THINX Thong Period Underwear for Women, FSA HSA Approved Feminine Care, Menstrual Underwear Holds 1 Tampon

These just came in the mail today and I am so excited because I can put them into use right now. I travel a lot and have monthly periods and a few years ago I had a notably awful experience on a plane. When I saw advertisements for these on pinterest, I was extremely intrigued. I am lucky because my periods are not so heavy or long, I can sleep through the night with one super tampon in on my heaviest night. I will compare the 3 kinds I got in terms of fit, the hiphugger, boyshort, and thong. I got them all in different sizes and like them. I am 5'4" 130 lbs narrow hips, big thighs, small butt, mostly small tummy but since my hips are narrow it doesn't really look that small. I"m 37-28.5-37.Boyshort size large: fit but tight. They look really large but they are not on you. I think for this style I would say they fit, they are not too tight at all but since I do not like tight clothing. I don't love them but they are good for what they are. I knew what I was ordering when I ordered them. I ordered them because I felt this style would be the most secure for sleeping in. Let's hope I can manage the tight feeling, I can't sleep in leggings like other people can. I think they are kind of cute but lol uhhgh I would probably wear something over them because lol I can only imagine my husband thinking I am sleeping in my gross period underwear that looks like men's underwear. Oh yeah, the fit more like bike shorts or men's underwear than like a cute boyshort but that's ok, they won't up your butt either.Hiphuggers size medium. when I pulled these out I thought they looked huge but they fit and are really comfortable. I have been wanting bigger underwear than I have lately so I think these are the perfect size. I believe I went one size up from the chart but if you like tighter underwear that would probably be unnecessary.Both the hiphuggers and boyshorts are very heavy underwear, like underwear of lead. Ok not lead but they have a weight to them.Thong: of the 3 these were the most like regular underwear. The other two styles are quite heavy, this one just seems like regular underwear with a hard body. I got these according to the size chart because my butt is small and for me there is nothing worse than a really big thong. Fit like a thong.I considered buying the tights because I hike a lot but I read it feels weird on your butt and I thought for $100 I'd be happier buying regular tights for $30 and just wearing the underwear with them.

It truly does hold the same amount as 1 tampon. I haven’t experienced any leakage if I stay within the advised amount that it can hold. On heavy days, I normally have to change a regular tampon every 2 hours so on those days I use the Thinx thong as a back up layer. It’s been a life-saver especially at conferences or long workdays.And they’re more comfortable than most of my regular thongs.

The fit is excellent. They are very attractive on and you would never know they are “specialty” underwear. I purchased them to wear while exercising at the gym for a new issue with light urine leakage during strength training… they totally solved the problem and I no longer have to be embarrassed that the light leakage shows. I purchased black and am buying additional colors!

These are so comfy and honestly don’t even look like period underwear. There’s none of the wearing a diaper feeling and no worries about leaking period blood either. You can’t really feel any moisture and they don’t get smelly orgross. It’s so nice to wear leggings and still have some backup coverage in case mytampon isn’t enough. Also really nice for spotting and days where you want to be prepared in case your period starts. I’ve been putting them in the washer and they’re holding up nicely.

Comfortable and discreet. Seem to run a little large so not so sure how well they‘ll hold any liquid. Had some loose threads on the waistband, which is disappointing for the price though does not seem to affect the stability of the waistband.

I am 55, 3 babies and I have urinary urge incontinence..when I have to go I have to go now and sometimes I don't make it and I 'leak". I had been wearing panty liners to avoid damp undies and pants with my accidents, this sometimes helped but was uncomfortable. I don't have periods anymore and I don't want to wear liners...or adult diapers!These panties are not cheap, but they are life changing! I don't wear them every day but when I am going for long car rides, golfing, shopping, etc. I wear them - basically when I'm not sure where the next bathroom will be. It's nice not to constantly worry about accidents. I have the thong style and the brief style. I prefer the thongs. So comfy and they don't feel "heavy" like a pad or liner does. They machine wash and dry well . Highly recommend!

I really liked these but for the price, you can get a 3 pack from an off brand that are very similar to these. I did like these a little bit better than the cheaper ones but given the price difference, I don’t think I would purchase these again.

12 years ago I tried Thinx and I was not impressed. They leaked (my periods were not at all heavy. A medium pad would last me a whole day!) and fell apart easily. I figured enough time had passed and maybe they had improved the quality of their product, so I bought them again. I was wrong. They came falling apart. I literally just tried them on for the first time and they are coming undone at the seam. So disappointing. There are other period panties out there that are better quality. Don't waste your money on Thinx.P. S. I wear a small in my other panties and the small in Thinx is snug. If you decide to buy them, you may want to buy 1 size up, unless you like your panties snug.
