What is period underwear made of?

Period underwear is typically made from soft, breathable fabrics such as bamboo viscose and cotton-rich blends, combined with a moisture-wicking layer, an absorbent core, and a thin leak-proof barrier. Good products are PFAS-free.

The outer fabric feels like everyday underwear, while the hidden technical layers do the work of keeping you dry and leak-free. Breathable, body-safe materials are especially important for comfort and sensitive skin.
