Cotton reusable pads

Hello, since heading towards peri menopause my periods have gotten lighter but much much longer causing irritation and soreness from wearing pads everyday.

I'm currently only day two of lightly bleeding again and I'm already irritated I'm using some tea tree intimate products to help because I seem to end up with thrush other wise. I currently have reusable pads but the bamboo fleece ones I think this is adding to the issue so I'm after some cotton ones???

Does Anyone have any suggestions of brands please or alternative menstrual products? I was using a menstrual cup but after my last pregnancy 2 years ago I now find them uncomfortable to wear.

Thanks 😊

Have you considered period pants? You can get them in heaps of places now but I've heard that Modibodi ones are excellent.
