We get it – Choosing the right period panty, especially when it's a matter of trusting an underwear to give you better absorbency (and value for money) than pads, can feel like a gamble! 🎲
❓“How do I pick the right style?”
❓“Does this one work overnight?”
❓“Should I size down?”
Who better to answer your questions, than someone who’s tackled the same questions you have, and finally found their match? 🤷🏻♀️
Meet Nupur – a Nushu customer who went from being a curious sceptic to a strong Nushu-advocate! 💜
From comfort to absorbency, she’s sharing her journey so you can confidently pick the best style for you.
✨In conversation with Nupur, Pune✨
👉🏼Nushu: What products were you using before Nushu?
Nupur: Initially I was using pads & I would always experience rashes, itchiness & just overall I would be very uncomfortable. Then I switched to the menstrual cup, which wasn’t really comfortable either – insertion was super uncomfortable and it was just too messy.
👉🏼Nushu: What convinced you to try the Nushu period panties?
Nupur: I actually discovered them on an Influencer’s reel & it grabbed my attention. I went through the website & I was really curious to try it out. In fact I was so curious, not only did I convince my mom to buy it for me, I convinced her to buy it for herself too!
At the time I was using a menstrual cup & I really wanted an alternative that wasn’t invasive, but didn’t give me rashes either.
I was a bit unsure on how to pick size, and that was really my only apprehension, but I figured it out.
👉🏼Nushu: So how did you go about finding the right style?
Nupur: I had help from your team in figuring out everything I needed to know, honestly. Some things I needed to know were:
🩸Flow: My flow is not too heavy, except maybe on day 1. So I knew I might not need a super-heavy absorbency style, a heavy one might work.
🩸Style Preference: I was completely okay with a Bikini-style, I didn’t feel like I needed something high-waist.
🩸Size: I spoke to the team to figure out what size I should go for. But I went for the same size I usually wear with all panties.
Taking all these factors into consideration I figured Bikini Brief would be the best fit for me & my mom.
So we tried one each first & then within a month, we ordered more pairs of the same style!
👉🏼Nushu: What was your experience like? And your mom’s?
Nupur: They were so soft and comfortable! I don’t get any rashes or redness. Not once have I leaked through them. No wetness either!
It’s the same for my mom – she is undergoing menopause, so her periods are heavy and erratic, but even she was able to wear it for about 12 hours without leaking!
I’ve already recommended this product to so many friends of mine already - they need to try it out!
🩸Quick tips & questions to ask yourself:🩸
👉🏼How heavy does your flow get?
To determine this, consider how many pads you go through on a given day. Pick your style basis this thumb rule:
> 1-2 pads: Not too heavy/Light (Go for Cheeky Lace)
> 3-4 pads: Heavy-ish (Go for Bikini Brief or Lace Bikini)
> 5 & above: Super Heavy (Go for Hip Hugger or Lace Hipster)
👉🏼Lace or no lace?
Lace styles: Lace Hipster, Lace Bikini & Cheeky Lace
No-lace style: Hip Hugger & Bikini Brief
👉🏼Size?
Generally, go for your regular panty size. Our sizing is similar to popular brands like Jockey and M&S. But, just to be sure - double-check your hip measurements & verify with our size guide.
