DID YOU KNOW?

On average we dispose of 10,000 to 12,000 used sanitary products in our lifetime.

This means up to 300-400 pounds (about 136-181 kg) of period-related products get thrown away in a lifetime.

Also synthetic pads and tampons can take around 500 to 800 years to biodegrade!

TOXIC SHOCK SYNDROME

What is it and how can I reduce my chances?

Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a rare and potentially life-threatening illness that is thought to be caused by infection with certain types of bacteria.

Using tampons can increase the risk if they are left in for longer than recommended or a person uses "super-absorbent" tampons. 

The POM Alternative

By wearing POM during your period instead of using tampons, liners and pads, you can greatly reduce the risk of TSS as there is no insertion of product and no loose product pieces that can enter or become stuck in the vagina. 

Normal good hygiene practice is still required, and your POM underwear should be changed regularly (after 8hrs).

  • MY OWN EXPERIENCE

    "I wish I had these when I started my period, it would have made the whole process so much calmer.  No more thinking about tampons, having enough supplies, worrying about leaks!

    This product changed my relationship with my period and I would love to help as many people as I can feel the same way."

  • SO EASY!

    "Now that I’ve finally tried POM I’ll never go back to tampons or pads.  They are the most comfortable undies I could ever wear and I have 100% confidence of no leaks.

    I used to hate remembering how long I had my tampon in or feeling like my pad was bunching constantly.

    It makes having my period so much less hassle."

  • ACTUALLY KINDA CUTE

    "So I thought I'd just give POM pants a go out of intrigue I was not planning on them making my period experience so much easier and relaxing. Plus I was definitely not expecting period underwear to be as comfortable and cute as POM pants are! I'm converted no doubt."

  • MADE FOR LAZY BONES

    I admit it, I am lazy. I just put mine on and don’t have to think about it again for hours. I probably wear them longer than I should, but they never leak and never feel uncomfortable. No planning, no remembering spare tampons in my handbags, school bags, gym bag.

  • A CONVERT

    I am free. No more mess, no more tampons or pads. 
    I am a convert, POM are the answer for me from now on.

  • FANTASTIC

    Why didn’t I make the switch ages ago. They are incredibly comfy, look great on and they just feel like normal undies to me. All I need is one pair for the day, and a pair overnight and that’s it. No fuss, no mess, no thinking.
