Equinox Menstrual Panties

The Marie Fil menstrual underwear looks like a regular pair of women's panties, except it's perfectly designed for menstruation. Indeed, this feminine menstrual protection lets women lead an active life every week of the month... And all while being an eco-responsible alternative!

Menstrual briefs made in Quebec

Discrete lining in natural fibers

An absorbent lining is already present in the menstrual underwear to create a natural barrier for the panty. Although insufficient without a menstrual insert, it helps prevent unexpected leaks. The lining acts as a soft, built-in panty liner inside the menstrual underwear. It is longer at the front and back than standard sewing patterns to ensure perfect protection.

The lining is offered in two colors. Natural (color unbleached natural): for sensitive skin or skin prone to infections that allows you to see menstrual flow. Black: For easier maintenance since persistent stains are not visible.

Breathable and waterproof barrier inside the menstrual underwear

A breathable, waterproof barrier sewn into the liner is made from a thin layer of 100% PUL. This makes the menstrual underwear impervious to any blood leaks that might try to pass through it.

Light or heavy flow for menstrual underwear?

The menstrual underwear adapts well to all flows. For greater comfort, women with a heavy flow might prefer wearing a Diva Cup cutter or of a menstrual disc. For light to medium flow, the menstrual underwear with 3 inserts is sufficient for daytime use. The insert also allows you to change only the interior without having to change the underwear during the day.

Insert removable menstrual

It is possible to add a removable insert to the panties to easily adapt to the menstrual cycle:

• One insert by day or by night Marie thread (optional) :
  • Assures a double absorbent and waterproof protection thanks to its composition identical to the gusset of the menstrual underwear.
  • Snaps on (ultra-thin, you won't feel them, promise!), to stay securely in place no matter the activity.
  • Interchangeable as many times as you want throughout your menstrual flow.

Wearing the Marie Fil period panties means choosing to be comfortable and feel good in your skin, whether menstruating or not. And together, more than ever, we contribute to making an important eco-responsible gesture for the environment. 💚

Charter of sizes for Marie fil menstrual briefs

Order the right size of period underwear by measuring your hips, above the buttocks, using a tape measure held parallel to the floor. If you’re between sizes, choose the larger one. Periods often come with a bloated or sore abdomen.
