The origin of period pants by Bodyform®: making sustainable period underwear accessible for all
The birth of our period pants didn’t happen overnight. We started from the understanding that vaginas and vulvas are powerful, wonderful parts of the human body and deserve to be celebrated and cared for. At Bodyform®, we know that feeling comfortable and confident goes hand in hand with feeling ‘fearless’ and that nothing in life should hold you back. But between irregular menstrual cycles, hormones, and pain, it’s inevitable sometimes to feel like your body is out of control and working against you.
At the same time, we were actively looking for ways to reduce our impact on the planet. Being passionate about creating solutions that are good for you and Mother Earth, the idea for reusable, period-proof underwear was born.
A sustainable alternative to disposable period products, our period pants are washable – so you can reuse them again and again!
Period pants by Bodyform® look and feel just like your usual pair of underwear. Available in various styles and sizes and different absorbency levels, they’re designed to fit your curves and adapt to your movements. They work in sync with your body and your flows – whether it’s menstrual blood, spotting, discharge, pee, after-sex fluids, sweat, you name it!
The gusset of all Bodyform® period pants (that’s the bottom of the pants that goes between your legs and rests against your vulva) is designed with TRITECH Performance, giving you protection for up to 12 hours!
Our period underwear has your comfort in mind too. So, whether you decide to wear it at home, school, gym, or work – you can rest assured that there will be no slippage, rubbing, or chafing, so you can take on your day with confidence.
intimawear by Bodyform® period pants are built to work with your body, not against it so that you can live fearlessly – regardless of what’s going on in your pants. At the end of the day, we’re all about celebrating your body and your flows as they are – natural and sometimes messy or unpredictable.
Our taboo-breaking purpose
At Bodyform®, we’re continually striving to make the world better for women+ through taboo-busting communications on all things V-Zones. By using creativity, we are continually working to push boundaries to subvert shame and break down stigmas.
We have also launched activities such as Project V – a change-driving initiative to support women+ through all V-Zone experiences across the world. Part of this is our Global V-Taboo Tracker, an ongoing research where we’re listening to voices and experiences from diverse backgrounds, to better understand V-Zone taboos so that we can break them together.
Our promise to the planet
While championing women+’s well-being is our top priority, we’re also passionate about supporting the well-being of our world. That’s why we’re dedicated to reducing our carbon footprint and the environmental impact we have on the planet by making all of our products more sustainable.
From clots and clumps to our eco goals – we’re open, honest, and transparent about everything we do.
