My girlfriend hasn't tried them, and given that they're reusable, she probably won't try them. However, they actually kind of sound like a reusable version of something that my girlfriend has tried called Pantiepads.
Pantiepads (www.pantiepads.com) are basically a disposable panty with a pad attached to them, and I can tell you firsthand from seeing my girlfriend change them in front of me that they work incredibly well and are insanely absorbent. The only real drawback is that they cost a small fortune, and if you don't want to order from their website, you're only other choice in most areas will likely be Amazon. Bed, Bath, and Beyond supposedly carries them in some locations, as do a couple of places in California where the company that makes these is headquartered out of, but as far as I can tell, nobody in this area has them on store shelves.
Disposable or reusable, the "absorbent menstrual panty" actually seems like a pretty cool idea. My girlfriend has said that if Pantiepads weren't so expensive she'd switch to them exclusively instead of relying on traditional pads most of the time.

Oh heck no! $34 per pair? And not even in a high cut? And who wants to be stuck in panties that hold the equivalent of 2 tampons? What a creepy, wet, feeling that would be. I can get at least 5 pairs of panties for that price. Not that I need period panties now. Those panties will wash too.

There is another recent addition in the Phillippines called "Charmee Menstrual Panties", I have a few online friends in the Phillipines and two of them have unbelievably heavy periods so I sent them some of these to try and they work very well and I have the videos to prove it Both these girls sometimes also use Pampers placed inside panties for their period.

Agree with Jada... it's ridiculous Lost in all the marketing and "fad" solutions is the fact that periods are an unavoidable cost, and a disruption to routine. So for me: #1 concern - the less I have to deal with it, the better #2 concern - the less it cost me, the better Frankly, the environment and whether anyone knows I'm on my period really don't enter into any purchasing decisions I make.

Oh wow, I wasn't aware that disposable panties with pads were common in Asia. To the best of my knowledge, PantiePads/UndiePads are the only product of their kind on the market in the United States though. Since you've made me aware of them though, I'm now curious about trying to find a way to add an unopened package of the Japanese "Laurier Shorts Type Napkins" to my collection of unopened "pads." I've heard of Laurier before, but I'm not as familiar with what's available in the Phillipines, so Charmee is completely new to me. I'm actually quite well aware of what unbelievably heavy periods can be like since I date someone who has one, but if possible, I'd love to see those videos that you have. I'd also love to see any videos you might have of them using Pampers placed inside of panties for their periods too. My girlfriend has occasionally used GoodNites, Pampers UnderJams, and even Huggies Pull-Ups if she's been with me and her period has been pretty heavy, and I know I've shared photos of the results before. (It's extremely unlikely that I'll be able to take photos of her actually using them though, otherwise those would have been shared as well.) The "diaper as a pad" thing definitely works when a typical pad won't cut it, and I know that from experience.
