At Ora Protections, menstrual panties are made up of 4 layers: 3 layers of textiles and a waterproof layer. This waterproof layer prevents blood from passing through the panties and staining your clothes. They allow absorption of up to 40 mL, or 12 hours of protection depending on your flow. Air circulates through the 4 layers to let the vulva breathe. Moisture is controlled, thus preventing bad odors and the spread of harmful bacteria.

Our warehouse is located in Lavaltrie and each product is carefully inspected before delivery. Packages leave our warehouse and are delivered directly to your home.

The panties are made in China. Our manufacturer is audited every year by the SGS Group, which is a global pioneer in the inspection, verification and certification of companies so that they align with environmental and ethical standards, conscious. This audit company is that of Best Buy, Haier, Canon, Home Depot among others.

Producing in Quebec is an option that we constantly consider in our business vision. For the moment, after constant research, it is clear that the workforce, expertise and large-scale production are still lacking on the market.

As a result, Quebec production would not be enough to meet demand and would not allow consumers to easily access this type of protection (they retail at around $60 for a pair of panties, for good reasons!). We are also very proud of the few companies that manufacture their products here, in order to offer this choice to consumers.

As the main mission of Ora Protections is to facilitate access to menstrual panties for as many women as possible, we have made this choice to produce overseas. And this in a conscious, thoughtful and responsible way.

Our suppliers are carefully selected for product quality, working conditions and ethics. Our products are tested and you are assured of receiving a quality product that works; as well as our personalized assistance and support at all times.

Absolutely. They were designed to replace disposable hygiene products.

It is essential to know your flow in order to determine your ideal duration of maintenance. We advise you to test the panties at home during your first use in order to know how many hours your panties will remain 100% absorbent. The more absorbent the panties, the longer you will be able to wear them, on average between 6 hours to 12 hours.

Between 1 and 3 times a day. If your flow is heavy, you will need to change more often. To reduce the frequency of changes, it is best to opt for our high absorption panties (the equivalent of 6 to 8 tampons) which offer up to 12 hours of protection.

Yes. It is best to opt for our high absorbency panties (the equivalent of 6 to 8 tampons). Tip : Combine the menstrual panties with a washable pad. Once the washable pad is full, simply remove it. The menstrual panties will take over.

Yes. Unlike disposable pads and tampons that are made of chemicals, Ora Protections menstrual panties do not disrupt the vaginal flora. In addition, their absorption technology prevents moisture and therefore protects against yeast infections and harmful bacteria, as well as itching.

The golden rule is to choose panties that reflect your daily activities. In order to choose the model that suits you best, analyze your lifestyle. Do you move a lot? Opt for a model with good support. Do you have sensitive skin? Favor natural fabrics.

The most important question is obviously the abundance of your flow. Each model has a different absorption capacity. If your flow is heavy, opt for a high absorption panty (up to 8 tampons). Knowing your cycle is necessary; we know in particular that the first days of your period are heavier than the last days, so you can definitely choose several models and use them at the right time. On average, customers buy between 3 to 6 panties that they wear throughout their cycle.

Our washable towels have the same characteristics as our menstrual panties. However, their inner layer, in contact with the vulva, is made of bamboo carbon. This material is known for its high absorption capacity and its ecological properties.

Rinse in cold water until water runs clear. Hand wash or machine wash at low temperature with a mild soap, such as our stain remover soap in store. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Air dry only. For best results and increased durability, use our wash bag available in store.

Menstrual panties have an average lifespan of 60 washes, or more than 3-5 years. To ensure their reliability, avoid using greasy soap and/or soap containing glycerin. Do not bleach, use a washing net and dry flat.
