Like period underwear, period activewear is designed to absorb blood during your menstrual cycle without the help of a tampon, pad, cup or disc. While you could certainly wear period underwear under your regular workout clothes while exercising, activewear items like period leggings and shorts remove that extra layer of fabric while preventing leaks — a bonus for anyone who prefers to go commando during their workouts.
Period-proof products vary and may absorb differing levels of blood, so it’s important to read over the details before purchasing to ensure they’ll work for your flow.
