Menstrual underwear is a type of reusable garment designed to be worn like regular underwear to absorb menstrual flow or vaginal discharge. It is made with absorbent layers and a leak-proof barrier, often using materials such as cotton, lycra, polyester, and thermoplastic polyurethane, to provide protection without the need for disposable pads or tampons.
As a reusable device intended for menstrual management, menstrual underwear is subject to regulation as a medical device in many jurisdictions. It is typically supplied for multiple uses after washing and is not classified as a medicated product, meaning it does not contain pharmaceutical agents.
