Evaluating 189 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the products for their comfort, reliability, and excellent quality, often describing them as game-changing and superior to other brands.

The customer service is frequently highlighted as outstanding, with people commending the team for their helpfulness, efficiency, and prompt resolution of issues, even when ordering from abroad.

Pants need improving and patches should be recalled

The period pants leak at the front, the absorbent section doesn't come far forward enough which is a shame as otherwise they are good.

Also the heat patches have burnt my stomach. I had one on over the period pants and about 5-6 hours after applying I noticed my stomach was stinging so removed it. This morning I have noticed my stomach is still red and has blisters.

One of those companies that makes it really difficult to return items.

I contacted WUKA because the pants I ordered were too small and wanted to arrange an exchange. They sent me a link to their “Delivery and Returns Information” page instead of the actual return address, but when I opened the page, there was no information about the return address at all.

So now I have to contact them again just to get the address needed to return the items.

The worst part: They don’t send a return label, QR code, or prepaid shipping option. You have to arrange and pay for the return yourself.

Customer service has been polite, but the return process feels unnecessarily confusing and unprofessional so far.

I also want to mention sizing: I normally wear a size S in Denmark, but after reading reviews I ordered a size L, and they were still too small. Definitely consider sizing up several sizes if you are from Scandinavia.

The return address is mentioned on the Delivery and Returns page if you scroll a little further down, and we have also clearly mentioned in our FAQ that we do not provide prepaid return labels for refunds or exchanges within the UK or internationally.

We truly apologise if this was unclear in your experience. Please reply to the email, and we will be happy to assist you further.

Fantastic period pants

Fantastic period pants. Very comfortable, no leakage issues and far superior to previous brand ModiBodi which I purchased 10 pairs all a mix of styles but all leaked. Bought Wuka to try out as a replacement and wished I’d bought them first. Love the fact that they stretch to cover growing teenagers and no need to keep replacing as with other brands. Super comfortable and discreet under clothing.

Best period knickers for first periods EVER

I so wish we had these rather that giant sanitary pads when we was younger. They are amazing. My daughter has just started her periods and wanted the period pants after talking about them at school, we chose Wuka after a recommendation from a friend and haven’t looked back. They are brilliant, nice and stretchy so you don’t need to worry about size. The pad area covers fully from front to back. Gone are the days where you think you’re going to leak at school because my daughter puts on a clean pair before school and changes them when she gets home. No leaks and super comfy. She also has autism so needs to feel comfortable and have no seams which this knickers have compared to other big brands.
We did have a problem with one pair where the stitching came away, after emailing customer service they are sending out a replacement pair today. All sorted less than 24 hrs.
Honestly best product ever. Well worth the money.

Very surprised how good these were. Bought for my daughter and she said they were very comfortable and didn’t feel like they were going to leak at all. No fault smell from them even after they’d been on for a while. Would absolutely recommend to anyone and will defo be buying more for her.

WUKA needs more fame!


