• This is Maria. Founder of ELSAWEAR. First I came across this fantastic product a few years ago. Since then I have tested lots of period panties to find the best combination of style, and absorption which are the most comfortable, stylish and yet fun to wear during those difficult days.
• We prefer natural materials for our panties, and we only use 100% eco-cotton or antibacterial eco-bamboo in the sensitive areas.
• Unlike other period underwear brands, we have developed our INNOVATIVE WATERPROOF SIDE-LEAK TECHNOLOGY to avoid leaks on the side seams.

Elsawear period panties are machine-washable and reusable period-proof and absorbing underwear, providing a much more sustainable alternative to single-use products. EW period panties are designed in a range of absorbencies. They look and feel like regular underwear, but they're designed to keep moisture away from your skin as they soak up menstrual blood. Every pair of Elsawear period underwear consist of a moisture-wicking / anti-odor fabric, an absorbent layer, which keeps the discharge inside and there is a waterproof, breathable tpu layer, which prevents panties from leaking.

Start with selecting the desired absorption first, then select model and size. If you are completely new to period panties we recommend trying a pair with super absorption. Then there is the best chance they will handle your needs and you don`t have to change your panties often.
