High-Rise Gray Menstrual Brief

The Marie fil period underwear looks like a regular pair of women's panties, 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 it does so while being an eco-friendly alternative!

Menstrual panties made in Quebec

Discreet lining in natural fibers

An absorbent lining is already present in the menstrual panties to create a natural barrier for the underwear. 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 templates to ensure perfect protection.

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

Breathable, waterproof barrier inside the menstrual underwear

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

Light or heavy flow for period panties?

The menstrual underwear adapts well to all flow levels. For added comfort, women with a heavy flow may prefer to wear a Diva Cup cup or of menstrual cup. For light to medium flow, the menstrual panties with 3 inserts are sufficient for daytime use. The insert also allows you to change only the interior 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 insert by day or by night Marie thread (optional) :
  • Ensure 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, 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 underwear means choosing to be comfortable and confident in your own skin, whether you have your period or not. And together, now more than ever, we’re helping make an important eco-responsible gesture for the environment. 💚
