Modern menstrual care means comfort, sustainability, and confidence. Period underwear—including leakproof panties and leakproof underwear—offers reliable protection, but how often should you change them for optimal hygiene and peace of mind?

As a rule of thumb, change your period underwear every 8 to 12 hours, or sooner if you experience heavy flow. Absorbency levels vary, so assess your needs: higher absorbency is ideal for heavy days, while light-absorbency styles suit spotting or lighter flows. Always change your leakproof panties if they feel damp, start to smell, or after a full day of wear—freshness prevents irritation and safeguards vaginal health.
Pairing period underwear with a menstrual disc can boost your leak protection, especially overnight or on intense days. Many people find that combining both lets them stay active and confident, no matter their routine. Wash used pairs in cool water and avoid fabric softener to maintain absorbency and elasticity.
Choosing the right absorbency and changing regularly ensures you stay dry, clean, and comfortable while reducing waste. Embrace leakproof underwear as a convenient, eco-friendly option in your period care toolkit—it's a smarter solution for busy days and a more sustainable future for all.
