If you are currently hesitating to choose this type of solution, the following few lines could well reassure you. Women who cannot tolerate other types of hygienic protection choose to rely on the products of our design.

WHAT ARE MENSTRUAL PANTIES?

 

Menstrual panties, if we still need to present them on our site, are reusable hygienic protection. They are presented as traditional underwear, which you just need to wear every day during your menstruation. Thanks to their four successive layers of fabric, the menstrual panties signed by our brand allow perfect absorption, whatever the abundance of the flow. They are therefore a replacement solution for tampons and other sanitary towels.

Non-invasive, comfortable and even pretty, menstrual panties have become the ally of many women. While many brands choose to launch into the sale of this type of protection, we manage to stand out thanks to a few specificities. In particular, we use quality materials to guarantee comfort and efficiency, whatever your daily life. We also offer sizes for all body types and designs for all tastes. From men's underwear to those decorated with lace, you will definitely find the one you need.

MENSTRUAL PANTIES WHEN YOU CAN'T SUPPORT OTHER PROTECTIONS

Many women cannot stand tampons and sanitary towels. Irritations can be the cause of this reluctance to use traditional protection. In addition, some of them have to rely on protection sold in pharmacies. Often very expensive, they are very rarely reimbursed by mutual insurance companies.

Reusable menstrual panties are an ecological and economical solution for people suffering from this type of disorder. It will be possible to opt for this solution which is similar to traditional underwear. You will benefit from optimal absorption for a duration of twelve hours.

CAUSES OF IRRITATION WITH MENSTRUAL PANTIES

Cleaning menstrual underwear

If you notice irritation when using menstrual panties, it may be due to a maintenance problem. As a reminder, menstrual panties should be rinsed to remove any excess blood after use. Then simply wash them by hand or in the washing machine with the most natural detergent possible. This will allow the underwear to retain its absorbency. Furthermore, when you wash your underwear with a detergent full of chemicals, you run the risk of reacting to them.

We also advise you to carefully follow the instructions for use. Period panties should not be kept for more than twelve hours. They must be washed thoroughly after each use.

Choosing your period panty size

The size of the period panties can also be the cause of many cases of irritation in the groin area. Period panties that are too tight can become uncomfortable in this area. If you have any doubts about the size you should choose, do not hesitate to contact our team. Our sizes comply with French standards. If the panties you receive are too small, you will have the option of returning them. They will not be put back on sale, but carefully cleaned and donated to an association, with the aim of combating menstrual insecurity.

Focus on quality materials

When choosing your monthly protection brand, you must pay attention to the materials used. At Mes Culottes, we have chosen materials that respect your body and your privacy. It is important to understand that the inner layer of the fabric is in direct contact with your privacy. It is absolutely essential that the latter is without any risk to your body. In addition, sufficient absorption is necessary to allow you to stay dry and not develop any irritation.

Intimate soaps to protect the mucous membranes

Whether it's your period or ovulation, you may regularly experience irritation. Don't hesitate to question the products you use to ensure your intimate hygiene. Specialists have shown that certain intimate wipes and other soaps that are unsuitable for this part of the body can have dramatic consequences. If your vaginal flora is fragile, or you tend to have sensitive mucous membranes, turn to suitable products.

Other causes of irritation

There are a multitude of other causes of irritation in the intimate parts. If you have recently adopted period panties, it is therefore not necessarily the cause of your problem. Hormonal changes, contraception methods or hygiene products, you must question yourself about other events that could possibly explain the irritation.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF IRRITATION?

Adopt the right actions and the right products

Irritation is a sign that your body is defending itself, or that it is being attacked by the products you are using. It is therefore important to identify the cause of the problem in order to react. For example, using a specific soap with a neutral pH can help reduce the feeling of discomfort, itching or burning. Irritation can also come from not using a quality moisturizing lubricant during sexual intercourse. Finally, certain hair removal methods that are unsuitable for the intimate area could be an explanation. After identifying the causes of the irritation, it is up to you to implement the right actions so that you no longer have to deal with this type of problem.

Consult a healthcare professional

If you are unable to identify the cause of your intimate irritation, consult a healthcare professional without delay. This type of symptom can also be a sign of another gynecological problem, independent of the use of menstrual panties. This type of professional will be able to help you find the right solutions, depending on the problem you are facing.

At Mes Culottes, we design our products with respect for a certain ethic. We do everything we can to ensure that our customers never have to encounter irritation problems. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about our products.
