Thinx Inc., the leading period underwear brand headquartered in the United States, has announced the launch of Thinx Teens, a new line of reusable and sustainable period panties with built-in leak protection.

Thinx Teens is a simple and safe reusable period underwear that looks and feels like regular panties while absorbing up to five tampons or two and half regular pads worth of flow. They are easy to wear and wash, the company said in a press release.

Thinx Teens offers four different styles (brief, bikini, shorty, sleep shorts) and an assortment of color choices appealing to teens including Black, Heather Grey, Grape, Seafoam, Tidal Wave, Hologram, Confetti, and Lucky Star, in standard youth sizes 9-16.

"First and early periods can be a mix of emotions and experiences that are totally normal, but sometimes awkward and stressful. The Thinx Teens collection is designed to help this new generation of menstruators feel confident, comfortable, and protected all-day long, free from stain and leak anxiety," said Crystal Zerrenner, chief growth officer of Thinx, Inc. "Importantly, I'm very proud to offer this line at a lower price point. We are committed to doing our part to give teens affordable access to an effective and sustainable option that will keep them leak-free for a lifetime to come."
