Ideally, you shouldn't leave a tampon in for longer than eight hours, as that increases the risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome TSS. Maternity pads are extra thick, perfect for new mums. Some products even add Aloe-Vera for soothing.
During our research, we noticed that there are varying levels of thickness among liners. Some products are wafer thin, providing very little to nothing in terms of absorbency.
These types of liners will do the job if you're just looking for everyday freshness, but we haven't tested them as they aren't comparable to the rest. You're likely to use a mixture of liners, regular and super and maybe night pads throughout the different stages of your period.
Once you're familiar with your period and its different stages, you'll know when to use certain products for the best protection. Period underwear are a relatively new addition to the market but offer an alternative for environmentally concious consumers.
They have a moisture-wicking layer over an absorbent layer in the gusset, protected by a leak-resistant layer, and most importantly are washable and re-useable and some claim to be re-useable for a couple of years.
We've previously trialled period underwear as well as menstrual cups and have recently included period underwear from Modibodi in our comparative testing to see how they stack up against pads. Check our review for the results. Considering you'll generally get your period every month for around 40 years, this cost definitely adds up. So looking for value for money as well as a good performing product is important.
Along with using the words liners, regular, super, etc to describe the pad, some manufacturers also use images of 'droplets' on their packaging to describe their absorbency rate.
And it also has anti-bacterial properties. So the pads have wings — which wrap around the gusset of the panties and fix together underneath with a soft Velcro fastening. The product comes in three different sizes and thicknesses to cater to different flow levels, too. So the consumer may end up owning a range of reusable LastPads — from a panty liner option to a day flow and heavier-duty night pads. A lot of the other [LastObject products] were very much about printing it, looking at it.
Using it of course — but it took us long before we had it in actually a silicone form. Because that is also expensive. Getting it out to a lot of different women that wear different panties that have different cycles. Which is obviously a lot more expensive than the per unit cost of disposable towels.
But LastObject says it will offer packs so if a consumer buys more pads it should shrink the per pad cost a little. But the target user is evidently someone with enough disposable income to be able to pay a premium for an eco alternative.
While, with period pants, she says the issue she finds unpleasant is the feeling of wetness when wearing them. LastObject will be publishing a third-party LCA lifecycle assessment for LastPad to back up its eco claims for the reusable product — comparing it to using disposable sanitary pads. But Aagaard is confident it will be substantially better when compared against most disposable alternatives.
