Femi.Eko® menstrual panties are documented to be safe against bacteria. Extensive tests have shown the antibacterial effectiveness of the absorbent layers against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Candida Albicans, even after 50 washes.
Why are Femi.Eko® menstrual panties safe?
Femi.Eko® panties are designed to absorb menstrual fluid, daily secretions and even incontinence leaks. This is achieved through their protective overlapping layer that absorbs and stores the liquid inside.
Unlike traditional pads, Femi.Eko® menstrual panties offer high breathability without the use of plastic inserts and gels that can maintain a moist environment. In addition, they can be washed and reused for years, making them an environmentally friendly solution.
What makes Femi.Eko® menstrual panties unique?
At Femi.Eko®, we prioritize innovation and the introduction of new technologies that improve women's intimate hygiene. We have patented an anti-bacterial technology for the overlapping layers of our menstrual underwear, which are made of 45% hemp and 55% organic cotton.
This combination of materials creates a safe, healthy and natural environment for the intimate area, free from chemicals, pesticides or hormone-disrupting substances, while inhibiting bacteria and unpleasant odours.
Do Femi.Eko® menstrual panties protect against bacteria?
Yes, Femi.Eko® menstrual panties effectively protect against bacterial growth.
The unique absorbent layers of hemp and organic cotton are hypoallergenic and fight moisture effectively. This reduces the risk of odors and irritations and ensures a drier environment during use, meaning superior protection during a period when women are more susceptible to infections.
Hemp is known for its natural antimicrobial properties and effectively reduces the development of bacteria and fungi without additional chemical treatments. Combined with organic cotton, which adds breathability and is hypoallergenic, this blend is ideal for maintaining a dry, non-pathogenic environment during menstruation, when sensitivity and risk of infection increase.
Femi.Eko® menstrual panties are tested against bacteria: Here are the results!
When safety and health are priorities, Femi.Eko® menstrual panties stand out by using hemp, a fiber that reduces the risk of allergies and irritations and effectively combats the spread of pathogenic microorganisms.
This remarkable efficiency, supported by test results, confirms our expectations. Femi.Eko® menstrual panties are not only a hygiene product, but a necessity for women's health during menstruation, daily use and for incontinence problems, where the risk of infection is higher.
In addition to antibacterial effectiveness, the tests also showed absorption efficiency, moisture resistance and durability after repeated use and washing. These characteristics are essential to ensure that the product not only meets but also exceeds consumer expectations in all relevant areas, making it a superior product with comprehensive benefits.
Test results and performance superiority according to the FZ/T 73023 standard:
Class AAA : Standard tests show an antibacterial effectiveness after 50 washes with inhibition rates of 80% for Staphylococcus aureus, 70% for Escherichia coli and 60% for Candida albicans.
Femi.Eko® menstrual panties exceed these standard norms of specialized antibacterial tests and show an inhibition rate of over 99% for Staphylococcus aureus, 97% for Escherichia coli and 97% for Candida albicans, even after 50 washes.
This means that Femi.Eko® hemp-based absorbent underwear offers antibacterial protection 19% above the AAA class standard for Staphylococcus aureus, 27% against Escherichia coli and 37% above the highest test standard for Candida albicans.

Why wash Femi.Eko® menstrual panties at 60 degrees?
Hygiene is essential when using a reusable product. Femi.Eko® menstrual panties and reusable pads have been specially developed with consideration for intimate health. Thanks to the durable hemp layers, it is possible to wash the naturally antibacterial Femi.Eko® menstrual panties at 60 degrees, which makes them a unique product in the world!
