Menstrual underwear made in Quebec

Discreet lining in natural fibers

An absorbent lining is already present in the menstrual 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 menstrual underwear. It is longer at the front and back than standard sewing templates to ensure perfect protection.

The lining is available in two colors. Natural (color unbleached natural: for sensitive skin or prone to infections which 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 underwear is made of a thin layer of 100% PUL. This makes the menstrual underwear impervious to any blood leaks trying to pass through.

Light or heavy flow for a menstrual underwear?

The menstrual panties adapt well to all flows. For more comfort, women with a heavy flow might prefer wearing a Diva Cup ou d'un menstrual cup. For light to medium flow, the menstrual panty with 3 inserts is sufficient for daytime. The insert also allows you to change only the inside without having to change the underwear during the day.

Insert removable menstrual

It is possible to add a removable insert to the underwear 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.
  • Attaches with snap fasteners (super thin, you won't feel them, promise!), to stay firmly in place no matter the activity.
  • Interchangeable as many times as you want throughout your menstrual flow.
