Do you also pray that you don't get your period while you're on vacation?
Summer is fast approaching and it's time to start looking for the perfect swimsuit to enjoy your vacation in the sun.
For many of us, this is also the time when we start calculating our menstrual cycle, praying that our period doesn't fall during our beach holiday! Unfortunately, we can't control nature and sometimes we have to deal with it.
But there is a practical and effective solution: the menstrual swimsuit .
What is a period swimsuit? 👙
Menstrual swimwear is designed to contain menstrual flow without the need to use tampons or sanitary napkins. It is made from materials that resemble those of menstrual underwear, with an absorbent area.
As beautiful as our classic swimsuit bottoms, these panties are a real revolution! They can be worn for up to 6 hours.
The menstrual swimsuit can be worn alone for a light flow or on the days when your period starts/ends, or in combination with a tampon or menstrual cup for extra protection: it's the ideal solution for heavy flows, no more risk of leakage!
It is also practical for those who have relatively significant white discharge: the waterproof membrane prevents any inconvenience.
Easy to use, just wear it like a regular swimsuit and wash it after use.
How to take care of it? 🧼
As with menstrual panties, after wearing it, simply rinse it well with clean water and then wash it by hand or put it in the washing machine, with a delicate program at 20°. Warning: the use of a tumble dryer is prohibited! Dry your swimsuit in the open air, preferably in the shade.
You can also wash it by hand: rinse your swimsuit well, clean it with a mild soap, rinse and let it dry. That's it! All you have to do is wear it again the next day ;)
Concretely, what are the advantages of the period swimsuit?
Menstrual swimwear has many benefits. First of all, it provides comfortable and discreet protection during your period. In addition, it is more environmentally friendly than regular sanitary protection, as it is reusable and does not contribute to menstrual waste.
Finally, they are also practical because they allow menstruating people to enjoy the beach or the swimming pool without having to worry about changing protection after a few hours!
Its waterproofness is maximum: the blood will not disperse in the water, the panties will not swell and you will not stain your beach towel, we promise! Just adapt the use of the panties to your flow and you will see, it will be a real revolution.
