I have ruined a few pairs of new underwear while on my period. Especially, I’m not comfortable using light-colored underwear anymore. But even when I wear dark colors, I still feel bad about it. During this time, do you prefer different underwear or do you stick to what you normally wear? Also, do you think this situation affects my self-confidence?
When I’m on my period, I usually prefer black or dark-colored underwear. I feel bad in light colors because there’s always a stain and it ruins my mood. Plus, wearing comfortable underwear during that time is really important; I avoid tight things.
I’ve basically saved my old or immune underwear for this season. So I’ve completely stopped using new or special lingerie. Also, it’s important to wash the underwear immediately with cold water; stains won’t remain 
But it might also have to do with you not checking enough. I mean, you should change the pad or tampon frequently. Are the new underwear you mentioned high quality? I think you should think about it a bit more in detail.
Honestly, color isn’t something to get hung up on, I think the main issue is the fabric. Cotton underwear is healthier during this process because sweating and breathability are important. Also, to prevent staining of the clothes, delicate detergents should be preferred instead of biological ones.
I’ve noticed that I might not be wearing very comfortable clothes. I think I’m also panicking a bit, fearing that I’ll get stains right away. I’ll consider trying cotton and dark colors. Thank you for the comments.
I think there’s a bit of an issue with self-confidence here. I mean, if even dark colors make you feel bad, it’s not just about the clothes, in my opinion. Maybe your period is affecting your overall motivation.
Honestly, we need to be a bit more practical about these things. In the past, people didn’t pay attention to such fancy details. In the neighborhood, everyone would dress in similar styles when on their period. I believe practicality should always take precedence over aesthetics.
No one around me wears light-colored underwear when they’re on their period, for example; everyone avoids taking risks from the start. A few of my friends carry spare underwear in their bags, which is actually quite sensible, but I usually can’t be bothered.
I think you should choose dark-colored, cotton underwear while on your period; you’ll feel more comfortable and won’t have to worry about stains. Also, if you wash your underwear right away, nothing will remain. If you’re still feeling very affected, it might be helpful to consider the psychological aspect.
