Pads that slip, tampons that don't fit comfortably during exercise, and stains from leaking through to your bedding. Your period is already annoying enough. Prevent these problems: swap your pads and tampons for period underwear. It's super relaxing before bed, practical for exercising, and eliminates the stress of forgetting to change. Browse our range of washable period underwear and choose your favorite style.
Disposable pads and tampons are a thing of the past. And if you're not a fan of a cup, there's now another sustainable alternative. Choose comfort and convenience with period underwear. You wash them, hang them up, and put them back on. It's that simple. And all without the fear of leaks and the stress of forgetting to change them.
We follow a rule of thumb: on your light to medium days, you can wear your period underwear all day or night without changing your period underwear. Put on a clean pair of period panties in the morning and before bed. If you have a heavy period, choose highly absorbent period panties, change them once more, or use an extra tampon just in case.
Moodies donates 5% of all panties sold to charity. Did you know that in Amsterdam alone, 25% of girls and women sometimes don't have enough money to buy menstrual products? A few Moodies can help that person for a few years. So with your purchase, you're helping someone who really needs it!

frequently asked questions about menstrual underwear
Moodies are underwear that can collect menstrual blood and light urine loss, so you no longer have to use sanitary towels, tampons or other means of collection. You can wear the pants all day or night before having to change if you have an average loss of urine or blood. This is different for everyone, so try it at home on a quiet day to see how this works for you.
Moodies uses technical fabrics in the crotch that absorb and disperse moisture and ensure that you do not leak through. There is a fine sports fabric against your skin that allows moisture to pass through easily and ensures that it feels dry.
These are all breathable fabrics, which have an antibacterial wash, which means that hardly any odor is released and it is very natural and hygienic.
Start by washing the moodies at a maximum of 30 degrees before wearing your moodies. This is really important to activate the absorption in the crotch (compare it with a new towel that does not dry properly even if it has not yet been washed).
And then hang the moodies to dry (never in the dryer).
If this is your first time wearing menstrual underwear, we advise you to wear it when you have a quiet day at home, so that you can get used to it and check whether you have chosen the right absorption.
And if you still find it difficult to switch, just start with moody nights. No more dirty sheets, and no waste!
If you suffer from very heavy menstruation, we advise you to use moodies in combination with, for example, a cup or a tampon. We also advise you to purchase our heavy or heavy-overnight absorption.
We would also like to point out that it is wise to consult a doctor if you have extremely heavy menstruation. This could prevent complications later in life.
Certainly! The first and second layers in the gusset have undergone an antibacterial wash, allowing you to wear moodies hygienically for 8-10 hours. This washing remains active for approximately 75 washes.
If you are bothered by odors, it is best to give the pants a more intensive cleaning. You can read more about this on the How was I moodies page.
