vaginapaginaOddly enough, I couldn't find anything in the archives about bloodstains...
Most of the time, my period doesn't annoy me too badly (besides the cramping and the occasional really bad timing), but this time I started overnight. This morning, I woke up to find that the crotch of my poor Hello Kitty panties had been soaked through with blood. Usually, that only happens sometime in the middle of my period, when I didn't use a big enough pad- but then I have underwear I really don't care about and I just throw it away.
But I didn't want to do that with these, of course, and I also didn't want to throw them in the laundry all bloody (I still live at home) so I got online to look up bloodstain removal. The best one I could find was to use Hydrogen Peroxide. I don't know why I didn't think of this myself- I've used the stuff on small wounds before.
I had to pour it on the stain a couple of times, but it did come out quite well. For those who want to try it, pour the chemical on the bloodstain and pat the foamy stuff it makes off with a dry washcloth. After I got it out of the panties, the washcloth had blood on it, so I washed that in the sink with cold water and soap before throwing it in the laundry basket.
So HOORAY FOR HYDROGEN PEROXIDE! It will save your panties.
