Menstrual bikini - Johanne
Menstrual swimwear, like Flow menstrual panties, is sewn with a built-in pad, consisting of a minimum of 3 technical layers that direct fluid into the pad, absorb the fluid and ensure that you do not bleed or leak through.

We deserve better
Why choose Flow period underwear?
After two fertility treatments and two births, I no longer wanted to use menstrual products that went inside my body - I wanted to be able to bleed in peace.
That was the beginning of Flow - the first period underwear on the Danish market.
Today, we make period underwear with a focus on comfort, quality, and responsible production - created by people who menstruate themselves.
✔️ Soft, skin-friendly materials
✔️ Different absorption levels
✔️ Comfort like regular underwear
✔️ A more environmentally friendly alternative to disposable products
Our mission is to make menstruation freer, safer, and less complicated - without compromising on style or function.
Kind regards, Cathrine


Menstrual swimwear for teens
Can teens bathe during menstruation?
An Australian study shows that 67.3% of teens avoid swimming during their period. We want to change that.
Of course, you can bathe during your period - some will even experience relief from discomfort when moving in water.
Menstrual swimwear makes it possible to swim safely during menstruation - the same technical layer as in your panties, but quick-drying.
If you are bleeding heavily, a menstrual pad or cup can be a good supplement.

The absorbency is light to moderate. If you are bleeding heavily, we suggest combining it with a cup or a pad.
Our swimwear is designed with a built-in, absorbent layer that captures and encapsulates menstrual blood. This layer is combined with a waterproof yet breathable membrane that prevents you from bleeding through while swimming or sunbathing.
The textiles are light and quick-drying, ensuring that you can move freely and feel dry shortly after being in the water.
1. If you have bled in your menstrual swimwear, rinse them in cold water until it runs clear.
2. Protect your swimwear in a laundry bag and wash your panties with similar colors at 30-40 degrees.
Tip: You can wash with our Allergy Certified special detergent Bloody Clean .
3. Dry them inside out on a clothesline - and you're good to go again.

Menstrual bikini - Johanne (teen) is a bikini for teenagers and young people
Menstrual bikini - Johanne (teen) is developed for teenagers and young people, so that menstruation doesn't have to put an end to summer swimming trips.
Many young people skip the beach, the swimming pool or sports when they have their period. We want to change that. Johanne provides discreet protection so you can bathe, swim and move with greater confidence – without compromising on style or comfort.
From the outside, it looks like a regular bikini bottom. Inside, you'll find our discreet absorbent technology with three functional layers that protect you during light to moderate periods.
How does a menstrual bikini work?
Johanne is developed with an integrated absorbent gusset, which is sewn directly into the bikini bottom.
The three functional layers help protect during menstruation, while the bikini feels light and looks like regular swimwear. This means you can bathe, swim, play beach volleyball or relax by the pool with greater peace of mind.
If you have heavier periods, we recommend combining the menstrual bikini with a menstrual cup or menstrual disc for extra protection.
Made for active summer days
Johanne is designed to follow your movements – both in the water and on land.
The tight fit helps the bikini bottom stay in place, while the quick-drying material makes it comfortable to wear all day long. It works just like a regular bikini, even when you're not on your period.
