These period panties are the best according to 60 Million Consumers

The market for menstrual panties is booming. After toxic-free tampons, reusable cups (or cups) and even washable sanitary napkins, menstruation underwear is changing the rules! Can be worn for up to 12 hours, they allow women to change protection less often, while doing good for the planet: some models have a lifespan of 7 years. Not insignificant advantages, which are gaining ground for “rule panties”, now available in medium and large surfaces after having been confined to the Internet or to specialized stores.

Period underwear disappoints

Only, all menstrual underwear would not be effective, if we are to believe the conclusions of 60 Million Consumers. In a test bench published in its November issue, the magazine deplores performances well below the displayed promises. Limited absorption capacity, drop in performance over washes, side leaks, all the models tested are disappointing. All ? Nope ! One of them stands out, with a score of 14/20.

Intimewear by Nana: the best menstrual panties according to 60 Million Consumers

And it's Intimewear by Nana that is named the most effective menstrual underwear. If its anti-odor properties are not perfect, the panties are distinguished by the thickness of its cushion (5.1mm vs 3mm on average), its high absorption capacity (equivalent to 1 or 2 tampons) and its resistance to aging (which lasts up to 100 washes).

The only model that protects against leaks

But it is especially in terms of side leaks that it sets an example. While the other 7 models all perform poorly, the model developed by Nana is the only one that protects women from crotch leaks. A performance so remarkable that 60 Million Consumers designates these panties as "the only high-performance" which "imposes itself in [the] panel, especially for lack of high-performance competitors".

Panties with silver ions but certified Okeo-Tex

Note that the Intimewear by Nana underwear is also the only one on the test bench to "display the incorporation of silver, copper and zeolite ions in its absorbent pad" but that it is certified by the Okeo-Tex label, guarantee that these components are not present in the fabric in direct contact with the mucous membranes.
