TitleI have 4 pairs of period undies, all different brands, and all bought from woolies when they were on sale. The bonds are the best pair I have, the others are made from true synthetic material and I find I get sweaty. Like the part that goes around the waist, is just plastic. The bonds are the most comfy, and they hold quite a lot. I chuck them (any pair of my undies) in the washing machine on a short rinse cycle, and then throw in detergent for a longer proper wash and it does the job.

I have never tried a menstrual cup, I've wanted to but I don't know if I trust them lol. I've heard good things, but I'm scared of a leak haha

Otherwise, it's tampons and pads, although last time I fell asleep with a tampon in and felt very not good the next morning until I took it out ๐Ÿ‘€
