We recommend having styles with a few different absorbencies to suit different days of your period. ✔️ Absorbency: Period underwear is available in different absorbencies - some styles are meant to be worn without any other period products while others are intended as back-up protection. GH underwear pros found the key features to look for when shopping: With more and more period underwear styles available on the market, finding the right pair can be challenging. ✔️ Comfort and fit: In addition to all our Lab evaluations, every pair was sent to five testers of different sizes and menstrual flows to receive feedback on leaks, comfort, fit, absorbency and more. As no one just sits still when on their period, this test determines if the period underwear will be absorbent at different angles too. After a pair was washed two times, we evaluated runoff, which refers to how much cough syrup will roll off the underwear when it’s tilted to a 45 degree angle. ✔️ Wash and wearability: Our pros also evaluated shrinkage after one and five washes. This test was completed when each pair was brand new and again after one and five washes.
to see if the period underwear will keep you dry!).
Once completely absorbed, we placed filter paper on top then added a ten-pound weight before reevaluating the filter paper to see how well the period underwear held onto the fluid (i.e.
To measure absorbency speed, we applied cough syrup to the underwear with a syringe and timed how long it took for it all to completely absorb into the pad. ✔️ Absorbency speed: We used cough syrup to mimic the viscosity of menstrual flow just as manufacturers do to test pads and tampons. Then we sent each style home with consumer testers to evaluate comfort and style. In the Lab, we evaluated absorbency speed, shrinkage and runoff to ensure that each product we recommend will perform.