I don’t usually leave reviews, but I feel like this is the least I could do to give back to this brand. I’ve been using WUKA for well over a year now and I wanted to share my honest experience as a teen. For the first year of having a period, I had a horrible experience. I was constantly leaking, in so much pain and told ‘I just wasn’t used to it yet’. I felt like there was no solution other than to go through mountains of disposable pads per day, until I came across WUKA on TikTok. I was skeptical when I first heard about period underwear, that surely there must be a smell or you would feel unhygienic. However, after fully converting I can confirm this has changed my life! They are SUPER comfortable, I can go out all day without changing the pants and have never experienced any issues. After not leaking once since wearing them, I have 100% confidence in these pants which is something I have never had in a period product before. I’ve gone from sleeping on towels and being scared of tossing and turning too much, to happily rolling over in white bed sheets without a worry. The happiness I feel from not having to think about which clothes I can wear just in case I ruin them is unmatched. Genuinely, I feel like those women from period product adverts that say they can do anything. I have even started running again because these pants are pretty much invisible even in leggings. I also have recently purchased the period swimming costume and can’t wait to try it out for the first time on holiday after avoiding pools like the plague for the few years! I wish I could shout the name WUKA to every girl who felt like heavy periods stopped them from living. To someone who has never experienced the hardships of dealing with this, this may sound dramatic but I would have missed out on a lot if I had never found WUKA. Just to make one of my favourite brands even better, their customer support is also incredibly helpful and always respond promptly. I wish more people knew about this brand as even if you don’t struggle with heavy periods, the comfort level is something many people don’t even know you can reach while on your period. Not to mention the environmental benefits using reusable period products has. So, I encourage anyone who is considering buying period pants to silence any doubts and just give them a try because they might shock you in the best way possible!
I feel like I could go on more about their genuine brand values, the representation in their models, the wide range of sizes, style and colour, the support for neurodiverse people, the obvious care for their customers and the fact they now offer heat patches, vitamins and everything else you could ever need on your period but I don’t want this review to turn into an essay!
(Side-note: For context of my experience I use the super heavy with high coverage gusset pants at night, and the super heavy with mid height gusset during the day. Also, my favourite tip is that sometimes staining can happen even when they still work perfectly fine due to the pants not containing any chemicals, but if that bothers you, you can simply dye them and they look completely fresh again. Lastly I would recommend buying one pair to try, but if you like them invest in 2-3 more so you don’t have to worry about washing and drying pants in one night so they are ready for the morning. I used to do that though, so it is possible but can be a little inconvenient because it requires you to use the washing machine every day, so having a few pairs to rotate can be easier. )

It was fast delivery. The confidence my daughter has had in sports while wearing these is amazing. No panicking that she may leek through, just put them on and carries on doing the sport she loves. she says I feel comfortable and don't feel bulky like a normal sanitary towel would and they also very discrete.

They lasted me whilst hiking in the mountains!

I treated myself to the new stretch/seamless pants and went head first and wore them hiking in the mountains and they did me proud - no leaks, stretchy and comfy. I much prefer the high waist to the hip cut ones, just feels more comfortable. I was worried they'd be too small but they stretched to fit and don't dig in. The fact they are PFAS free is really important to me and I love the work they do in tackling period shame and poverty - I only want to put my money in to brands like that.

Customer of 2+ years

These pant have literally saved everything about me as a pcos women who have always struggled with heavy pain on period days .
I have used wuka pant for over two years and boy ther are amazing. This made me feel confident, comfortable and most of all leek free. After two year of use i can truly say they are worth every penny pounds u have. It feels like I have nothing on. These pant keep everything together and mostly I have worn them over 12 hours no leak no smell, and they last a long time without thinking I need to change. As a women feeling confident when your on your period is extremely hard but I'll tell you These have made me more confident and proud to have. I have tried other brands and nothing beats a wuka pant.
They were built to last. I also have notice my period cramp have gone as it support free bleeding with no harsh material.

They have saved me more times than I can count.
I bought a swim suit from them as I am a busty tgirlie 42dd the racer back adds just a little extra support for the twins upstairs and my twins downstairs were held perfectly locked away in her cage.
Even on my heaviest days of my period.
I feel safe secure & emotionally femmine as I am transitioning into a woman. Wearing wuka makes me feel sensually more femme. ❤️❤️

Saved my bacon on my wedding day!

I've tried a few brands of period pants before settling on WUKA and have about 9 pairs of the black brief-style pants which have been brilliant. What prompted this review though was how the seamless nude briefs saved my bacon on my wedding day. I was able to enjoy our special day without having to worry at all about leaks which would have been a total disaster in a white dress. Not only did they give me confidence throughout the whole day, they were so comfortable and you couldn't see them at all, impressive given that my dress was a gorgeous sheath-style, fitted dress! I had two pairs for the entire day

We’ve had such a positive experience…

We’ve had such a positive experience with WUKA teen period pants. They’ve been fantastic for my daughter’s first period—comfortable, reliable, and really helped her feel confident. She’s been able to wear them discreetly at school without any worries, and they’re so easy to use and wash. It’s taken a lot of the stress out of managing periods for the first time. I’d highly recommend them to any parent looking for a simple, fuss-free solution.
