Periods and sports: a central topic in a woman's life

Sports and periods—a topic on many women’s minds. In the face of common myths, there’s never been a better time to get moving, sweat, and let off steam during your period. Exercise actually has many benefits: it can reduce period pain, help you feel better in your body, and boost your mood. So, if you’re feeling up to it, throw on your favorite thong, roll out your mat, and go for a fitness session, yoga, Pilates, or cardio!

Louloucup menstrual thong: feminine, organic, and absorbent

Three things to know before ordering a Louloucup menstrual thong.

⊹ Sexy, black, lacy, and feminine

Besides being a piece of period underwear, it’s also a beautiful, feminine, and sexy piece—elegant and lightweight, making you feel both comfortable and pretty! Having your period doesn’t mean sacrificing your femininity! You can absolutely choose pretty styles like organic cotton and lace tangas.

This lovely piece of feminine lingerie highlights your curves. The tanga sits between a bikini and a thong: sexier than a bikini, but less daring than a thong, making it the perfect middle ground. No wonder it’s a favorite for so many.

⊹ Made from organic cotton and manufactured in Europe

The Louloucup black menstrual thong is made from certified organic cotton. Organic cotton is a natural material that allows your skin and intimate areas to breathe. It's also incredibly soft and pleasant to the touch, ensuring maximum comfort.

Tested and certified, this material is free from chemicals classified as carcinogenic (dioxins), AOX (halogenated organic compounds such as chlorine), herbicides (glyphosate), and insecticides. Our Louloucup thongs are Oeko-Tex Standard certified.

This great alternative to tampons and pads is made in Portugal. Our thongs are 100% European: designed in France, fabrics from Italy, made in Portugal. Certified to ISO 9001, BSCI, and OEKO TEX 100 standards.

⊹ For a light to normal menstrual flow

Our thongs and Louloucup light flow menstrual panties are designed for light periods. The absorbent layer sewn inside the menstrual underwear reliably and effectively holds period blood, as well as vaginal discharge (secretions) or light spotting outside your period.

So, the thong or light flow menstrual underwear in cotton and lace is the perfect replacement for disposable panty liners. This feminine hygiene product absorbs the equivalent of one to one and a half tampons, or about 10 ml of menstrual flow.
