How do i get menstrual blood out of already washed 100% cotton?

Question

I soaked it in hot water with nappysan (Because hot water is more effective than cold apparently) which I now think was a bad idea. then machine washed it, I always do a cold wash, always.

I can't bleach it cuz it's pink and has patterns on it.

so does anyone have any interesting ideas?

Answer 1

NEVER EVER wash blood out with hot water!  It sets the stain.

Answer 2

throw them away and get some new ones or put them in your period panty drawer the drawer you only wear when you are on your period

Answer 3

Try Tide with bleach alternative. Pour the detergent right on the spot.....let it sit and soak over night. Wash it in cold water the next morning.

Answer 4

soak it in  a strong oxyclean solution for a few hours, then throw it in the washing machine as normal.

Answer 5

Period blood should come off easily enough, warm water and vanish spray for stains should do the job xx

Answer 6

cold water and use a bleach pen if white undies(then wash after it has set in for awhile), if colored use clorox for colors when u was them. Also peroxide works great.

Answer 7

Hydrogen peroxide all the way!

Answer 8

im pretty sure cold water works for me.

Answer 9

Use meat tenderizer on it! It's a kinda odd idea, but it denatures the proteins, and it works, seriously. Leave it with the tenderizer for 10-20 min. and then soak in cold water..... "Ganzo" works if even that doesn't (but it will work, trust me)
