Provincial Blue Menstrual Brief

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

Period underwear 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 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 offered in two colors. Natural (color unbleached natural): for sensitive skin or prone to infections which allows the menstrual flow to be visible. Black: For easier maintenance since persistent stains are not visible.

Breathable, waterproof barrier inside the period 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 it.

Light or heavy flow for a menstrual brief?

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 menstrual cup. For a light to medium flow, the menstrual briefs with 3 inserts are sufficient for daytime use. 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) :
  • Ensures a double absorbent and waterproof protection thanks to its composition identical to the gusset of the menstrual panties.
  • Attaches with snap fasteners (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 menstrual underwear means choosing to be comfortable and feel good in your own skin, whether you have your period or not. And together, now more than ever, we’re helping make a meaningful eco-friendly choice for the environment. 💚

Why choose hemp?*

The hemp plant is the future for the environment. Its processing requires

• Antibacterial to limit odors
• Hypoallergenic to eliminate irritations
• Maximum absorbency
• Soft when blended with cotton

Marie menstrual underwear size chart

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 belly.
