Clean Pods

Yes, you can put them in the machine. One pod, a cold cycle, no pre-wash. An enzyme-powered formula built for period blood, and it works on the period underwear you already own.

  • One pod, one load, no pre-wash. No separate ritual and no soaking first.
  • Enzyme-powered, built for the machine. Its own formulation, aimed at the same stain our sheets are aimed at.
  • A cold cycle is what the care label asks for, and this is built for cold water. No bleach, lightly scented.
  • 3 pods a package, one per load, so a package covers about a cycle.

Works on any brandNot only on pairs we made.

You are not being precious about the machine.
Nobody ever told you which cycle.

So the answer, plainly: cold, no fabric softener, no dryer. Heat and friction are what wear an absorbent gusset out, which means a cold cycle with the right detergent is the gentle option, not the risky one. And yes, you can run it with a dark load.

How it works

One pod. Cold cycle. Done.

No pre-wash, no soaking, no separate load ritual to remember.

1

Drop one pod in

Straight into the drum with your load. One pod handles one load.

2

Run a cold cycle

A normal cold cycle, everything turning together. No fabric softener, and do not put the pair in the dryer afterwards.

3

Take them out clean

Hang the pairs to dry. That is the whole job.

Why it works

Enzymes, in a pod that goes straight in the drum

The pods are their own formulation, built for a drum rather than a sink. What carries over from our sheets is the target: enzymes aimed at the place period blood actually binds, which is inside the absorbent layer.

The film around the pod dissolves in the drum, which is why there is no pre-wash step. Everything happens in cold water, and cold is what protects the layer doing the absorbing.

No bleach. Lightly scented. One pod per load, three pods a package, so a package covers roughly a cycle.

5 reviews, and every one of them is real

Ratings and counts on this page come from Judge.me, the review app on our store. We do not write them.

Twenty-minute soak, zero scrubbing, every stain gone. I finally stopped ruining pairs in the regular wash.

Early tester

Even after a heavy training week the pair came out clean. Simple, and honestly kind of lovely.

Finally a wash made for period underwear. No mixing with other clothes, no wondering if it fully rinsed out.

5 reviews is 5 reviewsThat is what Judge.me holds against this listing on our store. We are not going to lean on the sheets rating to make it look bigger, because the pods are a different formulation and that rating is not about them.

A cold cycle with a pod, next to a normal wash

The worry is that the machine will ruin them. Usually it is the detergent and the heat that do the damage.

Regular detergent, warm cycleA Clean Pod, cold cycle
Does the blood leave the absorbent layer?Partly. Nothing in it targets blood protein, so some stays in the padding.Yes. Enzymes go after the bind itself, so it rinses away.
Do you have to pre-wash?Usually, and often twice.No. One pod, straight in with the load.
What happens to the gusset over time?Heat, softener and the dryer break down the absorbent core.Cold water, no bleach, no softener, no dryer.
Can it go in with the rest of the load?It can, and that is where most people start to worry.Yes, with a dark load. Cold water, and hang the pairs to dry.

Which plan is yours

The pods are identical in all of them. What changes is how many months you buy at once, and how many packages that is.

What you getWho picks it
1 month1 package $24.99 a month One package of 3 pods a month. That is 14% off the one-time price. You want to try the wash before you build a habit around it.
3 months3 packages $21.33 a month 3 packages of 3 pods, in one delivery, paid for in a single charge up front. That is 24% off the one-time price. Most women. It is a season of not thinking about it, and it is the middle price.
6 months6 packages $19.00 a month 6 packages of 3 pods, in one delivery, paid for in a single charge up front. That is 31% off the one-time price. You already know this works for you and you want the lowest price a package.
One package, $29.00, no plan A single package of 3 pods. Nothing recurring, nothing to cancel. You want to try it once with no plan at all, and that is a completely fine answer.

The pairs this was built for

Our detergent works on any period underwear. Our own pair is the one designed alongside it: a 4-layer gusset that holds 20 to 30 mL, bamboo soft, Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified.

On a three-month plan two pairs come free, and on six months four do. On the one-month plan they are half price. Tick the box in the buy box above and the price changes there, or start from a bundle.

Honest stock note: M is sold out right now. XS, S, L, XL and 2XL ship today. 3XL is on our size chart so you can find your size, and it is not something you can order yet.

Everything else, answered

The machine questions, the formula, and the money, in one place.

Using them
Which cycle, and what to avoid
Cold, normal cycle. One pod straight into the drum, no pre-wash, no soaking first.

Three things to avoid, and they matter more than the cycle you pick: hot water, fabric softener and the dryer. Softener coats the absorbent layer, heat and tumbling wear it down. Hang the pairs to dry and a pair keeps working.
Can you machine wash period underwear at all?
Yes, on a cold cycle, with no fabric softener and no dryer. The reason people are told not to is that heat and friction wear out the absorbent layer, and ordinary detergent leaves blood protein behind in it. A cold cycle with a detergent built for period blood is the gentle option.
Can I wash them with the rest of my laundry?
Yes, with a dark load, on cold. That is the straight answer rather than a rule we invented. If you would rather keep them separate, a small cold load or a hand wash with a sheet both work.
Do I need to rinse or pre-wash first?
No. Rinsing first does no harm if you prefer to, but the pod is designed to do the work in the drum without it.
Will the machine ruin them?
What ruins a pair is heat, scrubbing, softener and the dryer, in that order. A cold cycle with a pod avoids all four.
What is in it
The full ingredient list
Straight off the safety data sheet for what is inside the pod: water, glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, coconut oil acid, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, isotridecanol polyoxyethylene ether, dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, triethanolamine, sodium alcohol ether sulphate, urea, a branched-chain ether, fragrance, enzymes, and colourant.

Three honest notes. It is lightly scented, not fragrance free. The surfactants are anionic, so this is not a sulfate-free formula. And it is a different formulation from Quick Sheets, built for a machine rather than a sink, so we are not going to tell you it is one product in two wrappers. What it is: cold-water activated, bleach free, with enzymes that break down period blood.
How many pods are in a package, and how long does it last?
3 pods. One pod per machine load, so a package covers roughly one cycle.
Is this the same as Quick Sheets?
No. They are two formulations, and we would rather say so than let you assume otherwise. Both use enzymes to break down period blood, both work in cold water and neither contains bleach. The chemistry around the enzymes is built for the job: a sheet has to dissolve in a bowl of cold water, a pod has to dissolve in a machine drum. Same price, same plans, and you can swap between them on any renewal.
The plans, and the money
What each plan is 3 months3 packages
One package is 3 pods, about one cycle.

1 month · 1 package · $24.99/mo · save 14%, billed every month
3 months · 3 packages · $21.33/mo · save 24%, billed once for the 3 months, up front
6 months · 6 packages · $19.00/mo · save 31%, billed once for the 6 months, up front

Or one package at $29.00 with no plan at all.

The ladder is the same on Quick Sheets, and you can swap between the two formats on any renewal.
Washing by hand instead
If you are travelling, sharing a bathroom, or you would simply rather not use the machine, Quick Sheets do the same job in a sink: rinse, soak one or two pairs with one sheet for 20 minutes, rinse and hang. Same price, and you can swap a plan between the two formats whenever you like.
