Best pads for extremely heavy bleeding
I've been using Cariona pads for about a year and a half and they are AMAZING. I have adenomyosis which causes extremely heavy bleeding. Bleeding through my pad daily and having to change my pad every 2-3 hours was my norm for most of my life. Not anymore! Even just the regular pad can sometimes hold up through a whole day, which was shocking to me, because I've never been able to get away with a regular anything. I did an experiment using water and found that the panty liner holds more than a disposable OVERNIGHT PAD from Always. The PANTY LINER!!!! I've been able to regain so much freedom and confidence with these, not to mention comfort. It's not an exaggeration to say these changed my life. They are also so much softer and more breathable than disposable pads. I feel so much cleaner and healthier during my period than I used to. I love all the colors and patterns they come in, and the waterproof bags make them easy and convenient to store or bring with you.
I've had a few pads lose their absorbancy over time because I washed them with the wrong detergent or something, purely user error. Overall, they hold up extremely well and I have zero complaints. If you have extremely heavy bleeding and none of the solutions people recommend have worked for you, these are the pads you want.
Super Comfortable and Cute Reusable Pads from Cariona!
I recently decided to try switching from disposable pads to reusable ones, but I wasn’t sure if I would like it. So, I decided to try Cariona's starter pack, and I'm really glad I did! These pads are super soft and way more comfortable than I expected (definitely better than the disposable ones). Also, the color patterns are so cute!
Overall, I am super happy with my purchase and have already ordered more pads. If you're thinking about making the switch, I highly recommend giving Cariona's reusable pads a try!
5 years Strong
I have been using Cariona pads for 5 years. The original pads I bought are still in great condition and usable even 5 years later. They are an amazing investment and one that is well worth the time and money. I just bought some new ones since there was a change in my reproductive circumstances and I know these will hold up just as well.

I love my cariona pads!
I love my cariona pads!! I started with the trial pack and I will be ordering more! They last so much longer than disposable pads, and after washing I can barely even tell they were used. Highly recommend!

I started out with the regular trial pack, used it for a good handful of cycles, and now am upgrading to the pro version. The pads are super soft and comfortable and extremely easy to wash. I just throw them in with my regular laundry. The regular pads can be a bit slippy if you're moving around a lot, though, so I'm hoping the pro mitigates that issue a little. My periods are pretty light, so my experience might differ from someone else. I don't ever plan to use disposable pads again.

Reusable Pads Are Much Better For Your Health
Before trying these pads, I used to have super heavy, super irregular periods. Then someone told me that single-use pads can have harmful chemicals in them that cause cancer, and gave me a link to Cariona. Within one period of trying these pads my flow was much lighter, and subsequent periods were far more regular than I had ever experienced. I genuinely swear by these pads when it comes to reproductive health. If you have really heavy, really painful, or really irregular periods, you should try these pads. They're free of harmful chemicals, very soft and comfortable to wear, don't smell and can hold a lot of fluid. To clean them you can just throw them in the laundry with your other clothes, no special care needed. There's a lot of advantages to using reusable pads, but I genuinely believe it is much, much healthier for your reproductive system.

I really like these pads
I really like these pads. They cut down a lot on waste, have fun designs, and are very comfortable to wear. You do have to get a good number of them and washing can be a bit difficult (not in getting the blood out but just on when to wash so you can use them again without using to much water), but once I got a rhythm going it was all good.

This is my second order and already…
This is my second order and already after using the pads from my first order I can tell that I’m never going back to disposables. For starters, there is no odor that I can tell, since they aren’t made of plastic they are silent to wear, loud pads were the thing I hated most about being on my period while around people, and they feel so comfortable.

I’ve been using Cariona pads for years now with zero complaints. They’ve saved me so much money, and have prevented so much waste from going into landfills!

I Wish I'd Known About These Sooner
I've been using Cariona pads for years now, and I haven't had to replace any of the ones I initially bought (though I have added to my collection). They are a bit of an upfront investment, but I have saved a ton of money in the long run, and they are much more comfortable and more reliable than disposables. They even reduce cramping quite a bit!

Wonderful
Wonderful! Their products feel good to wear, they're easy to wash, and I feel good about saving money and reducing waste.

I love these things
I've been using Cariona regular pads since March of 2022 and they've made my life way easier in several ways; I am saving a lot of money, they're more comfortable than traditional pads (and other reusables I've tried), and I barely have to worry about them from morning to night. And that's not even getting into how much less wasteful this is!

I love these pads
I love these pads. I have been wearing since 2020 and haven't gone back to traditional pads since. They compensate my heavy flow and are easy to clean & best of all they don't leave me with that chaffed feeling or odor I used to get with traditional pads. Thank you cariona.

Love these to use in combination with my diva cup and on my lighter days. They're much more comfortable than those nasty plastic disposable ones. Looking forward to getting my newest order and trying out the reusable cup from here too!

I love the feeling of the pads because it doesn't irritate the skin and there's no rash typically left behind after use of the disposable pads. The only downsides is that the pads kind of lose their ability to keep the blood from getting to my panties, and it happened a couple of times so those were no good. But other than that, they're good and comfortable.

Great!
I started using these a couple years ago, and I keep coming back for more! Thanks to their nontoxic, natural, and sustainable products, my cramps have significantly reduced! They are also much more comfortable than traditional pads. They have held up really well over time and are super easy to clean. Definitely recommend.
