I have never felt so clean. Pads + period underwear has me so comfortable I almost forget I'm on my period. Life changing.

The fabric feels really soft and the style is super cute—it just looks like normal bikini underwear. I can barely feel it when I'm wearing it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much blood does your Period Underwear absorb?
Our Period Underwear absorbs about 25 mL (roughly the amount held by 3-4 regular tampons) of menstrual fluid. However, absorption is affected by many things, including your menstrual flow, position (sitting, standing, moving), and activity.
When should I wear Period Underwear?
Our Period Underwear can be worn as a replacement for your standard underwear. The absorbent gusset in our underwear provides protection against leaks, similar to a pad or liner. You can choose to wear Period Underwear as back-up protection with other period care products (tampons, cup, pad, etc.) or wear the underwear alone. You can wear Period Underwear during the day, overnight, or while being active. Some start by using Period Underwear as a replacement for a liner on the first or last days of your period. If you have a very irregular or unpredictable period, you might choose to wear them daily!
I’ve heard that some garments and textiles contain PFAS. Does your period underwear contain PFAS?
Cora period underwear is made without PFAS and is Standard 100 certified by Oeko-Tex. We also test each lot using an independent, accredited third party lab in the USA. The test showed that there are no PFAS/PFOA compounds at any detectable level.
How does the gusset in Period Underwear work?
Each pair of underwear has a “gusset” with a four-layer absorbent core designed to pull up to three tampons’ worth of liquid away from the body and create secure leak protection. On a pair of medium-sized period underwear, this gusset spans the panel of fabric between the legs and approximately 2.5” additional inches up the back. It's made from 91% polyester and 9% elastane. It's similar to fleece and highly absorbent.
