Engineered for heavy-flow days, this pad offers a high absorbency capacity equivalent to 3-4 tampons, making it ideal for both day and night use. While it significantly reduces waste by potentially replacing 390 tampons annually, users should be prepared for the added responsibility of manual or machine cleaning after each use.

FAQs
How many tampons can this pad replace?
Each pad can save up to 390 tampons per year from going into landfill when used as a primary substitute.
Can I use fabric softener when washing the pads?
It is recommended to avoid fabric softeners as they can coat the absorbent fibers and reduce the pad's efficiency over time.
How long can I wear the pad at one time?
The pad is designed to be worn for up to 10-12 hours, depending on your individual flow.
Will the colors bleed in the wash?
The pads are designed to be color-fast, meaning they will not bleed or fade during standard cool machine washes.
Is the pad suitable for night time use?
Yes, its heavy-flow capacity and 12-hour wear time make it an excellent choice for overnight protection.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn stains after washing
Soak the pad in cold water with a gentle, eco-friendly stain remover for 30 minutes before the next wash cycle.
Pad takes too long to air dry
Ensure the pad is hung in a well-ventilated area, preferably near a fan or natural airflow, away from direct high-heat sources.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Washable Period Pad, follow these care instructions:
- Pre-Wash: Rinse the pad in cold water immediately after use to remove excess fluid.
