Advice on reusable pads for my trans-masc self
Post Body

Hey everyone, so I’m not on hormones so still have shark week every month and the amount of plastic waste I produce breaks my heart.

I’d love to be able to use reusable pads to solve this issue but I wear boxer briefs and (from the ones I’ve seen) the wings aren’t wide enough to reach around the bottom of my underwear to secure in place.

I can’t wear the other shape of underwear since this would trigger my dysphoria. So I’d like to ask if anyone knows of any reusable pads that either have wings that would be wide enough or ones that secure in some other way.

If I can avoid pink and purple that would also be greatly appreciated. Sounds silly but really anything like that can ( and does ) trigger my dysphoria

I don’t need anything very absorbent since I use a cup anyway but I need something there for when the cup leaks/fills

I’ll be really greatly to anyone who can give me advice on this, I really want to make my lifestyle as plastic free as possible

Edit: I’m also open to using ‘period panties’ if they’re a masculine kind of shape

Edit: I’m willing to spend £30 max. On either 2 pads or a pair of undies
