Troubleshooting
Swimsuit not feeling secure
Ensure the swimsuit fits snugly. If used for moderate flow, check that the absorbed fluid capacity has not been exceeded. For heavier flows, consider using it with a menstrual cup or tampon.
Fabric discolouration or degradation
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight without UV protection, and rinse thoroughly after use in chlorinated or saltwater. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.
Reduced absorbency over time
Follow care instructions carefully, avoiding fabric softeners and high heat drying, which can impact the absorbent properties of the gusset.
