Diving into the world of menstruation is a bit like bungee jumping without a bungee cord: it can be a bit stressful. As the stepmom of a 14-year-old, I figured I needed a solution that was as soft as a panda hug and as green as organic broccoli. After spending hours scouring the internet (and getting lost in cat videos), I decided to give period panties a try. At first, I was as skeptical as a cat to a cucumber, but I was curious to see if any of these online styles could really offer the comfort and convenience we needed.

Why menstrual panties?


The world of menstrual panties has attracted quite a few curious people. Traditional solutions like pads and tampons are a bit like wearing a cactus in your pants: not very comfortable and they sting in terms of waste. According to a recent study, a woman uses approximately 17,000 disposable menstrual products in her lifetime, which is the equivalent of an elephant's worth of waste. So, I decided to look for an alternative that wouldn't make me feel guilty every month.


Menstrual panties are a bit like the superheroes of the underwear drawer: they're washable, reusable, and ninja-style save the planet by reducing our ecological footprint. Plus, they handle periods like pros! With all that said, how could I not want to be eco-friendly for my daughter and me?


The discovery of Neione panties


After exploring the fascinating world of period panties like a true detective, I settled on Neione panties. Their breathable modal fabric is as comfortable as pajamas on a Sunday morning. Plus, their leak-proof design is so reliable, you could almost walk across a river without getting wet (but don't, just in case).


And with an average price of CAD 39.14 for a trio of these wonders, we realized we were saving enough to treat ourselves to chocolates every month, rather than throwing our money away on disposable products.

Family experience


When my daughter and I started using Neione panties, it was a first. My daughter was nervous at first, but she quickly appreciated the feeling of freedom and comfort. She even told me it was definitely more comfortable than pads.


For me, the experience was equally positive. The feeling of comfort was a real surprise. Sometimes a product makes so many promises that it can be disappointing. But here, we found a solution that really works. Initially, I intended to use them in addition to tampons or the Diva Cup , but it turns out that won't be necessary.


Economy and ecology


Buying a set of these panties is like hitting the real estate jackpot: it may seem a little expensive at first, but then, it's pure happiness for your wallet! Imagine, each pair of panties can last up to 5 years if you take care of them. That's a return on investment that would make any banker jealous! By choosing Neione, we're adopting a winning strategy for our budget and for the planet. We're becoming eco-responsible and thrifty, what more could you ask for?


Feeling good knowing we are reducing our impact on the environment is invaluable and has boosted our confidence.
