As we are all unique in our own way, the same can be said of our periods and daily changes in period flow.  To better understand the absorbency of our products with your flow, we recommend wearing your MYSS purchase at home in and out of the pool or shower/bath to figure out what works best for you. If you have a heavier flow we recommend using our swimwear as an added backup, however on lighter days our swimwear is great worn alone.

Flow guide:

LIGHT FLOW = 1 regular tampon, 1 teaspoon (5ml liquid)

Suitable for spotting, drips and light discharge 

MODERATE FLOW= 2 regular tampons, 1-2 teaspoons (10ml liquid)

Wear time is reduced, we suggest checking the absorbency of your garment more often and consider wearing in conjunction with your regular sanitary products.

HEAVY FLOW

For heavy flows we recommend wearing our swimwear as a backup only to your regular sanitary product and check garment often.

Please note, our product is not an incontinence product

The three layered gusset in our garment works to trap and absorb blood and discharge while you swim. The bottom layer of our garments have a water proof layer added to it to stop water from coming into the swimsuit.

To better understand the absorbency and leak protection of our products with your flow, we recommend wearing your MYSS purchase at home in and out of the pool or shower/bath to figure out what works best for you.

Our gusset can hold up to 10 ml liquid; 2 regular tampons before we recommend changing, however please monitor your swimsuit regularly when wearing it as your flow can unexpectedly change at times.

How long it will take your swimwear to reach maximum absorbency is different for each person and their period. To better understand the absorbency and leak protection of our products with your flow, we recommend wearing your MYSS purchase at home in and out of the pool or shower/bath to figure out what works best for you.

We do not advertise our product as a complete replacement for other sanitary products.
