Rael Disposable Underwear for Women, Organic Cotton Cover - Incontinence Pads, Postpartum Essentials, Disposable Underwear, Unscented, Maximum Coverage (Size S-M, 10 Count)

This is Literally the best postpartum underwear I’ve tried and I’ve tried so many, so soft and comfortable and didn’t irritate my skin at all, 100% recommend

Writing this review after using it for one month. They definitely strive to provide the softness and comfort that they claim. No leaks whatsoever. They fit perfectly as well, for only providing two sizes. I was afraid it might be loose on me but they not only fit to skin, let alone heaving down with weight. I noticed a little smell but again, what sanitary wear doesn't smell after wearing it for a couple of hours on heavy flow days. Nothing too bothering. What made me a fan of these are how flawless they seem under clothing. Like no one can tell that I'm flowing tons and wearing a diaper like other brands. Gotta love them for these. Doesn't even sound plastic-ky when you walk like other brands would. I highly recommend wearing these to anyone with sensitive skin who get rashes like myself after just one day of wearing pads. These are heavenly soft and comfortable.

Unfortunately it still leaked throughout the night. I wouldn’t recommend for heavy periods (I have normal periods btw heavy on day one and two then tapering off) but I used this on day 2 for about 7 hours and it leaked. I would say it’s decent for day 3+ periods to keep on all day and handy for not soiling your underwear and also feels fresher. It’s not bulky, doesn’t irritate the skin but for heavy periods you’ll have to either double up or get another brand that absorbs better. Glad I tried it though

I bought these before a bisalp procedure because I had heard you could bleed after and you’re not allowed to use anything internally like tampons or a cup. I have been a religious cup user for about 6 years now but I had a feeling that pulling on my cup to remove it was contributing a lot to my cramping during my cycle. Not only did these work great for post-surgery and are easy to remove without having to bend over due to the tearing feature, but they’re working great for my period now too. Even on my heaviest day, these undies absorbed everything and I had no leaks. For context, on my heaviest day, I will fill up a normal size cup in about 4-6 hours (or a super plus tampon in about 3-4 hours). I haven’t used pads since middle school and I always hated that feeling of sitting in your own blood. I don’t get that feeling with these at all. It is taking some time for me to stop clenching every time I feel myself bleeding, after a lifetime of that meaning my cup/tampon is leaking haha, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised that these undies are comfy, absorbent, and I feel confident that I won’t have a big old spot of blood on my butt walking around. I also am happy to say that my cramping has decreased dramatically now that I’m not pulling anything out while I’m sensitive. I’ve been totally converted to period undies and will be looking for a reusable solution now. But these were a great stepping stone and I would absolutely recommend them!!

I was on the fence when deciding whether to purchase this. On the Rael website, the reviews for this product were pretty good, with the main complaint being sizing. I'm glad I decided to give the product a try. Backstory: started experiencing skin discomfort with menstrual pad wings (of a well known brand) against my skin, but for overnight, based on my flow on nights 1 & 2, I need some side coverage that wings provide. In doing a little searching, I came across this product. The idea of a diaper style initially made me giggle, but as I looked into it further, I was intrigued by the construction. I liked that the coverage up the front and back went right up - lots of coverage. I wasn't completely sold that there wouldn't be any side leakage. Sizing only comes in S-M and L-XL. The main complaint is that the leg opening is tight for some. Product Design: Where the waistband sits, I'm 32" and top of thigh is 20". The S-M size fits like a glove, and I have no issues with the product ripping as I'm pulling it up. The material is incredible soft and it didn't take long to forget I was wearing it. The first time wearing it, I admit to checking often to ensure no side leakage. In my testing of how much it can hold, it has crept really close, but somehow the design of the sides hasn't caused any leakage. This is amazing because with the overnight pads I have used in the past, sometimes there would be minor side leakage. Compared to the popular brand, this product definitely holds a lot, and I still feel dry, however, unlike the popular brand the way the blood is absorbed is different in that with Rael, the colour of the blood looks more like blood (brighter red). For me, this is not an issue. This is just something I noticed. I also noticed that with this product, there's zero menstrual odor. And where I have had to change my overnight pad (popular brand) once or sometimes twice throughout the night, with this product I may only need to change it once (depending on flow). But last night I decided to chance it and I didn't have any leaks. Wonderful! Removing the product is simple as per the instructions. Disposal is unfussy. This is my second cycle using this product and I'm very happy with it. It does cost more to use, but if I only need 1 or 2 per night, and only on my heavy nights, a package of 10 can last me 4-5 cycles. I do feel it's hygenically better for me as there is no skin irritation (from the wings), and I don't get sweaty down there with this product (probably because it's organic cotton). I highly recommend this overnight product.
