FAQs About Ruby Cup Period Pants
How do Ruby Cup Flow Freedom Period Underwear work?
Ruby Period Underwear has multiple absorbent layers, including an inner layer of polyester and nylon blend and a middle layer of polyester for enhanced absorption. These additional layers trap your menstrual fluid, keeping you feeling dry and fresh throughout your cycle.
What sizes are available for Ruby Cup Period Underwear?
Ruby Cup Period Underwear comes in various sizes to suit different body types. Our sizes range from XXS to 4XL. Check our size guide to find the perfect fit for you.
What's the difference between Flow Freedom and Fearless Period Pants?
Flow Freedom is Ruby Cup's heavy-flow pant, holding up to 50ml (3 tampons), with full front-to-back coverage. Fearless is a lighter, ultra-thin style designed for lighter days or backup use with a menstrual cup. Most people benefit from having both.
Are Ruby Cup Period Pants certified safe?
Yes — they are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, meaning every component has been rigorously tested and confirmed free from harmful substances.
Are Ruby Cup Period Pants reusable?
Yes, Ruby Cup Period Pants are reusable, making them eco-friendly and cost-effective. Simply rinse them in cold water after use and hang dry. Avoid using fabric softener, bleach, tumble drying, or ironing to maintain their quality and performance.
Do Ruby Cup Period Pants leak?
Ruby Cup Period Pants are designed to provide leak protection and peace of mind. The absorbent layers and secure fit help prevent leaks during normal wear. However, it's crucial to choose the appropriate absorbency level for your flow and change them as needed.
Do period pants smell?
No — when made with quality materials and changed within the recommended timeframe, period pants don't smell during wear. The absorbent layers trap fluid and lock in odour. Rinsing promptly after removal prevents any build-up.
How do I wash period pants?
Rinse in cold water until the water runs clear, then machine wash on a cool cycle with gentle detergent. Air dry only — never tumble dry.
How long can I wear period pants?
Between 8 and 12 hours for most people, though this varies with flow. If you notice wetness or detect an odour before the 12-hour mark, it's time to change into a fresh pair.
How many tampons can one pair of period pants absorb?
Ruby Cup's Flow Freedom pants absorb the equivalent of three tampons (50ml). Fearless Underwear absorbs the equivalent of two light tampons. How long they last depends on your personal flow.
