However, we’re not here to shame you for your choices – applicators are very helpful in securing the tampon inside your vagina, which is especially useful if you've never tried tampons before. So whether you choose to go with or without, we’re here for you!💕 A lot less than you might think! "While it may look like a lot of blood, girls normally only lose a couple of tablespoons throughout the duration of the period," explains Dr Ameen. "A person’s first few periods are often very light and can vary in colour from pink or red to brown," says Sarah. We are also now providing environmentally friendly period pants and reusable period pads as part of the scheme too.

Can you wear period pants all day and how often should you change them?

But period pants are not solely for your period as they can also be worn by those postpartum, or those suffering with incontinence. The most important thing is not to get stressed or anxious," says Dr Ameen. "If you feel comfortable, talk to someone you trust like a parent, teacher or maybe a friend who has already started their periods. It’s a completely natural process." A big no-no is adding fabric softener though, as this can interfere with the pants' absorbency levels. Can't wear for long periods of time (13%) 'I just find I can't wear them for long periods of time which is quite a faff.' Period pants come in an increasingly broad range of shapes and sizes, including an ever-expanding range of colours.

Progesterone and oestrogen cause a build-up of a lining in the womb to prepare for a fertilised egg to attach and start developing. Ovulation occurs when one of the ovaries releases an egg. Period pants are a sustainable and fuss-free alternative to sanitary towels and tampons when your time of the month hits.Here we provide information on the scheme and how your schools and colleges can get involved. What is the Period Products Scheme? Also, as your period progresses, the absorbency you require will change. Where you may need maximum absorbency on the first day, the final few days may require much lighter protection.

Period pants not only come in different sizes, and we don't just mean dress sizes, but also with different absorbances for light to heavy flows. When starting to design period underwear, Ruby Raut, CEO and co-founder of WUKA, envisaged what a teen would need in school. So, she asked Cath what the ideal first period kit for teens would look like: Our trusty panel of testers set aside their usual running attire and tried a selection of period-proof shorts and leggings during their time of the month.

SHOP: The Best Period Pants And Underwear

PMS – premenstrual syndrome – is the term used to describe the emotional and physical symptoms that happen before or during the period. The NHS advises that symptoms can include: These first came onto the market in the 1920s, yet didn't really take off in the same way that disposable pads and tampons did. They've had a resurgence in recent years and there are now lots of options available, including brands such as Organicup and Saalt. Saalt even commits 2% of its revenue to donate period care to poorer regions and help fund initiatives in menstrual health, education and sustainability. Many of us are making the switch to period pants and it’s hardly surprising. They’re comfy, convenient, kinder to the planet and will save you pennies in the long run – what's not to love?

Not sure period pants are for you? See our full guide to eco menstrual products for alternative options including menstrual cups, washable pads and reusable tampon applicators From pads to tampons and period pants, here are eight of our go-tos for a first period kit or starter kit to help you or a loved one feel more period confident.These are used in the same way as non-organic but rather than being composed of plastic, both the absorbent body and the string are made out of organic cotton or natural bamboo, which can be composted. They can come with or without a cardboard applicator. Those without applicators are wrapped in a widely recyclable BPA-free plastic; a legal requirement for women's health.
