Your questions answered

How does Akari work?

Akari's AbsorbX™ four-layer technology absorbs flow, wicks moisture away from your skin, locks it in without bulk, and holds it there for up to 12 hours. No leaks. No odour. No thinking twice.

Machine wash, hang to dry, and they're ready to go again!

Built to last as long as you need them to.

How many pairs do I need?

Find your perfect fit based on your flow:

  • 3–5 pairs: Ideal for shorter, lighter periods.
  • 5–7 pairs: Best for full-cycle coverage.
  • 7–10 pairs: Recommended for super heavy, lengthy periods and postpartum bleeding.
Is Akari safe?

Yes. Our manufacturers are OEKO-TEX® 100 certified, meaning our underwear is free from PFAS.

Trace environmental PFAS exist almost everywhere but nothing harmful is ever intentionally added to our fabrics.

Is period underwear reusable?

Yes! Our period underwear is washable and reusable. You can wear it, wash it, and wear it again, just like regular underwear.

How much do they absorb?

Akari styles are designed for light to heavy flow, depending on the cut.

  • Maisie G-String: light (10–15 ml / 2–3 tampons / 2/3 tsp)
  • Callie Mid-Rise: medium to heavy (15–20 ml / 3–4 tampons / 3/4 tsp)
  • Elora High-Waist: heavy (20–25 ml / 4–5 tampons / 5 tsp)
How do I find the right size?

We recommend following the hip measurement to find the most accurate size. Be sure to measure your hips at their widest point, your butt included.

We recommend sizing up in underwear styles that fit below the waist, or if you're looking for the most comfortable fit postpartum. The underwear should fit snugly but not so tight that it becomes uncomfortable.

Check out our size guide to make sure you get the best fit.

Will Akari feel wet?

No. Akari’s moisture-wicking layer draws fluid away from your skin, keeping you dry, comfortable, and confident.

Will Akari underwear smell?

No. Akari’s absorbent layers are designed to lock in fluid and odour when washed correctly.

Can I wear them overnight?

Absolutely. Akari is perfect for sleep.

Can Akari be worn beyond your period?

Yes. Akari is also perfect for:

  • light bladder leaks
  • spotting
  • discharge
  • postpartum recovery
Will Akari show under clothes?

No. Akari is VPL-friendly. Luxury laser-cut lines. Zero bulk.

How long will Akari last?

The lifespan of your Akari underwear largely depends on how you wash and care for it. Our period underwear is designed with longevity in mind, with leak-proof technology that has been tested to withstand 100+ washes with proper care.

That’s more than 8 years of periods when worn once a month, helping you reduce waste and keep your underwear in rotation for longer.
