Frequently Asked Questions

What is period underwear and how does it work?

Period underwear looks and feels like regular underwear but is designed with multiple absorbent layers to soak up menstrual blood. Depending on the absorbency level, it can be worn alone or as backup to other products.

How many hours can I wear Cherrystain period underwear?

Our underwear can be worn for up to 8–10 hours, depending on your flow and the absorbency level of the style you choose. Always change when you start feeling damp.

Can I wear them without pads or tampons?

Yes! Cherrystain underwear is designed to be worn on its own. Just pick a style that suits your flow—light, moderate or heavy.

How do I wash and care for them?

Rinse your used underwear in cold water until the water runs clear. Then, machine wash (preferably in a laundry bag) on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air dry—do not tumble dry or use fabric softeners.

Will they smell or feel bulky?

Nope! Our underwear has built-in odor control layers and is designed to be slim, breathable, and comfortable—just like your regular underwear.

Can I wear them for spotting or irregular cycles?

Yes. Period underwear is a great option for light days, spotting, or when your cycle is unpredictable. They give you peace of mind without wasting disposable products.
