News Alerts 🚨
Women make fewer mistakes and have better mental agility while on their period despite feeling worse than at any other time during their menstrual cycle.

The research, conducted by the UCL Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health (ISEH), found that women’s reaction times, accuracy and attention to detail were heightened while menstruating, challenging current hypotheses regarding how women perform in sports during their period.

Are you one for the performance when you are on your period? Have you noticed or achieved your PB when doing sports?

Repost:

Not sure how our period proof swimwear works?
Doubtful that it will hold your period flow in the water? Feeling apprehensive about that moment when you climb out of the pool...
We hear you.

Here’s how it works to absorb your flow:

WUKA period swimwear is made with a super magical gusset, made up of 3 layers.
The first layer sits next to your skin, so is super soft and breathable. The second layer is highly absorbent, so locks in the blood away from your body and keeps it there- up to 3 tampons worth.
The final layer is water repellent, preventing pool or sea water from entering the gusset and thus preventing leaks too. Voila!

How many pairs of period pants do you need per cycle- same for your daughter?

How does waterproof swimwear actually work?

This must be one of the most asked question here at WUKA esp during summer months. So here I explain to you and below are some chat GPT using various analogy to explain. Which one do you prefer?

WUKA swimwear features a built in absorbent gusset made of three unique layers. The breathable top layer is designed to feel soft and comfortable to the touch as it sits closest to to your skin. The second layer is highly-absorbent and moisture wicking, helping to absorb up to 3 tampons worth of blood. Lastly the final or outer fabric is aquaphobic meaning it is water repellent which prevents water from entering the gusset and protects against leaks. While it is safe to swim in period swimwear on your periods, we suggest using a menstrual cup or other products as backup on your heavy flow days.

Chat GPT version
Picture WUKA swimwear as a sandwich with layers of protection. The absorbent gusset is like the filling, sandwiched between two layers of bread. The top layer is like a soft, fluffy bun, providing comfort against your skin. The middle layer is like a thick layer of absorbent material, ready to soak up any liquid that comes its way. And the outer layer is like a waterproof crust, keeping water from seeping in and causing leaks. So, even when you’re swimming, your sandwich of protection keeps you dry and worry-free.

Chat GPT version 2
Imagine WUKA swimwear as a superhero outfit with layers of protection. The absorbent gusset is like a bulletproof vest, with three layers to shield you from leaks. The first layer is like a soft, comfortable undershirt. The second layer is like a super-absorbent sponge, ready to soak up any liquid. And the outer layer is like a water-resistant cape, keeping water out and leaks at bay. So, even while you’re diving into the pool, your superhero swimwear keeps you safe and dry
