FAQ

How do AWWA period underwear work?

AWWA period-proof underwear look and feel just like your normal underwear, but can absorb menstrual flow and stop leaks, thanks to our innovative fabric technology.

A soft, moisture-wicking organic cotton top layer draws fluid away from your skin and into the super-absorbent core, while the breathable, waterproof barrier prevents leaks. Our anti-microbial technology keeps you fresh and odor-free, all day long.

Are they ethically made?

AWWA underwear is manufactured by a company who provides ethical work conditions and takes environmental sustainability seriously. We spent a lot of time researching how and where our underwear is made. AWWA underwear is made in two factories in Sri Lanka and China. Both our partner factories pay a fair wage and have processes and practices in place to reduce their waste output, and source sustainable fabrics.

How do I wash my AWWA period underwear?

Simply rinse in cold water, then wash on a cold cycle with your normal clothes. Line dry. Don't use fabric softener as it prevents the moisture-wicking and anti-microbial technologies from working.

Migration from the Cotton Brief

I got a couple of heavy hipster briefs. I'm a return customer and I needed to update my underwear, my last order being a couple of the heavy cotton briefs in the beginning of 2020. I loved those ones, I traveled in those and did not have to worry about anything. I needed to replace them though as they started to leak after five years of use ( and they did accidentally end up in the dryer a few times which is not how your supposed to take care of them). So I decided on these ones just to visually differentiate the new from the old and I am quite a fan! The only thing I wish is the gusset in the back went up all the way to the waistband for ultimate coverage. But I can wear one all day and not have to worry about leaks or smells and I feel dry! I'm a pre-k teacher and these undies allow me to keep up with my tiny humans and run and play along with them.
One thing to consider is that these will land right at your waist. The cotton briefs were a little longer than at the top so they covered my lower belly a little bit. If you want that, the pressure sometimes helps with pain, I would suggest the cotton briefs or the high waisted briefs.

Life changing

I know calling AWWA period underwear "life-changing" sounds extreme, it's true. Not using tampons has made my cramps go away and being able to trust that my period blood can flow out without causing any mess is a massive relief. I also love the energetic aspect of being able to bleed as naturally as possible, nothing holding the blood inside longer than it's meant to be.
