How to use and care for your menstrual panties

Nowadays, periods are increasingly called the fashionable phrase "free bleeding". Instead of coping with menstrual secretions with a special cup, tampon or pad, growing numbers of women are using modern and cozy underwear for menstrual cycle.

The panties are specially designed to make every girl or woman feel confident in any situation and day of the month.

What is hygienic underwear

Women at all times tried to look attractive and confident. And even the physiological characteristics of their bodies could not become an obstacle. For periods, a number of tools were invented and developed that helped the woman stay in order and feel relatively comfortable. Today, the most popular development in this area is reusable sanitary products.

This is a special underwear developed to be used during menstruation instead of disposable protective equipment. These panties are the best substitute to tampons or pads. Though some women choose to rely on such products only on lighter days. And during an abundant period, they are used as an additional means of protection for a pad or tampon. Sewn to look and feel like ordinary underwear, menstrual panties have extra layers of special fabric in the crotch area to maximize the absorption of menstrual secretion. Washing, putting on and washing again is the main advantage of reusable hygienic linen.

How do these panties work

The reusable period undies consist of a specially formulated absorbent material. It is able to hold a volume of liquid, which is equal to 1-2 tampons. A moisture-proof barrier provides comfort, and the last layer of fabric prevents any leaks or unpleasant stains. Still not sure about switching over and completely trust this underwear? Try using them at home and on the minor days of the cycle before moving on to regular use.

Reasons to choose hygienic underwear

Today, every woman has the right to pick hygiene products for periods. A wide range of products allows you to choose the perfect option. But lately, reusable menstrual products have become more popular. Why are sanitary panties so popular? Here are the main reasons:

  1. It is an ecological product that does not pollute the environment. The panties can replace 5 to 15 thousand pads and tampons (including their wraps and applicators) used in one woman's life, which may end up in landfills and in our oceans.
  2. Cost savings. If we calculate it, then every woman spends a huge amount in her entire life on hygiene products (from 3 to 10 thousand dollars). In contrast, a pair of reusable hygiene panties can be used for up to three years.
  3. Reliability. If you have moderate secretion, then the underwear is quite capable of protecting against leaks and unpleasant unforeseen situations during menstruation. In case of heavy discharge, they are used as an additional remedy.
  4. Aesthetic appearance. Those who are not familiar with the products are unlikely to be able to distinguish hygienic menstrual panties from ordinary ones at first glance. The variety of models and shapes makes it possible to wear it even under a light evening dress or tight-fitting light-colored trousers.

Aside from the factor of coziness and tightness, panties are also getting recognition as an environmentally maintainable and economically clever choice. Try them if you're looking for a decision that's not so exasperating than tampons, more suitable than pads. With such underwear, you are always ready for unforeseen situations.

How to take care of your hygienic underwear

It will not take you much effort and time to keep your menstrual panties presentable for a long time. Caring for them is quite simple. What do you have to do:

  1. Soaking. After removing your sanitary garment, immerse it in cold water to moisten or rinse it.
  2. Washing. This can be done manually or entrusted to a machine wash. For machine wash, place the garment in a washable mesh bag first and set it to a delicate or gentle cycle. In order to use the underwear longer, it is better to wash with a mild detergent.
  3. Drying. The use of a dryer is forbidden. Instead, lay the panties on a flat surface and place them outdoors, out of direct sunlight.

Worried about stains or ingrained odors? The underwear is designed to be non-staining and odorless when properly cared for. As a last resort, you can add a little vinegar to the water while soaking before washing.
