BambodyAbsorbent Panties, Period Underwear for Women and Teens - Leakproof, Soft, Breathable, Comfortable

Bought this on a lightning deal after seeing lots of good reviews on the brand and so glad I did!! I will be comparing this to my Modibodi Classic Bikini. For my testing, I wore Bambody without my Lena period cup.Sizing & Fit -- I was hesitant to buy this at first bcus I was weary of the sizing chart. According to the chart I'm a size 8 which tracks with my usual size 16/XL but ultimately went with a 9. Some of the reviews pointed out that the leg holes feel tight and sizing feels a bit small but either way I'm glad I sized up bcus my heaviest days was were I was bloated the most. The extra room allowed me to roam comfortably. I also really loved that this underwear went over my pooch even though they have another high-waisted underwear. Modibodi fit right on the get go but it certainly feels a bit tight on my bloating days. Hard to say who wins here, sizing is always tricky for companies to get right.Capacity: Both my Modibodi and Bambody overnight underwears boast a 4 tampon capacity but .... I think they hold a lot more. I wore both for about a day and a half and they held so much blood, it took me 10 full min to rinse out the blood by hand until the water ran clear-ish. Bambody only leaked due to user error. I had sat weird which dislodged the padding area but it was minor. On the other days I wore it, it never leaked. I'd say both win here.Material - Love love Bambody's construction of their underwear. It feels very thin and soft like a regular underwear. Hardly noticable with jeans or a skirt. Modibodi feels a bit thicker and it's does feel more diaper-ish around the padding areas. Both have front to back padding yet I would say Bambody wins for making theirs feel more discreet.Other notes: Bambody had a fraying edge out of nowhere during my first use. I'll be keeping an eye on it and update this review if it falls apart. Furthermore, I'm dismayed that my bodily functions bleached the gusset while in use. Not a fault of the company, it just means you have a healthy vagina.Pricing -You honestly can't beat Bambody's pricing, original or lightning deal. It's worth it at both price points. Modibodi is an Aussie brand which is why theyre more expensive. For them, you'd definitely have to wait for a deal to come along. Bambody does win in this category!Regardless of my review, I am impressed and love both companies for making great period underwears. It makes me happy to have cut out wasteful pads in my life and to strive to be eco-friendly! I'll be trying out Goat Union in the future and see how it compares to these two. 😉

I absolutely love this product. It was my first time trying period underwear. I was a little skeptical at first not knowing how it would feel but by far these are the best so far. Super comfortable and not a pain to get on. Relaxing fit for heavier size. Easy to breathe and coverage is decent. It feels so comfy when wearing them so much better than using pads or tampons. Easy to use and washable.

I was interested in this product because of sustainability, PFAS concern, and long term money savings. I do not enjoy reusable pads (they move around too much), nor the cup. I really like these underwear. They absorb and keep me dry. However, the previous statement applies only if I wear them for a lesser amount of time than their suggested use. That being said, I do not leave the house without an extra pair with me and some sort of odorless/wet seal bag to discard the used pair (like a reusable pad). Again, this is ok for me but may not be for you.I’m usually a small. The small size fits, however, it doesn’t have much stretch due to the internal absorbent lining. And so, I prefer the medium. It feels slightly loose on the bum area but it’s much more comfortable and just as effective.I would like to add that it is quite frustrating that companies think selling packages of 3-5 pair is sufficient for 1 bleed. Especially because it is advised not to put the underwear in the dryer. I have 6 pair and they only lasted me a day and a half. Hoping that the pair that I washed will be dry by tomorrow. If not, I have to buy a box of pads. Which makes me very sad to think about.I think the overpricing and deflation of period products needs to end. Why does it need to be so expensive? #EndThePinkTax

Just wore/used these for the first time. I sized up just incase and I handwashed them beforehand so they'd be ready when I needed them. They looked big and I was afraid I ordered the wrong size, but they just have a different look than regular panties. The fit ended up being good. Comfortable but snug enough not to allow gaps at the inner leg area. I'm wore them for about 16 hours now with zero leaks during a heavier part of my cycle...zero leaks...full absorbancy. They kind of let you know that it's time to take them off because the top layer of the crotch will be moist.I didn't have intense expectations since this pair was considerably cheaper than the more recognized brands of period underwear on the market right now. But these really performed in every way I'd hope for them to and then some! What a fabulous buy. I don't know how long they'll hold up compared to my expensive pairs, but I'll keep hand washing and line drying them to extend their life, and find out! Would definitely recommend and I'd say not to be afraid to size up!

I got this for my wife on request so I’m leaving the review to her.Pros: The material is soft, thick and durable. They work well enough for my medium days. I really do like them because I can wear them at work and I don’t have to worry about forgetting my supplies.Cons: They’re like granny panty style though so the top can be seen over my pants. I’m 5’1” and around 145ish and I got a size 7. They fit but the waistline feels a bit loose still even as the rest of it conforms so I constantly feel like they might fall down but not at the same time. 😖 I honestly thought that my order would come with more than ONE panty in it but NOPE! I bought a couple other packs from different brands that have the same kind of construction for my teen kiddo, and they had at least 3 in the pack. So for almost $40 I thought I’d get more than one. So between it air drying after I hand wash it I’ve got to use pads. 😑 if you don’t mind paying almost $40 for a single pair of panties go for it. But for me? I won’t buy more from here because I can get more pairs for less or equal the amount with the same quality. And in this economy we all gotta be on the lookout for what will give us more bang for our buck.

I have period panties from two other brands, and this one surprised me the most. The absorbent part is huge! They really took the leakproof seriously. I'm def going to buy more.

Es un excelente producto, cómodo resistente, hay que cuidarlo al lavar. Lástima que solo se ofrece por medio de este tipo de compra muy pocas veces al año.

Great to wear

Ich nutze die Unterwäsche sehr gerne und war anfangs mega begeistert. Seit einem Jahr mein monatlicher Begleiter. Die Qualität ist gut und die Passform wie erwartet. Leider war die Saugkraft schon mal besser. Ich würde sie trotzdem empfehlen und wieder kaufen. Für die heißen Tage sind sie für mich nix. Man schwitzt so sehr darin, aber das ist ja logisch. Im grossen und ganzen tolle Teile 😊

The absorbent part goes higher in the back than Knix do- which is better for actual coverage. Not as soft or comfortable as Knix- but for the price an excellent alternative. For those saying you need back up protection for overnights- yea that is true of every pair of absorbent undies I have ever purchased. On your heaviest two nights you will for sure need a backup pad- but you will sleep through the night and wake up with clean sheets. That’s the win we are looking for here. Beware of unrealistic expectations in other reviews.
