1 pair absorbs 9 tampons of flow

Make any kind of underwear Period.™ underwear.

The most affordable, absorbent, toxin free, comfortable reusable pads. 

I’m a no brainer. I’m exactly like disposable pads, except you can keep reusing me and I am toxin free. Nasty plastic gone. Nasty bleach gone. I’m toxin-free organic cotton and super soft. Use me in your regular underwear, use me as extra back up in Period underwear, then throw me in the wash and I’m good to go again. I’m great for heavy and light days. 

Quick fact: did you know the plastic tape bit on disposable pads is one of the most polluting plastics in the world? It has a super high carbon footprint as well.

Each pad measures 10.25" long and 3.25" wide at the narrowest part.

How long will one pad 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.

Personal message from the entire ecosystem: thank you for using non-disposable products, it’s this kind of thinking that’s going to help save The Planet. Thank goodness, you came along.

    Works fine but snap buttons may be faulty

    It absorbs my period well, so no complaints there. But 2 of my pads have a defect with the snap buttons so they won’t close (or are too difficult to close). The snap buttons are also plastic if that bothers anyone.

    Great for the price and for trying out cloth pads for the first time

    Positives:

    - I love the plain black color. A lot of other cloth pads have very loud prints, and I don't really want that for myself

    - Price, very good price. I'm working on a broke college kid budget, and at this price for 5 pads, from a brand that looks reputable and well-liked. This is an absolute steal if you want to try out cloth pads. There is enough to start to use them on a regular period.

    - The smooth cotton outer layers feel very nice. I'm not sure how this will hold up, but I definitely prefer it to the fleece or flannel other brands use.

    Negatives:

    - Size could be an issue, especially if you have a heavy flow, or need an extra absorbent night pad.

    - I wish the wings were not just elastic fabric. This makes it hard to fold a pad and snap it closed for storage without making any wrinkles. If you wear boy short style underwear or anything with longer legs than that, you absolutely are not going to be able to use the wings as intended.

    Misc, neither good or bad per se

    - I can't attest to the pads absorbency, but it is definitely a little thick. But due to the outer fabric, its not uncomfortably so.

    - If you are not able to use the wings to secure the pad due to your underwear style, you will have to use safety pins. There isn't a grippy bottom fabric to the pad that could help it stay in place. Using safety pins was my plan already, so it is not a big deal for me.

    Would do 4.5 stars if possible, just some minor nitpicks, but overall I think these are great.

    Love the idea of these

    I love reusable products and these are so affordable. I am just in love with the idea of them though as they do not work for me. My flow goes towards the front and these just leak every single time. I want to love them so bad but they are just too narrow in the front without enough coverage. I have tried turning them around but it is too uncomfortable that way.
