Period thongs?

Anyone tried these? I really like period underwear to help prevent leaks but they all have thick seams that show under clothes and cut in to my thighs a bit. I got the copper coil recently so I’m getting random spotting which is annoying.

I’m wondering if the thongs would work well for light days/spotting/tampon leaking as they fit close to the body, or if there’s not enough fabric for them to actually absorb much 🤔

Including a photo because seamless ones sound really comfy!

My DD has some of these. They were from Shein so possibly not the best quality.

The thong (rear) bit is quite thick, I suppose it has to be for the purpose, and she says they are not the comfiest things to wear. A normal thong is thin enough to, er, go between the cheeks. This isn't.

She would only wear them at the very end of a period, not sure these would cope with too much flow.
