Let’s talk about sleep during your period. This is a time when your body really needs rest, but sometimes it's the worst for tossing and turning.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
At Fri Period, we designed our boxer briefs with overnight comfort in mind—because you deserve to sleep soundly, even on your heaviest days.
No More Midnight Leaks or Stained Sheets
Our boxer briefs are the overnight period hero you never knew you needed. Made from breathable organic cotton and bamboo, and ethically crafted without using PFAS or other toxic nasties, these beauties hold up to 3 tampons' worth of fluid and feature our signature printed gusset—no more stain shame, just the kind of confidence that leads to your best night's sleep ever.
Whether you sleep like a log or do cartwheels in your dreams, the full coverage, stay-put fit gives you peace of mind that you won’t wake up to any surprises. Wear them on their own or under your PJs—whatever suits your style.
And yes, they’re comfy enough to forget you’re even wearing period underwear. Our customers rave about how secure and breathable they feel through the night:
“It actually works—I was scared to use it by itself and surprisingly nothing leaked on me all night!” – GG
“Perfect for heavy nights! Wearing these prevents me from having to get up in the middle of the night, which is wonderful!” – Meredith L.
“So comfortable and no need to worry about leakage!” – Lara G.
How to Sleep Better on Your Period
Of course, period-proof undies are just one piece of the puzzle. If sleep tends to evade you when you’re on your cycle, here are a few tips to help you get some proper shut-eye:
1. Stick to a Bedtime Routine
Your body loves routine. Try winding down with a warm shower, herbal tea, or some gentle stretches. Lavender oil or a calming playlist works wonders too.
2. Ditch the Bloat with Smart Snacks
Avoid heavy meals or salty foods before bed, which can make bloating worse. A banana or handful of almonds? Perfect.
3. Move Your Body (Even Just a Little)
Gentle movement during the day—like walking or yoga—can reduce cramps and help you fall asleep faster.
4. Sleep Cool
Hormones can mess with your body temperature, so make sure your room is on the cooler side. Breathable underwear (like ours!) also helps keep you comfy.
5. Wear the Right Period Protection
Let’s be real: constantly waking up to check for leaks is exhausting. With Fri Period boxer briefs, you can rest easy knowing you’re fully covered—literally.
The Bottom Line
You need rest. Your body’s doing a lot right now. Our boxer briefs are specifically designed to support you while you sleep, so you can wake up feeling refreshed—not frazzled. Leakproof, breathable, body-positive, and ethically made—we’ve got your back (and your front).
