Q: Would these absorb blood clots?
submitted by Megan - 3 months ago
A: Hello Megan! Thank you for your question.
Yes, they do absorb menstrual blood and small clots, similar to a pad or liner.
However, they’re not designed to hold huge clots or extremely heavy flow for long periods on their own. You might need a tampon, cup, or pad in addition if you have very heavy days or large clots.

Q: how helpful for urine leaks
submitted by shirts - 9 months ago
A: Hello! Thank you for your question.
These Hanes “Super Leaks” briefs are quite effective for light to moderate urine leakage. Their layered construction prevents moisture and odors, and many users report positive results. They’re also discreet and comfortable enough for daily wear.
However, if you experience heavier bladder leakage or prefer extended wear without changing, you might consider higher-absorbency alternatives or wearing them as a backup to another leak-control product.

Q: How high up do they go in back of panty
submitted by Houston - 11 months ago
A: Hello! Thank you for your question.
The Hanes Women's 3‑pack Comfort Period Briefs (Super Leaks) feature a classic brief cut, not high-waisted, and offer full coverage in the back—but the absorbent liner doesn’t extend to the top of the waistband.
If you'd prefer period underwear with a liner that goes closer to the waistband for extra protection in the back, Hanes offers boxer-brief or hipster styles with a fuller lining that extends further upward.

The period underwear offers a blend of comfort and absorbency, making them a practical choice for light to moderate flow days. Many guests appreciate the soft fabric and true-to-size fit, while some find them ideal for overnight use.

Overall, they serve as a reliable backup option for those looking to reduce reliance on traditional menstrual products.

Not Absorbent Enough
These fit well at first, but once the underwear gets saturated, they sag and become uncomfortable. The thin waistband isn’t sturdy, and even the brand’s highest absorbency couldn’t handle my light or heavy days. I bled through these and my pants/leggings on multiple occasions, including during Pilates, and ended up staining clothes. I really wanted these to work as a more economical option, but they’re not reliable and not worth the cost.

Absorbent and comfortable to wear overnight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been curious about period underwear and now that I've tried these from Hanes I am so mad I didn't try them sooner! These are definitely not something you want to wear all day, they do have padding so it would be a bit uncomfortable BUT wearing these overnight have been an absolute game changer. No more laying completely still overnight to make sure your pad stays in place. The absorbency seems to be quite good as well, I've experienced no leaks whatsoever. The care instructions are a bit odd, you need to rinse in cold water before tossing into the wash, but whenever I rinse it doesn't seem to do anything. I would recommend washing these after each use, and since these came in a pack of three that's not a problem if one is in the wash, I still have another pair if I need it.

Amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing perfect for those days of the month. I wish I had try them sooner during my postpartum. Amazing quality. Soft and comfortable. True to its size. I normally just washed them in the washer machine and they are good to go. My periods are not very heavy. I only wear them during the night since it’s when I leak sometimes.

Good, but Could be Better
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried Hanes Womens Super Absorbancy Period Briefs. The ones I received are in the colors black and nude. The garment is comfortable with a thick, mult-layer lining. Does it absorb? Yes. But, I think they are a little behind compared to another major brand. The liner only covers a short section. Hanes needs to extend the liner all the way to the back like this other popular brand does for more security and protection. But, like all brands, these feel like I'm putting on a wet bathing suit after I go to the restroom. If they can find a way to design these to make me feel dry, that would put them ahead of the other brands. I will still use these as part of my period care, because I just do not want to waste more money on pads and tampons if I do not have to. These briefs are machine washable and reusable, which I really like.

Comfortable, reusable, and leak-proof underwear th
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been trying out the Hanes Comfort, Period. underwear and I’m honestly really impressed. These are designed with built-in leak protection, a stain-block liner, and odor control—which already makes them feel super reliable right off the bat. The padding is exactly where you need it, so everything feels secure without being bulky or uncomfortable. I don’t have a super heavy flow, but these worked perfectly for me—no leaks at all, which made such a difference in just feeling relaxed and not constantly worrying. I mostly wore them around the house and during workouts, and they were so comfortable. The fabric is soft and breathable, and they stayed in place really well—no shifting or awkward adjusting. They’re also reusable, which I love because it feels like a more low-maintenance and eco-friendly option compared to constantly buying pads or tampons. If you’re someone who wants to ditch tampons or pads, or just prioritize comfort, these are definitely worth trying. For me, it was all about feeling confident, comfortable, and not stressed—and these delivered.

