FAQs
How often should I change my Modibodi period pants?
This depends on your flow. For moderate flows, they can typically be worn for up to 8 hours. You may need to change them more frequently on heavier days or use them as a backup with other menstrual products.
Can I wear these overnight?
The moderate absorbency is designed for daytime use or lighter overnight flows. For very heavy overnight flows, it's recommended to use a higher absorbency Modibodi product or a backup method.
How do I wash them safely?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Do not use fabric softeners or harsh detergents. Hang to dry – do not tumble dry or expose to high heat.
How many pairs do I need?
The number of pairs needed varies per person. A general recommendation is to have enough for a full day's use, typically 3-5 pairs for a moderate flow cycle, depending on how often you wish to wash them.
Are these suitable for sensitive skin?
The outer material is made from breathable bamboo, which is generally considered soft and hypoallergenic. The Merino Wool layer also has natural anti-microbial properties. However, if you have specific sensitivities, always patch test or consult a doctor.
What is the absorbency level equivalent to?
The moderate absorbency holds up to 30ml, which is roughly equivalent to 5-6 light tampons.
Can I wear them with regular underwear?
Modibodi period pants are designed to be worn as your primary underwear during your period, replacing the need for separate tampons, pads, or liners.
Troubleshooting
Period pants are not absorbing as expected.
Ensure you have washed the garment before its first use. Avoid using fabric softeners or strong detergents, as these can impede absorbency. Wash the garment again following the care instructions.
Slight leakage occurs.
Check that the garment is the correct size and fits snugly. Ensure the absorbent gusset is properly aligned. For heavier flows, consider using a backup product or trying a higher absorbency Modibodi style.
Garment feels uncomfortable or stiff after washing.
This may be due to detergent residue or excessive heat during drying. Try a cold wash on a gentle cycle and hang to dry. Avoid harsh detergents and tumble drying.
Odor persists after washing.
Ensure the garment is thoroughly rinsed after washing. The Merino Wool layer helps with odor control, but proper rinsing and complete drying are crucial. Avoid leaving damp garments in a pile.
