A PERSONAL STORY EXPERIENCED BY MILLIONS OF WOMEN
“My endometriosis caused me constant bleeding, and I suffered from enormous pelvic and neuropathic pain that I was able to relieve naturally with hydrotherapy baths. But the pain caused by the internal protective devices related to my adenomyosis prevented me from fully benefiting from this solution, compounded by the stress caused by the endocrine disruptors they can contain. By talking with other women, I realized it was time to think about ourselves and create the protection we lacked: one that takes into account our bodies as well as our comfort and mental well-being.”

You might be wondering
How long can I wear a sanitary pad?
Each washable sanitary pad offers dry protection for up to 6 hours out of the water, depending on the intensity of your flow.
However, in the water, be aware that the body naturally tends to reduce or even temporarily stop menstrual flow due to water pressure. This is why it's important to change your menstrual product before entering the water to prevent blood from a used product from leaking out.
After swimming, we recommend changing your sanitary protection promptly, as menstrual flow typically resumes within 10 minutes. This habit also helps reduce the risk of infection and ensures optimal protection.
Finally, if the pad is wet when you get out of the water, don't worry: it won't cause a leak, except in the case of a very heavy flow. You can then remove it and switch to a dry pad quickly and discreetly.
Can I use Pure.By Zehnia protection in my own underwear?
Yes! Pure.By Zehnia pads are designed to fit all your underwear .
The Zehnia panty simply allows you to benefit from the same insert (open-sided panty gusset) as that found in our swimsuits, in order to ensure optimal support and avoid any risk of the protection slipping into the panty .
If you have any comments on this, please feel free to join our co-creation WhatsApp group to help us improve the next version of these panties.
What is the difference between this and regular menstrual underwear?
Classic menstrual panties have an absorbent pad sewn directly inside, which means you have to change your entire panty every 4 to 6 hours (because yes, even if some brands advertise 12 hours of effectiveness, all menstrual protection must be changed every 4 to 6 hours to protect your health ).
The Pure.By Zehnia solution allows you to use your underwear:
• outside of your period, without protection ,
• during your period, with protection ,
• and to reuse this same protection in your everyday underwear .
Therefore, your purchase makes sense for your daily life, your health and the planet .
What is the difference between this and a menstrual swimsuit?
A menstrual swimsuit incorporates an absorbent pad sewn directly inside, which requires you to change your swimsuit bottoms after each swim.
The Pure.By Zehnia solution allows you to use your bikini bottoms outside of your period without the protection , during your period with the protection , and to reuse this same protection in your everyday underwear .
Therefore, your purchase makes sense for your daily life, your health and the planet .
What is the difference between high-performance material and organic cotton?
Both materials absorb up to 80 ml (heavy flow). However, the high-performance fabric pad features a special knit that allows even heavy flow to quickly penetrate the pad, thus preventing leaks.
Organic cotton is the material recommended by doctors. However, it lacks any special knitting technique, which can make it take a little longer to dry and feel slightly more damp against the skin.
We created these two materials to allow you to test their advantages and disadvantages:
• high-performance synthetic material (certified free of harmful substances),
• the natural material made of organic cotton.
This way, you can form your own opinion and make a fully informed choice, according to your needs and comfort.
Both protections are offered at the same price , so that your choice is based on your health and well-being , and not your budget.
What type of protective material should be preferred in swimsuits?
We have developed our high-performance fabric protection, specifically designed for swimming.
The fabric in contact with the skin has a unique knit , different on the right and wrong sides, allowing for rapid absorption of the flow and accelerated drying of the protection.
This ensures a dry feeling , even in humid or perspiring conditions.
Can Zehnia washable sanitary napkins be used at night?
Absolutely! Zehnia washable sanitary pads are designed to be with you both day and night. Thanks to their optimal absorbency, they offer effective protection for several hours, whether for daily activities or a peaceful night's sleep.
However, we recommend regularly checking the intensity of your flow in order to adjust the frequency of changing your menstrual protection to ensure comfort and hygiene.
Why change your protective gear before and after swimming?
It is important to put on a clean and dry cover before swimming to prevent a cover that has already been used from wringing out in the water.
You should also change your protective clothing when you get out of the water to avoid the risk of infection linked to prolonged contact between mucous membranes and wet fabric.
Zehnia swimsuits are the only ones that allow you to make these changes so easily: with a traditional menstrual swimsuit, you would have to completely change your swimsuit bottoms before and after each swim .
That's the key difference compared to a classic menstrual swimsuit bottom .
