The menstrual cup post got me thinking.
I'm going to order some Thinx panties for light days. Anyone one have a referral code?
Thanks!

Come back and leave a review!! I think Thinx sounds kind of...gross? But I also thought that about menstrual cups up until like a month ago so ...haha
ETA: I've only had like 4 periods since May 2013 though. So I haven't exactly been thinking about it

@bees_knees: they are good. My mom has bought every girl in the family Thinx plus their Icon line (same company) for some senior friends.
They’d be good post partum too. So my issue is specific—I don’t wear them alone, just as a backup with a tampon because my plateletes were low for over a year, so my blood wasn’t clotting which creates nightmare periods where I had constant leakage no matter what, and even enormous overnight pads were not working. And this is super disgusting but oh well—my issue was, even if I washed the blood out immediately, and the panties *looked* clean, when I wore them again, this nasty smell would come out when the area got...warm. I know, gross. So I was tossing panties left and right, many pairs each cycle.
These I don’t have to toss. Maybe the antomicrobial lining, but they don’t stink after a leakage incident and I wash them normally.

@Anagram: interesting! Not gross, just real talk I bet they would be awesome for PP! And even just as a backup on heavy flow days!
