1 pair absorbs 9 tampons of flow

Heavy absorbency: designed for heavy nights, mid flow nights and outrageous day 1s.  

Absorbs up to 10 tampons or 6 pads of flow. 

I’m dedicated to giving you a good night’s sleep on your period. I have a built in five layer padding that absorbs vertical flow and horizontal flow, because when you sleep your period can flow a little differently and I want to make sure your night is leak proof.  I’m made of soft organic cotton and am cozy, comfy and snug so you feel safe and secure and like you’re wearing a combo of your favorite leggings and PJs. I’m also great for those outrageous first heavy days, when if you have an option of laying on a couch all day, you take it. Sleep well.

When to wear: on heavy nights, or very heavy days.

This style fits like a true bike short. If you want a more relaxed fit, we recommend sizing up!

You can see our size chart 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 used tampon: Hi, I’m a tampon that was last used in 1946 - only once - and I’m still languishing on a land fill. As you can imagine, I’ve had a lot of time to reflect. What was the point of me? Why did someone use me once for just a few hours and nearly a hundred years later, I’m still here? Why? This feels like a pretty stupid system to me. Please overthrow it! Please use non-disposable products so that no tampon ever has to feel this useless again. Thank you.

    Great shorts!

    These were very absorbent and very comfortable and not too tight around the belly. I was very happy with them.

    Recommend sizing down

    I have always loved all my underwear from Period.! I have different styles (from Period.) all in medium which fit perfectly. Unfortunately, the size medium Sleeper shorts are very baggy and not comfortable for overnight protection as they move around on my body even just walking around :( I would size down from your usual Period. size to get the "bicycle short" fit they advertise- I do think I would love them if they fit! Disappointed as I have been eyeing these for a while

    I wish the waistband was more stretchy, and it's not comfortable that they don't absorb to keep you dry down there. It's like putting on a wet swimsuit any time you have to use the restroom. I do like the leakage protection .

    First time buying these after using Thinx and it’s so much better if you’re a crazy sleeper BUT on the bigger side it doesn’t feel like there’s much elastic so it slides down easily. Other than that it’s great!
