Millions of women* worldwide suffer from endometriosis. The Endometriosis Association Germany eV estimates that between 8 and 15 percent of all girls* and women* are affected - and yet the disease often remains in the shadow of ignorance and stigmatization. Endometriosis is a chronic disease in which tissue that resembles the uterus grows outside of it. This can lead to considerable pain and health problems for those affected.
For many women* with endometriosis, monthly menstrual cycles are a time of agony, as they face intense pain and uncontrollable bleeding. For some sufferers, period underwear can make a significant difference.
Period underwear can be worn very well if you have endometriosis or adenomyosis. In particular, period products that have to be inserted, such as tampons or menstrual cups, can be perceived as uncomfortable or even painful by endometriosis patients. Period panties, on the other hand, can be worn like normal underwear, are very comfortable and reliably absorb bleeding.

I'm Rose and I suffer from endometriosis and adenomyosis. My period is incredibly painful and it affects my daily life. ooia period underwear supports me in all situations. I don't just use it during my period!
Endometriosis sufferers often have problems with hygiene products such as tampons because inserting them can be painful. That's why period underwear is comfortable, beneficial and can be worn like normal underwear. I love ooia period panties because they are sexy and can't be compared to diapers. Simply underwear with a certain advantage 😍

If you are struggling with endometriosis, period underwear could be a valuable addition to your daily routine. Of course, it is important to consider all aspects of your treatment in close consultation with your doctor.
ooia period underwear absorbs blood without leaking thanks to our multi-layer Magic Membrane System and wicks moisture away from the body to prevent leaks while keeping you dry. The panties are soft, super comfortable and stay in place, so you can move freely and concentrate on your daily activities.
If you have heavy bleeding, we recommend our Strong Collection , which can absorb up to 6 tampons of fluid.
If you really appreciate hot water bottles or warmth in general during your period, try our ooia Hugs - the panty has two pockets hidden inside for heat pads, so you can comfortably warm your lower abdomen or lower back while on the go.
I have endometriosis and have been saving up for these underpants for a long time. I always walked around with a huge hot water bottle. Now I have the underpants with pockets for the pillows and can wear whatever I want again. The investment was worth every cent. Your period underwear is an incredible relief on so many levels. I finally feel good again. For the first time in my life there is something positive when I think about my period. You have enabled me to have a completely new everyday life and a great attitude to life. Thank you 🥰! - ooia customer Christina
At first I was a little unsure about the reliability of period underwear, as I have endometriosis and tend to bleed very heavily during my period. I now own 5 different models, both in terms of appearance and strength, and I am very happy with all of them. No pain from tampons, no leakage, just safety and comfort! - ooia customer Katrin
Gamechanger. The first product that makes me feel 100% comfortable during my period (despite or because of my endometriosis). Suitable for sports (jogging, horse riding) and everyday use. Incredibly friendly company and great products - ooia customer VB
The order was delivered quickly and I am very satisfied! Brazilian briefs, all-over lace and high waist keep what they promise - in the truest sense. They are also visually appealing and super comfortable (compared to other brands of period underwear) and a real game changer on my period when it comes to endometriosis pain... - ooia customer Lisa
The menstrual panties from Ooia have changed my life! Due to my endometriosis, my periods are extremely painful and I can hardly use tampons or cups. The panties are sustainable, beautiful, safe and super comfortable! - ooia customer Linda
I have gone from being an extremely skeptical customer to a super satisfied customer. I now have 3 styles at home and thanks to the Ooias I feel better than ever during my period. I always have very heavy bleeding due to endometriosis and thanks to the period underwear I still feel like a human being - thank you for the quality of life in panties :-) - ooia customer Nina
