No, if you follow our care instructions, your Yoni underwear shouldn’t smell. However, if you feel they need a little bit of extra love or they might be smelling a bit musty if stored before fully dry, try soaking in vinegar. Put 1 cup of vinegar in a clean sink or bowl and add in 2 cups of water. Let your underwear soak for 15 to 30 minutes. Then toss them in the washing machine as usual. 

Treat Yoni PPU like any other delicate garmet you love! When washed with care, your Period Proof Underwear will maintain their super-absorbent functionality for approximately 2 years or even longer.
