Using tampons is not an ideal solution for everyone when it comes to swimming during their period.
Those who have had to give up swimming, competitions, or swimming lessons for this reason can now rejoice: menstrual swimwear is available.
Menstrual underwear and swimwear effectively absorb menstrual flow in the water – no more need for tampons!
More natural, without a tampon
For many girls and women, using a tampon is uncomfortable or even painful.
Inserting something into the body can feel unnatural and unconsciously cause stress or tension.
It can also lead to irritation.
Menstrual swimwear eliminates this discomfort and provides greater comfort and peace of mind.
With menstrual swim briefs, you almost forget that you are on your period – you can simply enjoy a pleasant time in the water.
How menstrual swimwear works
Menstrual swim briefs consist of four unique absorbent layers on the inside, as well as a water-repellent, well-fitting outer layer.
Pool water cannot penetrate the inside, preventing the absorbent section from becoming saturated.
Conversely, menstrual discharge cannot escape into the water.
Menstrual swimwear or swim briefs offer an absorbency capacity equivalent to 1 to 2 tampons.
How long they can be worn depends on each person’s body and flow.
In general, menstrual swimwear or swim briefs can be worn for an entire afternoon with light bleeding, or for around two hours with heavier flow.
These styles are also perfect for wearing under a wetsuit, thanks to their close-fitting cut.
They can be washed like menstrual underwear: simply in the washing machine, in a laundry bag, or by hand.
Suitable for teenagers and women
Menstrual swimwear is suitable for both teenagers and women and is available in several styles.
Swimming during your period thus becomes a comfortable, stylish, and stress-free experience.
