Product Information

Full details

The WUKA Period Racerback Swimsuit is designed for adult females seeking discreet and effective menstrual protection during water activities. Its key benefit is allowing users to swim, splash, and relax with confidence, eliminating the need for pads or tampons. A potential caveat is that it is best suited for moderate flow or as a backup, rather than heavy periods on its own. This sleek one-piece integrates an ultra-absorbent gusset capable of holding up to 15ml of menstrual fluid, offering a stylish and high-performance solution for periods, holidays, or light bladder leaks. Made from durable, chlorine-resistant recycled nylon with UV50+ protection, it ensures longevity and comfort.

Does the swimsuit offer sun protection?

Troubleshooting

Swimsuit not absorbing as expected

Ensure the swimsuit has been washed before first use and is not being washed with fabric softener, which can impede absorbency. Check that the absorbent gusset is clean and free from residues.

Discomfort or poor fit

Verify you have selected the correct size. Ensure removable cups are positioned correctly. For future purchases, consult the sizing guide carefully.

Fabric showing signs of wear (e.g., fading, loss of elasticity)

Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals like strong chlorine or salt water without rinsing. Do not tumble dry or iron, and always air dry away from direct heat.
