Talk to me about reusable sanitary products...

Just that really.

I'm in the midst of the horrendous first 2 days of my period again when I have to use two towels lengthwise to stop leaking and have just seen a TikTok video about a company who make different sizes of reusable sanitary towels. I've flirted with the idea before, but not seriously but I'm now thinking that it might be time to change over.

Any tips? How to clean them? How many will I need? Any recommendations on brand?

I'm fairly regular, period every 28-30 days, on for 5 days, first 2 days are awful though and I'm not the smallest person so a longer/bigger towel seems like a great idea.

Any help will be appreciated x

Side topic but have you tried Ibuprofen? Apparently it reduces flow. There was a thread about it with lots of people saying they couldn't believe they never knew. I just tried it on my heaviest days and it definitely made it lighter.
