When you first switch to cloth pads, finding the right size might mean some trial and error. One woman's dream pad is another's uncomfortable wedgie. If you notice that your pad seems to crunch the gusset (commonly known as the crotch) of your underwear, the first thing to consider is your comfort. If you pull up your underwear and you're feelin' fine, then you're good to go. Some women find their thighs naturally push their underwear (and pad) into a smaller space. How a cloth pad looks in your panties doesn't always affect the way it feels or works.

However, if your pad crunches your underwear uncomfortably, then we gotta back up a couple steps. This means that you don't have the right size for your underwear or body type. The best way to get pointed in the right direction is by getting a PIMP Prescription. Just answer a couple quick questions and you'll get a customized recommendation.

The biggest culprit for bunched undies are boy-cut panties. This underwear style simply has more fabric down there and requires a wide pad like our Large – even if you're a little lady. If you already have a Large and it's still not doing the trick then try a free Wing Extender. It's a little elastic band with snaps on each end that attach to the snaps on the pad. This will lengthen the wings and make even narrow sizes like Small or Medium work for ladies who need a little more width.
