Does size really matter?
We come in all different shapes and sizes. Everything we wear is tagged by a number or letter— even our period products!
While our shoes and waist can be measured by rulers and measuring tapes, we can’t help but wonder…
How do we measure our period? What size pad am I?
Don’t worry! Olli & Vyn has got you covered!
First things first! Think about your flow … is it heavy? Light? Do you leak during the day? Or at night? Knowing the answers to these questions will help determine what you need.
Regular: These are typically regular in length and work great for your light to medium days (which occurs around day 3 of your period).
Large: This size is great for medium days because it gives a little extra coverage by the longer length.
X-Large: These are great for your heavy flow days. The pad is larger and longer which gives you the extra coverage and protection against leaks and spotting on your clothing. Typically, your heavy days occur within the first couple days of your period.
Overnight: The name says it, it's great for night. It’s typically longer and wider in the back to give extra coverage through your sleep, no matter how many times you toss and turn.
Always keep in mind that every person's body is different. Finding your right size may take a few tries and it's ok. Another trick to figuring out your size is choosing a pad that matches your underwear size. For example, if you wear large underwear then a large pad may work for you.
Here at Olli & Vyn we offer pads and tampons of all sizes and brands. We got you covered lol!
