FAQs

A light flow refers to minimal menstrual bleeding, often absorbing less than 10ml of blood per day. Light flow periods may only require liners, light tampons, or light-absorbency pads for period protection. If you’re unsure about your flow, choosing products labeled ‘light' or 'mini' absorbency can provide comfort and coverage without bulk. 'Regular' pads may also be suitable.

A regular flow typically involves moderate menstrual bleeding, bleeding about 10-20ml of blood per day. It’s the most common flow pattern, often lasting 3-5 days (though anywhere between 2 - 7 is consideed normal). If your flow is steady but manageable without frequent leaks, products labeled ‘regular absorbency’ are a great choice. On the Moxie absorbency scale, 'Regular' is 3 droplets (Australian variatns).
-
A heavy flow refers to menstrual bleeding exceeding 20ml per day, often requiring more frequent changes of high-absorbency tampons, pads, or menstrual cups. It may last longer than 5 days. For heavy flow days, look for products labeled ‘super’ or ‘overnight’ for maximum protection. (5 droplets or more on he Moxie scale).
