The UK’s first period underwear brand, WUKA, offers a range of comfortable, leak-proof, washable, and sustainable underwear in different styles, sizes and absorbencies
Periods can be a challenging time for women, largely due to issues surrounding sanitary products. The inconvenience of running out of tampons or sanitary pads, discomfort during use, and the recurring cost can all add to the stress.
Reusable, sanitary underwear can offer significant relief in these areas. They are washable, comfortable, leak-proof, and easy to incorporate into daily routines, making them a godsend for anyone dealing with leaks or simply wanting less fuss during their period.
WUKA claims to be the UK’s first period underwear brand, aiming to entirely replace disposable tampons and sanitary pads. Currently, they’re offering a fantastic deal on their Ultimate Collection, with a 3 for 2 offer and prices starting at £17.99.

WUKA Ultimate underwear is crafted from luxurious Tencel fabric and organic cotton, providing highly-absorbent, comfortable, and breathable protection against leaks. A variety of absorbencies, styles, and sizes ranging from XXS to 6XL are available, with free shipping across the collection.
From your everyday undies to nightwear and swim gear, they’ve got it all covered – think boxers, briefs, and even lacy numbers. WUKA’s reputation is solid on Trustpilot, boasting a hefty 4.4 out of 5 stars based on 820 reviews, reports Wales Online.
One chuffed customer raved in their five-star review: “I have been using these for the last 5 months, they are an absolute game changer for me,” adding that they experienced “No leaks at all which means I sleep all through the night. They are super comfy and pretty to look at. Easy to wash. I have heavy and medium ones and I will never use pads again which saves me money in the long run and the environment. I keep telling my friends about them. Such a brilliant idea.”
Another satisfied user penned a glowing five-star comment: “I bought these for my niece who is 13, and they have proven to be a godsend. I went for the heavy flow to be on the safe side. No more leakage-ruined underwear or pads. When you add up the cost of sanitary wear and replacing spoilt underwear I think they are good value. They have definitely proven to have had a positive impact on her during her period. Also the customer service from WUKA is of the highest standard – they have gone out their way to provide outstanding customer service. I would definitely recommend.”
A closer look at personal experiences reveals one parent’s approval: “My teenage daughter is a complete convert now and has enough pairs to last the whole period, so I needed to buy more washbags to keep them all tidy. She loves her WUKA’s, especially for playing rugby, but as a fidgety sleeper they’re extra secure at night which means less accidents and sheet changing for me. Order was processed and delivered very promptly as usual.”
However, not everyone’s journey with the product was seamless. One person encountered issues: “I really wanted to like them because they had great reviews and are really comfortable to wear. But the first time wearing them I had a feeling the padding didn’t come high enough at the front and I might leak and I did. Gutted.”
On the brighter side, another customer labelled their experience ‘life changing’, expressing delight with the undergarments: “These period pants are honestly the most comfy things I’ve ever worn. I’ve been unhappy with tampons for ages but didn’t know what other options there were. I have 6 pairs of period pants now and I will never go back to tampons. They are so convenient, I wear one pair for 12 hours on my heaviest days, which as a teacher is ideal as I never used to get time to change my tampons and I was always worrying about leaks.”
For those exploring alternatives, other brands such as Modibodi offer sales across various lines. Additionally, Marks and Spencer stocks a diverse array of cosy period pants for those seeking different options.
If you’re looking to replenish your underwear drawer with reusable, comfy, eco-friendly and leak-proof options, WUKA is your go-to. They’re currently offering a 3 for 2 deal on their Ultimate Collection, boasting a range of styles, sizes and absorbencies to cater to everyone’s needs.
