@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 :)
@CorvidCrone I don't really care about the stains either -- but I feel as though the smell is related and I'm not super certain of the inner materials of the underwear, which makes me more wary of leaving them to dry out before washing. But saying that, I definitely don't feel like doing that would make me or you a laundry goblin, haha!
@Bette That is interesting, I reckon I can get it here too, seems like it's available with mail order but if I go into the supermarket and check the ingredients I'll bet it's there too. Thanks!
@secretsloth I reckon I can probably get some from the pharmacy... will give it a go. I'm not so worried about the stains as I am about the smell (which, to be fair, is not super offensive, but I can smell it, yk) but as you say, if the stain is removed, the smell should hopefully go too!
@cynthiarose This is a really good idea -- I couldn't find any this morning but I'm heading to my regular supermarket this week so will try there. Thank you!

What exactly is this? Looks like a kind of Blackberry🤔
My phone app gives me many different suggestions 😕

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

Israel committing ‘perfect crime’ with impunity in Gaza under protection of US

Israel was committing the “perfect crime” under the watch of the international community, as support from the US was allowing it to act with impunity in Gaza.

“If it was not for US support, I believe this war would have ended a long time ago.”

“This is sadly a very well-coordinated war with the US, and both Israel’s and the US’s interests are intertwined.”
