Frequently Asked Questions
Usage
Wearing your WOOMFLO is just like putting on any other underwear. Simply step into the panty and pull it up. With its magical gusset (pad) already built-in, your WOOMFLO period panty provides all the protection you need throughout your cycle. Whether your flow is light or heavy, it can handle it all without the need for pads or tampons as backup.
Woomflo currently offers panties in two different absorbencies. The one with the two crescent moons marking for medium to heavy flow and the one with three crescent moons marking for heavy to super heavy flow.
We suggest you use the one with the three-crescent moon (heavy to super heavy) for nights and heavy flow days.
To prevent leaks, ensure your menstrual panties fit properly and are suited to your flow. The panty should be snug against your body, with the gusset in full contact with your vulva. Change your panty when you start feeling damp, and choose the right absorbency for your needs. If you’re new to menstrual panties, try wearing them at home first to get comfortable. You can also start off wearing WOOMFLO menstrual panties on the lighter flow days to develop confidence.

It's completely fine if you can’t wash your menstrual panties immediately. If you're at work, changing late at night, or simply don't have time, you can set the panty aside (for a few hours)until you're able to wash it. When you're ready to clean it, we recommend soaking it in cold water for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly to help remove any residual fluids. This helps keep the fabric in good condition and ensures a proper clean.
We ensure that all materials used in crafting WOOMFLO menstrual panties are toxic free. Our WOOMFLO panties consist of three carefully chosen fabrics known for their effectiveness: a cotton layer next to the skin, followed by an absorbent layer and a waterproof membrane to prevent leaks. Guaranteed to be genuinely (truly) comfortable.

We recommend giving your panty a good rinse in cold, running water.

Once the blood is washed out, your undies won't stain or discolor any other items in the machine. So, feel free to toss them in with your regular laundry without any worries.
Strong odors often arise when blood interacts with synthetic materials like plastic. It's the chemical reaction between our blood and the components in sanitary pads or tampons that can lead to those potent scents you might notice.
But here's the good news: You shouldn't think of your menstrual blood as something smelly or embarrassing! When blood meets natural fibers like cotton, the smell is much milder and more neutral.
You can wear your WOOMFLO for 6 or 8 hours to almost 10 hours without any issues, depending on your flow.

It's quite straightforward! The absorbent part of your WOOMFLO consists of three carefully chosen technical fabrics designed to efficiently drain, absorb, and retain your menstrual blood. 😊

Step 2: The absorbent layer will capture your blood to stay dry and fresh.
Step 3: The waterproof membrane securely holds your blood, ensuring leak protection.
After use, simply rinse, wash, and air dry your panty, and it's ready to be worn again. Easy as ABC.

Your WOOMFLO can accompany you for between 2 and 3 years! Certainly more but it’s too early to promise it you. The key to making your WOOMFLO last as long as possible is to take good care of them - with love and a soft laundry detergent - and not to damage their technical fabrics with overly aggressive drying methods. (Check the washing instructions for more details).
Wash and Care
Yes, it's always a good idea because our undies go through a lot during the manufacturing process and packaging in our cotton potli bags.
We recommend washing your WOOMFLO panties at least twice (minimum once) before the first wear. This helps activate the technology in the lining for maximum absorbency.
It's quite simple: there are 4 golden rules to follow to take good care of your WOOMFLO menstrual panty.
Step 1 Wash your WOOMFLO 2 times (minimum 1) before the first wear. This will activate the technology in the lining for maximum absorbency.
Step 2 After used: Rinse it with cold water or soak it for a maximum of 30 minutes for heavier flows.
Step 3 Machine wash at 30°C (now or later) without fabric softener, conditioner, or stain remover (you can wash your panties with your other dark clothes); or hand wash without greasy soap. Ideally, we recommend using detergents for delicate or baby clothes such as soap nuts.
Step 4 Air dry in the shade = Do not dry your Menstrual undies in a dryer, neither directly under the sun as heat can damage the technical fabrics of your menstrual panties! During monsoon, you can dry it inside under a fan.
Reuse. Repeat. Easy done.
In case you cannot wash your panty immediately after use, you can set it aside for a few hours (only-not days!). Whenever you choose to wash your panty remember to soak it in cold water for a few minutes before you rinse off the blood and follow the above- mentioned steps.
The easiest way to decide is to opt for the least oily soaps and detergents. This means avoiding glycerin and soda-based soaps, as well as oily soaps that can clog the pores of the technical part, leading to reduced absorbency in the panty.
Also, ensure you refrain from using fabric softeners, conditioners, or stain removers during machine washes, as these can harm the technical fabrics. Ideally, consider using soap nuts or a detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics or baby clothes.
