FAQs

How many pairs of Modibodi period pants do I need?

For a full cycle, it is recommended to have 3-5 pairs to allow for rotation and washing. This ensures you always have a clean pair ready for use.

Can I wear these overnight?

These are rated for moderate to heavy daytime flows (30ml). For overnight protection, especially on heavier nights, Modibodi offers specific 'overnight' styles with higher absorbency. You can also use these with a tampon or cup for added security.

How do I know when to change them?

You change them as you would change a tampon or pad. When you feel wetness or notice discharge, it's time to change into a fresh pair.

How long do Modibodi period pants last?

With proper care, Modibodi period pants can last for several years, typically 1-2 years or more, depending on usage and care frequency.

Are they safe to wear for extended periods?

Yes, the breathable bamboo fabric and absorbent layers are designed for comfort and safety throughout the day. Ensure you change them when they reach their absorbency capacity.

Can I swim in Modibodi period pants?

Modibodi period pants are not designed for swimming. They are intended for menstrual fluid absorption during wear, not for blocking water.

What does 'moderate absorbency' mean?

Moderate absorbency means the underwear can hold up to 30ml of fluid, which is equivalent to about 6 light tampons. This is suitable for average to heavier period days.

Troubleshooting

Period pants do not feel absorbent or leak.

Ensure the garment was washed before first use to activate its absorbency. Check that you are not exceeding the moderate absorbency limit (30ml) and that the garment is completely dry before wearing.

Fabric feels stiff or less soft after washing.

Avoid using fabric softeners and harsh detergents. Ensure you are washing on a cold cycle and not exposing the garment to high heat during drying. Hang to dry naturally.

Odour persists after washing.

Rinse the garment immediately after use before washing. Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing. Wash with a mild detergent and consider a vinegar rinse if odour is a persistent issue, but ensure no vinegar residue remains.

Underwear is uncomfortable or riding up.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The high-waisted design and lace waistband are intended for a snug but comfortable fit. Check the sizing guide if unsure.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Before your first use, it is essential to wash your Modibodi period pants. This step helps to activate the absorbent technology within the gusset.

Compatibility: These period pants are designed for female use and are suitable for moderate to heavy menstrual flows. They can be worn alone or as a backup with other menstrual products like tampons or menstrual cups for added security.

Care Recommendations:

  • Wash on a gentle cycle using cold water.
  • Hang to dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods if possible, to preserve fabric integrity.
  • Do NOT use fabric softeners.
  • Do NOT use strong detergents.
  • Do NOT tumble dry, as high heat can damage the absorbent layers.
  • Do NOT soak the garments.
  • Once dry, store in a dry laundry bag.
