Menstrual panties 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 mishaps. 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 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 on the inside of the menstrual underwear

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

Light or heavy flow for menstrual panties?

The menstrual underwear adapts well to all flows. For added comfort, women with a heavy flow might prefer wearing a Diva Cup cup or of a menstrual disc. For light to medium flow, the menstrual panties with 3 inserts are sufficient for daytime use. The insert also lets you 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 underwear to easily adapt to the menstrual cycle:

• One insert by day or by night Marie thread (optional) :
  • Ensures a double absorbent and waterproof protection thanks to its composition identical to the gusset of the menstrual underwear.
  • Snaps onultra-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 underwear means choosing to be comfortable and feel good in your skin, whether menstruating or not. And together, more than ever, we’re helping to make a meaningful eco-responsible gesture for the environment. 💚

Why choose hemp?*

Hemp is the future for the environment. Its processing requires
very little water and no chemicals. That's why Marie prefers hemp to bamboo. This fabric also has several properties:

• Antibacterial to reduce odors
• Hypoallergenic to eliminate irritation
• Maximum absorbency
• Soft when blended with cotton

Choose the right size for washable menstrual underwear:

Buying menstrual underwear online can be tricky. Every woman deserves a proper fit and to be comfortable during her period. Here are some tips regarding the Marie Fil size chart.

Size chart for Marie fil menstrual briefs

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