What is period underwear for sports?
Period underwear delivers undetected protection, for periods and all types of leaks. Naturally our bodies sweat, but even more so when we play sports. Wearing period underwear when playing sports on your period can help keep you dry down there. Simultaneously, it can also offer an alternative to traditional single-use period products. Available in a variety of absorbency levels, some can be worn as a back up to a tampon or cup. As you shop, familiarize yourself with the various absorbency levels to find your flow.