Comfy and reliable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very apprehensive about trying these but I’ve wanted to for so long. These are surprisingly comfortable and very absorbent. I did not have any leaks now the one thing that I will have to get used to is hand washing and cleaning them. I’m happy there are 3 pair in a pack because while one is drying I have 2 other pairs but I have to be on top of laundry for sure. The texture is soft and not scratchy the seat portion is very thick but still comfortable

I see the vision but needs work…
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There is a few things I like about this period underwear and other I don’t. Let’s start with what I like, first the fit weirdly enough it is smaller than my regular size but I like that because I don’t like loose underwear while on my period. I love the colors, neutrals are perfect and I liked using them at night during my 1st day of period when flow wasn’t a lot and at the very end. Here the things I don’t like, they smell and not in a good way, I am not sure why because I washed them, but I believe that because the blood gets absorbed by it then it brings out a strange scent and I don’t like that so I changed every so often. I don’t like that they are high waisted and constantly roll down because I have a belly so if I could change that I would. Plus, I don’t like that if you have very heavy periods then the blood clots sit on top of it because it doesn’t get absorbed and of course it makes you feel wet and sticky. So overall, I would use them only on my light days or if there is any spotting and I would wash them more often that the normal and separate from my regular clothes.

Comfortable, not sweaty, no leakage
First off, they’re true to size, but I preferred to size up. I like looser clothes when on my period (did not give panty lines by doing so either). I got the bikini shape - In my experience, that’s the most comforting style; the amount of material is just right. I tried past period underwear that was all polyester. Made me sweat in that entire area, front and back. I LOVE THESE UPDATED ALL COTTON ONES!!!!! I can and do wear them all day. I personally wear 1 pair for the day, even on first day of period. Very very verrrrrry comfortable. I’ve gotten them for friends that have incontinence and/or periods. I can say with confidence that they do not leak (wish these were around when I was in high school). I also really appreciate them being in black and nude colors; makes me feel they’re more discreet. I think size, fit, and comfort reviews add important and the only ones worthwhile. So I really hope I gave anyone reading this the needed info. Easy to wash too - I run them under cold water to clean; then throw them in with my laundry load. (I wash everything on cold now. Protects fabrics and shape and prevents shrinkage; adds to garment’s longevity). I sized one up for comfort. No tightness around my midsection during period week. FEELS better. My body appreciates not using any tampons, pads or cups anymore. I’ve been entirely using these underwear. My body feels better because these offer gentleness unlike those other options we’ve been relegated to use forever. GENTLE, soft and nourishing during period week. I just put these on and go about my day.

Snug and comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pretty decent underwear.... They fit snug and comfortably. It's very thick in the crotch area and butt area. Like extra padding. I'm a little curious though.... Am I supposed to wear these with or without pads. Because I've been using pads with them. I like how they give me Xtra protection at night while I sleep though because I do tend to leak through my underwear in the back area. This prevents me from leaking through my clothes which is awesome.

Comfort and protection!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are stretchy soft and perfect. The lining isn't bulky and these are easy to rinse and easy to wash. They are decently.absorbent and didn't leak. The sizing is a bit weird as a size 7/L where as a size 7 jeans would be a medium in the underwear so these were a bit bigger than I had intended but they were great for nighttime use. Good coverage both material wise and period wise.

Period briefs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from Influenster in return for an honest review. These period briefs are very comfortable, decent quality, and they work very well. Highly recommend to anyone with a heavy flow that might need a little extra protection. Would not recommend to wear alone on heavy days.

Super soft and right fit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super soft, stretchy cotton that feels like regular underwear but with more way security. No stiff material, no awkward rubbing, no heavy diaper feeling. The waistband has a noce gentle hold without digging in. I tested on a heavy day and felt totally protected. It keeps everything feeling fresh and clean throughout the day. They fit great to the size and don’t get damaged after washing.
