Yes, they are.


Agree. They actually trap moisture and can lead to more infections, even if changed. Even the cotton pads are lined with plastic. They are terrible for you and the environment. She needs to just get used to some wetness, change out underwear more frequently if she needs to, or try merino underwear. Definitely no panty liner at night, best practice would be no underwear while she sleeps.


OK, "so to save the environment", women need to go back and time and not use menstrual products. Get use to wetness? You are crazy.

Just go to CVS or walmart and buy panty liners like any normal person.


Normal discharge shouldn’t require multiple panty liners every single day 24/7


100% not true for some of us. It’s sucks, but here we are.


Ok, but if the liners are causing irritation (which is the case here, and in many women), changing underwear or using a different kind of underwear is a better solution.


Correct. It that wasn’t the point PP was trying to make.

OP’s daughter has been using. And they are irritating her. Panty liners can predispose you to yeast infections and even cause contact dermatitis in the vulva area.

They sell liners that are 100% pure cotton. Try those.

Our daughter had this same problem until she tried Thinx period underwear. Being what they are designed for they are absorbent, so she doesn’t get the wet feeling and doesn’t have to change.

I use a daily liner, and try to use washable fabric instead of disposable (I'll use disposable if I'm traveling or whatever). Cotton flannel is cooler to wear washes up better than the microfiber ones. Glad Rags brand has a good cotton flannel liner in a small size.

I agree with a PP that she should be drying well after shower, and sleeping with loose or no bottoms - of course 24/7 liners is going to irritate. But no soap, or excessive washing.

I eventually switched to maxi pads because they keep me dryer, and sometimes ai still change them during the day. If the liners aren’t keeping her dry enough, she might find a maxi works better.

Merino wool underwear. They are pricy, but worth it, imo.

I get these granny panties because I am old

But WoolX https://www.woolx.com/collections/womens-merino-wool-underwear
and other brands might have more youthful styles.

Can she change her underwear during the day? I am very sensitive to pads too and prefer to wear them as little as possible. Also, no underwear at night might be good too.

Try Rael daily pads. They are 100% cotton. Made a huge difference for me.
