Find out why menstrual briefs are a great idea, and how to get the most out of them!
The ecological and financial impact of disposable sanitary pads
Every year, billions of tampons and sanitary pads end up in landfill or the oceans. These disposable pads, which often contain plastic, take hundreds of years to decompose and generate a high carbon footprint. A woman uses an average of 12,000 disposable menstrual pads in her lifetime. The cumulative cost? Several thousand euros.
Menstrual pants, on the other hand, can be washed and reused for years. So, by opting for this sustainable alternative, you're helping to drastically reduce your waste, while saving considerably in the long term.
How do you care for your menstrual pants to make them last?
Adopting menstrual pants is a financial investment. So it's important to learn how to care for them properly to maximize their lifespan. Here are a few simple tips:
Rinse with cold water: as soon as possible after use, rinse your panties with cold water to remove excess blood.
Hand or machine wash: use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softener, which can damage absorbent fibers.
Air-drying: prefer natural drying to preserve technical materials.
With these good practices, your menstrual panties can last several years, a considerable advantage for your wallet and for the planet!
A practical solution for first periods
For teenagers, menstrual panties are the ideal solution for the first period. Discreet, they can be worn like conventional underwear, without the need for additional tampons or pads. This ease of use reassures young girls, enabling them to live through this period with greater serenity. What's more, their modern design and comfort make them an attractive option for teenagers and their mothers alike.
Benefits for the planet, your wallet and your health
For the planet
Menstrual pants significantly reduce plastic waste and emissions linked to the production and transportation of disposable protection products.
For your wallet
Although a little more expensive to buy, they pay for themselves quickly thanks to their durability. A batch of panties is enough to cover several cycles, making this option much more economical in the long term.
For your health
Unlike disposable sanitary pads, which may contain undesirable chemicals, menstrual pants are made from soft, non-irritating materials. No more allergies, irritations or discomforts associated with tampons and pads!
Comfort and freedom: the incomparable advantages of menstrual pants
The comfort of menstrual pants is one of their major assets. Their absorbency rivals that of the best disposable pads, while offering a lightweight feel. You can wear them all day, in the office, at school or even at night, without fear of leaks. Their ergonomic design adapts to all body shapes for optimum support.
