Excellent service an quick delivery
A beautifully soft pad. While it's very large, it's so so comfortable and reassuring to wear.
My mother and I care for my grandmother, who has fairly severe urinary incontinence, and having got very dismayed at the huge number of disposable pads we were sending to landfill, we decided to try getting her to use your biggest megapads instead. With one extra insert, one pad can keep her dry all day on a good day, and she is now only using disposables at night, which has cut her used pad output by about 80%, and we're working up to using them at night too. We have also discovered that they work best without the poppers done up underneath, as being a larger lady, the extra width of the wings gives her more coverage, and the pads stay put anyway, which is great.
I suffer from both stress incontinence and an irritable bladder which
necessitates the constant wearing of pads. Unhappy with the cost both
financially and environmentally I looked for an alternative to
disposables that would be comfortable, washable and affordable. I bought
a Mega Pad just to try out and I just wish I had bought it long ago. It
is very comfortable next to the skin (no chaffing - bliss) and the
'nappy rash' I had has disappeared. I have saved myself lots of money,
helped our planet and no longer need to feel embarrassed having to buy
disposables in shops. Thank you so much for an excellent product, please
contact me when there are some more in stock' Chris
Although I bought some mega pads which are the largest pads available and are advertised to be effective for urinary incontinence, I've been using them and have found them ineffective. They are not able to absorb the leaks properly, let alone a full bladder.
Also, they are too expensive for what they are.
I am sorry to hear you haven't been satisfied with the Mega pad. It sounds like you must have near total urinary incontinence, which this pad is not designed for (and it does say in the listing that it won't take a whole bladder). The Mega pad was designed for the heaviest menstrual flow, and in 15 years we have never heard of it being unable to cope with menstrual flooding. We do have plenty of customers who love the Mega pad for weak bladder issues, but it sounds to me like your leaks are just too much for it, and perhaps you should be looking at specifically designed incontinence nappies. We are experts in menstrual flow pads, and although large numbers of our customers use them for weak bladder leaks, they are not designed specifically with that in mind. I do hope you find something to suit your needs.

Absolutely amazing the company is amazing after months of using my shorts I can confidently say they’re more than worth the money the pads stay in place and the legs don’t roll up so I don’t have any chafing from knickers to contend with anymore, I definitely didn’t make my order easy but the person I talked to did everything in their power to help will definitely have to order more
Treated myself to some new pants, I'm the kind of person who prefers mens boxer style underwear so was very excited when I saw these. They're extremely comfortable, great fabric, and most of all THEY DON'T WEDGIE!! I've discarded so many pants because every couple of minutes one has to pull them out of one's arse crack. More expensive per pair than other pants, but worth it for comfort and doesn't look like they're going to frey like cheap ones do.
I actually use these to wash my face in the evening, lovely and soft and easy to clean. Also great for pretty much any task where you might usually use cotton wool pads.
Very comfortable to wear and perfect for days 1-3 of period and if you suffer incontinence gushed trying to undo your button going to the loo. I've been using this company's pads for a few years now and haven't looked back, they're much more comfortable and absorbent than disposable pads. The chemicals in disposable pads hurt my skin, as long as you're careful with what products you wash them with, I don't get any skin irritation and they don't all wrinkle up at the sides like regular disposal pads do. I highly recommend Vicky and Honour your Flow! Has definitely been a lifesaver for heavy periods.
I havent used the pads yet. They were bigger than expected but I am in touch with Vicky about a replacement or refund.
Great products, really soft against my skin and wash well.
Pretty and keep you dry all day
10/10, comfy and just what I expected. The seller is perfectly wonderful and incredibly helpful. Lovely lady. Well worth the money for hand made clothes and supporting a small business. Just what I had been hunting for.
love these, soo comfortable i dont feel them at all! and love the colour!
The pad is great — very comfortable, soft, easy to clean, and the size is just perfect. The material also feels really good. I love it!
These are absolutely fantastic and something I’ve been searching for for so long!
For starters, I am a chronic illness haver, and I have PCOS (now PMOS) and endometriosis, as you can imagine I have super specific needs. These are so light and breathable so they do not set off any allodynia or skin irritation, nor mess with my already broken temperature regulation.
Although it is suggested to get a size down especially for the bamboo, I decided to get my usual size (20), and I’m so glad I did. The band does not feel like it’s cutting me in half and they also do not fall down, and yet there is plenty room to accommodate for the massive bloating I get and for my various heat pads! If you prefer a tighter fit I can definitely see why sizing down is recommended.
To be able to choose from my own pad collection (which now also includes a mega pad from here which works perfectly fine with these shorts for me and makes me feel so secure) and stay comfortable and cosy is so important to me. I no longer have to suffer seams cutting in on my legs or uncomfortable bands when bloating. I even love wearing them when I’m not on my period, especially when it’s hot weather. Not to mention the absolutely wonderful customer service, so helpful and kind. I am overjoyed and can’t recommend them enough!
Great at removing chocolate from trousers, red wine from cream carpet, acrylic paint and sweat from white cotton school shirt... and of course blood.
Great pads. Well constructed, comfy, non-sweaty. Have worn HYF pads ever since I first got my period. Have even found that reusable pads help with cramping. (Once when I had to use a disposable one at work, the pain was so bad I got sent home!) The PUL feature is great as well. No more leaking straight through when sitting or standing in one position for ages. Well worth the buy. High recommend.
Very happy with these. Comfortable and efficient. And great to be savingso much from landfill.
Brilliant, small but mighty stain remover stick. Doesn’t peel my skin off my hands like other chemical ones do, and does great job.
