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.
Real reviews from real AWWA users
- SCSarah C.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars2 months agoReviewingHeavy Hipster BriefComfy & absorbant
Another comfy set from Awwa. My main challenge with all of the high-absorbancy styles across different brand is the short gusset at the front. My spine has a strong s-curve so I need the absorbant piece to be longer at the front to catch my flow properly when I'm moving around. At the moment I am ordering a size up and adjust the fit to be higher at the front but it's an imperfect solution. The tencel brief has this perfectly worked out, but the absorbancy isn't enough in that one for heavy days.

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.

And yet to try them out. They appear quite bulky so hopefully they'll hold up.
