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.

    Decent but could use some improvements

    These are the first reusable pads I've tried, but I regularly use period underwear. I hate wearing normal pads because they're made of primarily plastic which makes my skin sweaty and produces a lot of waste, so I've wanted to try reusable pads for a while and finally decided to give these a try since I was ordering some Period. underwear too.

    The other reviews about the snaps are right, they can be really hard to snap closed, but all the snaps work for the pack of pads I got. I'm able to snap them to my underwear without too much effort, but I really struggle to snap them to hang them up to dry, and I don't know why. Thankfully that's not a deal-breaker for me since they snap when I need them to and unsnap easily.

    The stretchy straps that wrap around your underwear are a bit short for wider gussets and may bunch up your underwear a bit. These work great with underwear that have a separate gusset specifically for pads to attach to since the separate gussets tend to be a bit thinner and also helps to keep these pads from sliding too far forward or backward.

    While the outer layers of fabric that touch your skin are primarily cotton, the bias tape binding around the outside seems to be made of polyester or a polyester-blend, which irritates my skin when I'm moving around. These still work for lighter flow nights or when I'm just sitting around at home, but I'll need to find a way to cover the edges if I'm going to be walking or exercising when using these.

    These do absorb…

    Snaps don’t snap together

    I bought five of the pads a while back. I just started using them. They work great as far as not leaking, but on half of them the snaps don’t snap together. I sent them an email about it.

    Love the shape, width, and length! The material is nice and not irritating at all. I HATE the snap closures. I think metal snaps wouldve been a better choice, 2-3 of the pads will not snap closed :(

    Great absorbency and comfort

    I’m mostly satisfied with these pads. They are comfortable enough and super absorbent. Just one can hold up for an entire day of my heaviest flow. I love that they are mostly cotton and can be machine washed and dried!

    My only complaint is the snaps. They’re awful. Two pads absolutely refused to snap at all, so i contacted customer service, and they replaced them.
