Why Choose Between u & me™ Period wear?
Because you deserve the best is our short answer. Our BU.M's are here to change the game with ultra-thin, super absorbent, and incredibly comfortable period wear designed for modern women. We were tired of uncomfortable, bulky, unhygienic and wasteful period products so we spent the time to develop the ultimate solution. Every detail was crafted with you in mind, ensuring leak-proof and odour-proof confidence, breathable comfort, and a truly stress-free cycle experience.
Unmatched Comfort & Confidence: Our organic bamboo period panties are featherlight, breathable, and luxuriously soft, so you feel as good as you do on any other day.
Leak-Proof, Worry-Free Protection: With cutting-edge absorbent technology, you get up to 12 hours of protection with each of our BU.M garments - regardless of which style you choose - keeping you dry and secure without the discomfort of pads or tampons.
Certified & Safe: Our period wear meets strict international textile standards, ensuring zero harmful chemicals and maximum skin-friendliness.
Sustainable & Cost-Effective: Say goodbye to single-use products! Our reusable, eco-friendly period panties save you money while reducing waste.
No bulk. No waste. No worries - just pure period freedom.
Feel Good. Do Good. Period.™
Why only one absorbency level?
Because we got it right!
We believe in simplicity that works.
We designed Between u & me™ period wear to be the only pair you need, no matter the day of your cycle - from light to heavy days.
Instead of forcing you to buy multiple absorbency levels (and spend more money), we created one high-performance design: Every BU.M™ is an ultra-thin, heavy absorbent and leak-proof solution that adapts to your flow.
Save Money: No more buying different panties for different days. One BU.M™ does it all.
More Freedom: No second-guessing what to wear - just confidence, comfort, and peace of mind every cycle.
Designed for Real-Life Cycles: Whether it’s your heaviest day or just light spotting, your BU.M™ has you covered.
Multi-Layer Leak Protection: Our advanced absorbent core holds up to 4 tampons' worth of fluid, keeping you dry and secure for up to 12 hours - 40ml of fluid without the bulk - what more can we ask for?
Ultra-Thin, Yet Super Absorbent: No bulk, no discomfort- just lightweight, breathable confidence all day (or night!).
We believe period should be simple, stress-free, and affordable - one perfect solution is simply better than too many compromises.
Feel Good. Do Good. Period.™
What is the Science behind BU.M™ period panties? Please explain the four layers of protection and comfort.
Engineered with cutting-edge fabric technology, each pair of BU.M™ period panties is designed to keep you dry, comfortable, and confident throughout your cycle. Our four specialized layers work together seamlessly for superior comfort and peace of mind.
Layer 1: Moisture-Wicking Layer
• The innermost layer is crafted from ultra-soft organic bamboo cotton, certified by Oeko-Tex® and GOTS for safety and quality.
• This layer is designed to wick moisture away from your skin, keeping you dry and comfortable all day. It also prevents irritation, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
Layer 2: Absorbent Core
• The second layer features ultra-absorbent material, capable of holding up to 4 tampons’ worth of menstrual flow.
• It locks in liquid while remaining thin and lightweight, so you don’t feel bulky or weighed down.
Layer 3: Leak-Proof Barrier
• The third layer is a waterproof yet breathable barrier, ensuring no leaks or spills - providing extra confidence even on heavy-flow days or during physical activity.
• Made from GRS-certified materials, this layer aligns with our eco-conscious production values.
Layer 4: Outer Comfort Layer
• The outermost layer is soft, stretchy, and designed for everyday wear, providing a sleek, discreet fit under any outfit.
• This layer ensures maximum comfort while maintaining durability for long-term use.
BU.M™ period panties are designed to be thin, breathable, and discreet, offering a revolutionary alternative to traditional menstrual products. Whether it’s for everyday wear, sports, or overnight protection, you’ll feel confident, dry, and protected - all while embracing a sustainable solution for your cycle.

Caring for your BU.M™ Period Wear
To keep your BU.M's in top shape and maximize their lifespan, follow these simple care tips:
• Rinse your period wear in cold water immediately after use to remove excess fluid.
• This helps prevent staining and ensures your panties stay fresh.
• Wash your BU.M's in a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
• Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals as they can break down the fabric and reduce absorbency.
• Air dry your BU.M's by laying them flat or hanging them up to dry.
• Avoid tumble drying as the heat can damage the fabric and affect the performance of the layers.
• Do not iron your BU.M period wear, as this could damage the moisture-wicking and absorbent layers.
• Store your BU.M's in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight to maintain fabric integrity.
By following these simple steps, you can ensure your BU.M™ period wear remains comfortable, effective, and long-lasting, giving you peace of mind for years to come.
