Q: Do you still need to wear a pad with these?
submitted by JHicks - 7 months ago
A: The Hanes Women’s 3pk Comfort Period Boyshort Underwear (Moderate Leaks) are designed with built-in absorbent protection to help manage moderate leaks. For most people, they can be worn on their own without a pad. However, if you experience a heavier flow or prefer extra protection, you may choose to wear them with a pad or backup product for added confidence.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are such a comfortable fit. I love that the fabric is soft and size is the same as mentioned. The feel is soft and doesn’t scratch the skin. The edges fit perfect and it has extra padding in the middle for absorbency. These are perfect to wear on periods days for light absorption. I have worn Hanes for years and they have always good quality product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are so soft! They work great and they hoold their shape. They have good coverage and they absorb well! They are true to size and they fit well.

Would recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hanes Comfort Period underwear is an incredibly convenient choice for managing both my menstrual cycle and occasional bladder leaks. These panties are exceptionally comfortable to wear; the waistband is soft and pleasant against the skin, the leg openings do not bind too tightly against the thighs, and the fabric feels smooth, never bulky or irritating. They ensure a clean and fresh feel thanks to a special internal lining that effectively absorbs and locks away moisture, while the Stain Block Liner, provides reliable leak protection. The moisture wicking fabric keeps you feeling dry and comfortable, and the Odor Guard offers excellent odor control. Great quality.

Odd smell unused
They work well for coverage but right out of the package I noticed they smell awful. Still do even after washing them and not using them.

not for heavy flow or sleep
the problem with these is that the gusset is too small compared to other period underwear brands; it doesn't extend far enough either in the front or the back. for, this means that they're not good to sleep in, and they're not absorbent enough for heavy days. I'll still use them on lighter days, but they're not as useful as I had hoped. they fit as expected, and they don't seem very durable, considering one had a snag right out of the box.

This are horribly designed. They do not go up high enough so there’s always leakage in the front.

Instantly leaked.
At best these are good for your lightest days or backup for full tampons when you can't get to a bathroom. Had mine in for less than an hour and they held very little in. Wouldn't sleep in these as the back absorbing area ends short.

I've bought two packs, definitely recommend
For context, my period isn't extremely heavy so I can't vouch for them in that situation. However these are so much more comfortable than some other period underwear I've tried. They're less thick where you don't need the protection so they're so much better in the summer, and the cut works really well for me (they come up a little below my belly button). I've never had any leaks or even any near-leaks wearing these, and I regularly wear them all night or during the day. They're also a lot cheaper than a lot of the specialty period underwear like thinx or saalt.

Not happy with thin waistband
The leak-proof coverage area is great and the fabric is great. The waistband is a thin strip of elastic sewn in, and I wish it were wider and more comfortable and laid flat on my skin.

I love period underwear, but HATED these
Would give zero stars if that was an option. Like wearing a diaper, super uncomfortable and the absorbent pad isn’t large enough. Go with RevolCares (most comfortable but a little expensive), Jockey (must be worn with a cup or tampon) or even Saalt if you don’t have any other options.

Great period panties for moderate flows
I used to have 3 other pairs of these kind of underwear from another brand. But these are not just very absorbent on moderate nights they also don't trap odor.

Uncomfortable & Disappointed; Not for Sensory Issues
I was hopeful for these after trying other brands for menstrual underwear; I loved my Unders by Proof brand period (seamless) underwear (stretchy and comfy, easy to wash/dry) and I like the Thinx (thicker and cotton; has seems but comfy) for my heavy days (but they're more expensive (and comfortable)). After trying these Hanes (absorbent) underwear for my backup period underwear, I immediately had to take them off from discomfort. The seams are scratchy and irritating for the skin (around the top opening and leg holes), and this is especially not conducive with moisture (causes more irritation). I tend to have sensory issues with tags and stitching (which I can often try to ignore), but the discomfort from these Hanes period briefs is just too irritating to ignore. I've attempted over the last several months to "break them in", but I personally can't tolerate the irritation from these. If you have sensory issues and/or want less visible underwear lines, then try Unders by Proof period underwear. If you need more absorbency/protection, try the heavier flow Thinx.
