Period pants

I’ve not had a period for years, but due to a less than straightforward birth I do need to wear pads daily.

Would these work as well for the ‘tena’ problem?

For small amounts, they work well. (i have chronic bronchitis with really string coughing fits ....)

Which brand do you use? Every month I look at the Modibdi website but I can't work out the sizing ...

What I don’t understand is Modibodi Say they hold two tampons worth, but I change my tampon/pad as needed, so using these pants I’d have to change my pants three times a day!
My daughter wears pants that have a plastic inner lining that help with leaks from pads/tampons (they are not meant to be worn alone).
Urine is different though - you wee a lot more fluid than you loose in a period so not sure these kind of pants would help except for small leaks only.

ModiBodi pants are brilliant. My daughter uses them for her periods and never has any issues. I use them for my dodgy bladder and find them to be a godsend.

Do you mean incontinence? I would tide periods pants for that, they do specific pants.
