PREPARING YOUR CHILD FOR THE FIRST PERIOD IN SCHOOL

PREPARING YOUR CHILD FOR THE FIRST PERIOD IN SCHOOL

Getting ready for a first period, can be a bit daunting. especially if it happens in a school setting. Have a conversation with your child about what to expect during their first period. Discuss menstruation openly and answer any questions they may have.

Pack a pair of LAPISZ Period Underwear in their school bag, use a small, discreet pouch or bag. Include a small pack of wipes or hand sanitizer for quick clean-ups.  LAPISZ Period Underwear comes in various sizes and styles and different absorbency options. Make sure to choose the right size and fit for comfort and effectiveness. For first period we suggest you choose CLASSIC range which has high absorbency. Have your child try the period underwear at home before their period starts. This helps them get used to the feel and fit.

Talk with your child about how their first period went. Address any issues or concerns they might have. School going children have reported using LAPISZ Period Underwear for minimum of 8-10 hours on very heavy flow days. Just for comfort you may want to sent a spare pair. 

Be supportive and understanding as your child navigates their first period. It’s a new experience, and they might have a range of emotions. By preparing ahead of time and making sure your child feels informed and comfortable, you can help ensure their first period experience is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
