Probiotic technology in feminine hygiene is a relatively new category. The premise: sanitary products in direct contact with the vulvar microbiome can either disrupt it (most synthetic pads do) or support it (probiotic-infused ones aim to). Triple ProBio is one of the leading brands in this space, made in Australia 🇦🇺.
How probiotic-infused pads work
- Lactobacillus strains embedded in the absorbent layer
- Activated by warmth and moisture
- Helps maintain the natural vaginal pH (around 4.5)
- Reduces odour-producing bacterial overgrowth
What Triple ProBio Pads are made from
- Hypoallergenic top layer
- Plant-based core with probiotic infusion
- No fragrance, no chlorine bleaching
- Breathable bottom layer
Who they're best for
- Women with sensitive skin
- Recurrent yeast infections or BV
- Those who notice irritation from conventional pads
- Anyone optimising vulvar microbiome health
Pads vs Pants
The brand also offers Sanitary Pants for overnight or heavy-flow days, with the same probiotic technology.
