Your Questions, Answered

How do they work?

Scarlet Period Underwear is designed to fit like normal underwear and features multi-layered leak-proof technology that wicks away moisture, absorbs fluid, and contains it to keep you dry and protected. 

The built-in leak-proof technology is harder working than disposable pads which means it can safely hold more liquid and last for years not hours. Loved by all; you can read some reviews.

Do I need to wear a cup, tampon, or pad too?

Depending on the absorbency level you choose and the heaviness of your flow, you can wear our period panties on their own or as backup protection along with a Period Cup or tampon.

What does the absorbency level mean?

Super Light: Holds up to 1 teaspoon, which is equal to less than one regular tampon. Think of it as a new-age panty liner, so it’s great for spotting, light leaks and discharge. Try: Invisible Thong

Light: Holds up to 3 teaspoons, which is equal to 2 regular tampons or one pad. This is for light days to save you from pesky drips, discharge, and lighter flows. Try: G-String or Bikini Brief in Light-Moderate

Moderate: Holds up to 5 teaspoons, which is equal to 3 regular tampons or 2 pads. Go for this on moderate days or as extra defence on heavy days with our Period Cup. Try: High-Waisted Brief or Bikini Brief in Moderate-Heavy

Heavy: Holds up to 7 teaspoons, which is equal to 4 regular tampons or 3 pads. Our heavy hitters are great to wear on their own, day or night. Try: Boyshort or Period Cup

How do I wash them?

After use, rinse them in cold water (we recommend in the shower) until they run clear. Then, machine wash in cold water with mild detergent (no bleach!). Try our Laundry Bag to safeguard them on laundry day. Then just hang out to dry (the sunnier the better) or tumble dry on low - that’s it!

TIP: If it’s your first wear, pop them in the washing machine with your next cold cycle - washing them before wearing activates their absorbency even more.

What is your 30-day risk-free trial?

We offer a 30-Day Risk-Free Trial for first-time shoppers for one pair of underwear. If you’re unsatisfied or have sizing concerns, email us at support@scarletperiod.com.

How do I pick the right size for me?

We get it, sizing for bottoms is anything but standardised. Which is why this size guide will help break it down for you. Make sure to check both our numeric and letter sizing so no confusion (ie. our large is a 12).

When in doubt, feedback tells us better to size up. Still confused? You can also email us for help at support@scarletperiod.com.

Why buy a bundle?

Save money and stay prepared! With your period lasting between 3-8 days, a multipack ensures you have enough pairs to manage your cycle comfortably. Check out some of our best-selling sets.

Great G-String but not the perfect fit for me

The absorbency itself is wonderful and the G-String is so well made with high quality material and elastic, but the cut feels quite low-rise to me, and I can't size up to test that out because they only go to a 16 unfortunately. It's still a great pair of underwear, but it's not the best fit for me personally.

Perfect for Workouts

I wear these during my workouts, and they're fantastic. They're also good for soaking sweat

Great underwear

Thought it’d feel too minimal, but it handled a light flow day like a boss. Heavy days I add a tampon. Done!

When in doubt, wear the G!

You know those days when your boobs hurt, your skin’s breaking out, and you know it’s coming? I wear this then. Just in case.
