Menstrual Brief Knitted

La culotte menstruelle Marie looks like a regular women's underwear, except it's perfectly adapted for periods. Indeed, this feminine menstrual protection allows women to lead an active life every week of the month... And it does so while being an eco-responsible alternative!

Menstrual underwear made in Quebec

Discrete lining in natural fibers

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

The lining is offered in two colors. Natural (color natural unbleached): 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, waterproof barrier inside the menstrual panties

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

Light or heavy flow for period underwear?

The menstrual briefs adapt well to all flows. For added comfort, women with a heavy flow might prefer wearing a Diva Cup stem ou d'un menstrual disc. For light to medium flow, the menstrual underwear with 3 inserts is sufficient for daytime. The insert also lets you change just the inner pad without having to change the underwear during the day.

Removable menstrual insert

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

• One day or night insert Marie thread (optional) :
  • Ensure a double absorbent and waterproof protection thanks to its composition identical to the gusset of the menstrual briefs.
  • Fastens using snap fasteners (ultra-thin, you won't feel them, we 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 comfort and feeling good in your own skin, whether you’re menstruating or not. And together, now more than ever, we’re helping make an important eco-responsible gesture for the environment. 💚
