Pantiliners are products designed for your daily hygiene. A lot of women/girls wear them on the days in between their periods to absorb any natural discharge to help keep them feeling clean. They can also be worn at the beginning or end of your period when the menstrual flow is light or as a backup to a tampon any time during your period.
2. How do pantiliners work?Pantiliners typically have three layers; a top layer, a thin absorbent layer, and a back layer. The top layer allows moisture to be pulled into the absorbent layer away from your skin. The back layer helps keep moisture inside the pantiliner away from your underwear.
3. What is the difference between pantiliners, pads and tampons?Pads and pantiliners are worn outside the body. They attach to your underwear and absorb fluid after it leaves your body. Pads are typically used to absorb heavier menstrual flow and pantiliners to absorb lighter menstrual flow or natural discharge. Tampons are worn internally and are inserted into the vagina. They absorb fluid before it leaves the body.
4. Can I wear a pantiliner overnight?Yes, pantiliners are designed to be worn for day and/or night usage.
5. Can I wear a pantiliner when I exercise?Yes, they have adhesive on the back of them, which helps keep the pantiliner in place to help you be comfortable.
6. Can I use a pantiliner for discharge other than menstrual fluid?Yes, pantiliners are actually designed so that they can be worn for everyday use to absorb natural discharge. You could also use them for light urine loss, helping to keep you feeling clean.
7. Can I use a pantiliner, a pad and a tampon at the same time?If any of these products are going to be worn at the same time it would typically be a tampon with a pantiliner or a pad, as backup protection. A pad and pantiliner are not normally worn at the same time.
8. Are some people allergic to pantiliners?Before P&G makes a product, the materials and products are thoroughly tested to ensure they are mild to the skin and do not cause skin sensitization.
9. How do I know which pantiliner to use?There are a variety of pantiliners available, ranging in sizes from thong to long. So you can try the one that fits your panties best and makes you feel the most comfortable.
10. How often should I change my pantiliner?How often you change your pantiliner depends on what you find most comfortable for you. Since a pantiliner is worn outside the body, there is no set time. You should change your pantiliner as needed to keep you feeling clean.
11. How do you dispose of pantiliners?Pantiliners should be thrown away; they are not flushable. If you are using the individually wrapped pantiliners you can use the wrapper to dispose of your pantiliner. Or, if you are using a non-wrapped pantiliner, you may want to use the paper that covers the adhesive or toilet paper/tissue to roll the pantiliner up in before throwing away.
12. Can you flush pantiliners down the toilet?No, pantiliners are not flushable.
13. How do I know what size pantiliner to use?Whichever size fits your panties best and makes you feel the most comfortable. There is no set size; it depends on your personal needs.

15. Can my pantiliner fall out of my underwear?This is highly unlikely; they have adhesive on the back of them to help keep them securely in place. However, it is important to press the pantiliner firmly into place for better adhesion.
16. Can I wear a pantiliner with a skirt?Yes, you can wear a pantiliner with any article of clothing as long as you have an undergarment to attach it to.
