Period-having peeps, how do you deep clean your period underwear? We've a few different brands and we obviously rinse them out and wash them as soon as we take them off but they don't smell as clean as I would like. Online advice seems to advocate bleach or hydrogen peroxide which seems like it would have a negative impact on the materials. I've seen one suggestion for baking soda, borax and laundry powder which sounds more friendly but am open to other suggestions

I’m way past that type of scenario & period underwear was barely a thing way back when. Still my thoughts went to when my kids were in nappies & we all used a soaking bucket & napisan - nappies could get pretty damned messy & that worked.
@feather1952 I do have a tub of napisan (for a kid's white shirts for work -- terrible idea if you ask me, but restaurants will be restaurants) but I don't know how they'll go with the internals of the period underwear? But I may try it as a last resort on one of them if the other ideas don't work. Thank you :)
