THE DISC
THE DISC
Works similar to a cup, but way better

Your period just got an upgrade: Meet THE DISC – a product born from our own search for the perfect period solution during active days. While our nookees PADS are perfect for everyday comfort, we knew we needed something different for activities like surfing, swimming etc. After trying everything available on the market, from cups that created uncomfortable suction to various alternatives, we finally found what we were looking for.
Unlike menstrual cups that sit vertically and can create suction pressure, THE DISC flows with your body's natural shape, sitting horizontally for a truly comfortable fit. It is inserted like a tampon, but collects rather than absorbs your flow.
No more dealing with complex folding techniques or suction effects – THE DISC slides in smoothly and catches your flow without complications. Whether you're already using our PADS for everyday period care or just starting your sustainable period journey – THE DISC is here to complement your flow during those active moments when you need something different.
How to click with THE DISC:
1: Fold: With clean hands, create a figure 8 shape by gently pinching THE DISC.
2: Insert: Guide THE DISC in horizontally and position it behind your pubic bone. You'll know it's right when you can't feel it anymore.
3: Remove & repeat THE DISC can stay in for up to 8-12 hours. When it's time for a change, hook your finger and gently guide it out. Give it a proper wash, then reinsert. Simple as that.
Before your first click: Clean hands, clean disc - that's the way to start. At the beginning and end of your period, sanitise THE DISC by giving it a 4-5 minute treatment in boiling water (but no longer than 7 minutes). After each use during your bleeding, start with a cold water rinse to keep it looking fresh, then wash with warm water and a mild cleanser. Rinse thoroughly and you're set to use it straight again.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To take care of your nookees, we recommend the following treatment:
THE PANTY:
- 40°C (in a laundry net)
- don't use softener or bleach
- hang dry
- wash before first use
THE PAD:
- 60°C (in a laundry net)
- don't use softener or bleach
- hang dry
- wash before first use
THE POUCH:
- 40°C
- don't use softener or bleach
- hang dry
- wash before first use
As our fabrics are just rad, you could wash THE PADS even with 95*C. But a.) you don't need to wash them that hot and b.) it's not good for the environment. So we personally prefer to rinse THE PADS in cold water after use. On laundry day nookees wander into the machine and get tumbled with the rest of any clothes. Hang them dry (with the hanger of THE POUCH) and use them again. And again. And again…

Are nookees organic?
Want to learn more...nookees THE PADS are made out of 100% organic cotton. The fibre of the lyocel we use for THE PANTIES is made out of cellulose, a natural component of wood. It’s biodegradable and at the end of its life cycle, the fibers can re-enter the eco-system.
-
Why do you use snap buttons?
... and moreBecause they hold nookees PADS right and tight on the spot where they belong. Believe us, we tried so many different versions on how to stick nookees pads into THE PANTY. And the snap buttons we chose are definitely the safest ones to use.
-
Combine it
