It transforms your period days from a constant worry into a much calmer time. Just like with heavy or very heavy flow period underwear, using a period boxer eases your mental load!
The boxer-style period underwear stands out with its full-coverage fit that secures your lower belly, hips, and lower back. This extended protection greatly reduces the risk of side leaks, especially useful at night or after childbirth.

The period boxer is a must-have piece of period lingerie. Made from organic cotton and super absorbent, it provides reliable protection for anyone with a fairly heavy flow.
Its wide cut means it offers extended absorbency both front and back. So, the period boxer can easily be worn day or night, with the most absorbent models providing up to 10 hours of protection and peace of mind.
At Louloucup, a French brand specializing in quality menstrual products, discover a selection of beautiful period underwear in a variety of trendy and flattering styles. Some even resemble boyshorts and boxer cuts.
To keep your menstrual boxer as effective and absorbent as the first day, start by rinsing it in cold water until it runs clear. This step removes most of the flow and preserves the absorbent area. Then, machine wash at 30°C with your regular laundry, without fabric softener (which reduces absorption and affects protection). Air dry for best results: tumble drying damages the waterproof membrane and prevents the fabric from staying dry and comfortable during its optimal 3 to 5 years of use.
Absolutely! Menstrual boxers specially designed for heavy to very heavy flows are perfect for overnight menstrual protection. They provide up to 10 hours of uninterrupted protection, making them ideal for nighttime use. Their wider absorbent area in the back ensures optimal comfort in every sleeping position.
For a typical menstrual cycle, 5 menstrual boxers and/or menstrual panties are ideal: this lets you wear a fresh one each day while the others dry after washing. If you have a very heavy flow or want more flexibility, go for 6 to 8 pieces with different absorption levels (from very absorbent to lighter). This adaptable wardrobe suits both teens and adults, ensuring comfort and protection at every phase of your cycle. Remember, menstrual underwear takes longer to dry than regular panties.
The average period lasts about 5 days, with variations from 3 to 8 days. This average can be influenced by factors such as age, type of contraception, or overall health. Having periods within this range is generally a sign of a healthy cycle.
