfy cotton, and here to give you the super safe feeling that we all want on our heavy days. 

When to wear: on those days when you need all out protection.

This style is intended for postpartum use and is very supportive in the lower abdomen area. if you want a more relaxed fit, we recommend sizing up. 

You can see our size chart here.

Our Fabrics

Body: 95% Organic Cotton with 5% Spandex Jersey

Absorbent Layer: 100% Polyester  

Leak Resistant Layer: 100% Polyester PUL

 

How to take care of your Period.

Rinse any fresh blood off in the sink or the shower.

Hang to dry then add to your laundry pile. 

Machine wash warm, no bleach.

Tumble dry low. Do not dry clean or iron. 

Each pair of Period. underwear can hold up to 9 tampons worth of blood.

Check out our absorbency test video here.

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 Coral Reef: Hi! Thank you for using non disposable products. It may feel like a small gesture - but it’s not. I’m sick of getting tampons and pads getting caught up in my beautiful branches and you’re helping to keep that trash out of my home. Just one pair of Period means that 5 pads/9 tampons are never used or thrown away. Thank you! Next time you swim by me, stop and say hi.

    Perfect!

    I love these and they’re perfect for night for me. If I want to make sure Im super safe from leaks on very heavy days (without any other protection) these are the underwear I pick. I really appreciate how far up the back the padding goes.

    Pretty good

    This pair is pretty thick, and on a super heavy flow morning it held a few hours worth of blood rather than 2 hours like my overnight infinity pad...so overall I think it did it's job pretty well. I must have been really heavily bleeding because before I decided to change it in those few hours i did the toilet paper blot check and it was coming through the bottom of the underwear. 😬

    Love the new extra coverage

    As someone with PCOS and crazy heavy flows, I LOVE the new extra coverage. I waited for months and months for them to be back in stock and it did not disappoint. So nice to have an option for those super heavy flow days without wearing overnight shorts all day long. Please keep these in stock!!

    I love this underwear. very comfortable and protects from any leaks. I got 5 to start out and though they fit they were a little tighter than I expected so I sized up on and got 8 more and they are perfect. I will be telling family and friends about these.
