Our emotions are valid on and off our period.

@g2tpb @eros2tp thanks for pointing out the double standard!

Yes, our founder had her husband smell her used pad after she wore it for 8 hours. Couple goals?

Let’s dissect.

Our bamboo pads are ultra-thin, yet super absorbent (even on day 2 heavy days). Not only do our pads provide superior leak protection, but they help fight odor naturally too. You can wear Flex Bamboo Pads on your period with comfort and confidence!

Happy International Female O Day!

In a world where we’re constantly battling stigma, misinformation and deprioritization, we refuse to back down. Body literacy is invaluable.

Let’s say it all together! Female pleasure is not optional.

Os also help alleviate period cramps :D

If u get easily grossed out, don’t worry it’s just better than bouillon, yellow water paint, and cranberry juice*

Now for the important stuff. We all know tampon strings are pretty annoying. Flex Discs are not only non-toxic, but they have longer leak protection than tampons, too! 12 hours of leak protection to be exact!!

We’re a female-founded company that was tired of the same old menstrual products that made period week miserable, so we did something about it!

Our period disc addresses top concerns like discomfort, leakage, irritation, pH disruptions, and odor, all without comprising your safety and comfort on your menstrual cycle. You won’t find any PFAS here.

Plus, because we know trying something new can feel scary, we have Flexperts ready to answer all your questions. Just text (800) 931-0882. We’re here for you!

How old is the oldest pair of underwear you own?? You know where to drop your answers, we’ll even go first. 2 years.

Turns out there’s no exact expiration date for underwear. Underwear should be clean, dry, and functional. If your underwear looks like the above, it might be time to replace them. Opt for cotton gussets and non-toxic detergents. Let us know if you have any other women’s health questions!
