ooia's latest innovation: Germany's first highly absorbent period lingerie - extra strong absorbency meets sensual, Italian lace. To ensure the extra strong absorbency, the membrane system in the front and back part has been extended into the waistband - safe even on the strong period days!
Our lace is made out of recycled polyamide and spandex. Production is carried out in compliance with certified recycling standards, which, among other things, ensure the traceability of the material. A wonderful side effect: the use of recycled materials makes the lace even softer on your skin!
The period underwear Brief Lace Leaf Strong holds up to five tampons of liquid while feeling completely dry. This makes it ideal for your medium to strong menstrual period days. Plus, the Brief Lace Leaf Strong is washable, making it reusable. You can wear the Brief Lace Leaf Strong alone or as a back-up to other period products.
The Brief Lace Leaf Strong is delicate and loves to be handled gently. Please use a laundry net when washing your Brief Lace Leaf Strong and do not put any other garments in it. They can damage the lace. Your Brief Lace Leaf Strong will thank you and stay with you for a long time.

bacteria inhibition
Your health is our top priority
Gynecologists confirm that a bacteria inhibiting coating on period underwear is indispensable.
We are the only brand to have had the bacteria-inhibiting effect of our products tested. The antibacterial effectiveness has been confirmed by an external laboratory and is tested at regular intervals. This means that the use of the bacteria-inhibiting agent counteracts the formation of odors and proliferation of germs.
The bacteria-inhibiting effect of the silver chloride takes place directly in the fiber.
It is very important to us that we communicate transparently in this regard.

still have questions?
Depending on the model the ooia period panty is designed to hold 1-6 tampons or 10-30ml of fluid. How many and when to use ooia period panties depends on your needs - your preferences, your plans, the heaviness of your menstrual flow, and many other factors. To cover one period completely you need about 5 ooia Period Pantys - assuming that one is worn at night, one during the day, and that the used panties are washed after two days.

How many and when to use ooia period panties depends on your needs - your preferences, your plans, the heaviness of your menstrual flow, and many other factors. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. If your period is light to medium, you can most likely use ooia period panties without additional period products. If you are bleeding heavily, you may want to use additional protection (tampon, cup).
If you treat ooia period underwear well, it will retain its full bacteriostatic effectiveness for about 2 years. After that, you can of course continue to use them as "normal" underwear - although studies say that underwear is rarely used for longer than two years. But we are happy if ooia is used for longer.
