After giving birth, the body undergoes a massive transition. One of the first challenges many new moms face is managing postpartum bleeding (lochia) which can last anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks.
During this time, comfort, hygiene, and reliability are key. That’s where period panties come in as a modern solution to manage postpartum care in a safe, eco-friendly, and comfortable way.
✅ What Is Postpartum Bleeding (Lochia)?
Postpartum bleeding isn’t like a regular period. It includes:
- Bright red blood (first few days after delivery)
- Pinkish discharge (after the first week)
- Brownish or yellowish discharge (towards the end of the postpartum period)
The flow is heavier initially and gradually reduces. Managing this heavy, unpredictable flow can be tricky.
✅ Why Traditional Sanitary Products Aren’t Always Enough
- Large Pads Are Bulky: Postpartum pads are huge and uncomfortable for long-term wear.
- Risk of Infection: Disposable pads with synthetic chemicals can irritate sensitive postpartum skin.
- Costly in the Long Run: Frequent pad changes during heavy flow can be expensive over several weeks.
✅ How Period Panties Help with Postpartum Care
1. Super Absorbent Protection
Period panties like Revaa’s Postpartum Collection are designed to hold more liquid than regular period panties—up to 2–4 tampons’ worth of flow.
2. Comfortable & Breathable
Postpartum skin is extra sensitive. Period panties are made from soft, breathable fabrics that minimize irritation, unlike bulky pads.
3. Leakproof Design
Multiple absorbent layers and a leak-proof lining give confidence during unpredictable postpartum discharge—whether sitting, standing, or moving around.
4. Eco-Friendly & Cost-Effective
Reusable period panties cut down on waste and reduce ongoing expenses. A single pair, cared for properly, can last years.
5. Convenient for New Moms
No more frequent trips to the store for pads. Just wash and reuse! Plus, they fit like regular underwear, making dressing easier after delivery.
✅ Expert Tip: Pair With Proper Care
- Rinse in cold water right after use.
- Avoid fabric softeners.
- Air dry only (never use a dryer).
