Why do we trust menstrual swimsuits more at the drugstore?

Ah, the dilemma of period swimwear ! If you are like me, you have probably hesitated between ordering your period swimwear online or going to buy it at the local pharmacy. Let's talk about it.

Why choose the pharmacy? Well, it's simple: guaranteed quality!

Pharmacies don’t joke about quality. Before a product hits the shelves, including menstrual swimsuits, they are carefully selected. Quality is therefore largely ensured.

Especially since pharmacies only sell products from reputable brands. That eliminates a lot of doubts, right? We automatically cross off dubious brands from the other side of the world.

Then, there is expert advice. Let's admit it, it is reassuring to be able to ask a pharmacist for advice. They are health professionals, and they know what they are talking about.

And let's not forget proximity and accessibility. The local pharmacy is always there, ready to welcome us. So, if you need Swimwear immediately, there's no question: rush to the nearest pharmacy to buy your period swimwear.

In short, buy period swimwear in a pharmacy, it means choosing peace of mind. You know you are making the right choice, and that is priceless. 🌟

But it's a bit too good to be true to think that you can go buy your new Swimwear right now, at your neighborhood pharmacy.

Indeed, I don’t know what time you will read this article, but if it’s after 8 p.m., it will be difficult for you to go to the pharmacy.. 😅

And that’s not the only problem. Although half of the products offered in pharmacies are aimed at women, it is still hard to find menstrual panties in some. So menstrual swimsuits might not be available just yet…

Many small pharmacies do not have menstrual swimsuits and for the few that already offer them to their customers, the choice of brands, sizes, and models can quickly be limited.

So what about online?

What about swimsuits bought online? Are they all poor quality or are there gems waiting for us?

Buy period swimwear online may seem risky at first glance, but do we really have a choice? Online stores are often the only solution when you can’t buy them at a pharmacy. Because you won’t find them in a country supermarket… But let’s keep hope, in a few years, we might find this hygienic revolution everywhere. 👙

It's true that the internet is full of surprises. You'll find both brands that want to make a difference for women, and much less scrupulous 'brands' that try to take advantage of you... So let's demystify this to know how to confidently choose your period swimwear online.

When you visit a site that offers menstrual swimsuits, first check the brand selling them. If it is present on other well-known sites in France, such as Décathlon, it means it is a real brand you can trust.

Likewise, if the site has no customer reviews under the products, run away! Okay, we tend to speak up more when things go wrong… So let’s be lenient, but a site without any reviews on any product or only flattering reviews should raise a red flag.

And what about the advantages of real online menstrual swimsuit stores?

Brands specializing in menstrual swimsuits offer a wide variety of models, colors, and sizes. So you can easily find a swimsuit that exactly matches your tastes and needs.

Often, online prices are more attractive. Promotions, promo codes, and sales almost all year round make your online purchases much more advantageous than those you could make in a pharmacy, often at full price. 💸

And thanks to the choice, availability of sizes and brands, you will definitely find your period swimwear for this summer.


In conclusion, buy period swimwear online or in a pharmacy, it’s not the same at all! But due to lack of recognition, menstrual swimsuits are not yet available in all pharmacies in France.

But fortunately, at Sorio, we're trying to change that! Little by little, we're arriving in some pharmacies in France (yes, that's our first period swimwear in a pharmacy on the article's thumbnail, we're so proud). But while we're working on getting into the pharmacy near you, you can order our period swimwear 👉 here 👈
