1 pair absorbs 9 tampons of flow
Absorbs 9 tampons worth of flow or five pads. 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 do wear: on those days when you need all out protection. 

Trying to do period math? Click here to work out how many pairs you need for your period according to your Flow Threshold.

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 for a few seconds.

Either hand wash and hang dry, or add to the laundry pile.

Regular wash, no bleach.

Tumble dry low or hang dry.

Do not dry clean.

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

Check out our absorbency test video here.

You can see the length of the absorbent panel 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.

    Wanted to wait before I gave a review, and I've had my Period underwear for about a year now. I absolutely love them, and I've had no problems with them!!

    They’re ok

    They were saggy in the butt and leaked a little around the inside of my leg. I may try them again with tighter pajama pants to see if that holds them in place better. These are high waist and I’m only 5’2” so I may just be too short for the size I ordered.

    Runs big, so comfy, and customer service.

    I was waiting for the extended coverage undies. This is just what I need at night specifically. They land about a fingertip below my belly button and feel so comfortable! I originally bought a small since I looked more at the pant size (0-2) instead of the waist (26), so I ended up exchanging for xs and the exchange was easy. I give 4 stars because even in the xs there is still some extra room on my butt. I’m hoping that nothing will sneak out.

    Total game changer

    True to size and comfortable as heck. I've been using them for over a year now and they hold up extremely well. Easy to clean. Great coverage. And I barely notice they're on when I'm wearing them. Can't recommend enough. Love this brand and their products.

    Haven’t used these yet but they are massive and the pad is so thick. I don’t know if it’s worth paying less for such a bulky product vs a higher price for a thinner, more comfortable pair of undies.
