U by Kotex Night Defense® Overnight Maxi Pads
U by Kotex® Night Defense® Overnight Maxi Pads are clinically engineered to deliver heavy-absorbency menstrual and light bladder protection for up to 12 hours of continuous wear. Featuring a specialized, plush core architecture, these premium maxi shields are constructed with a 60% larger back catchment profile compared to regular daytime variants, establishing an expansive fluid defense line optimized for flat sleep positions.
At the heart of the pad is the high-capacity Core absorption matrix, which draws fluid surges away from the surface instantly to trap wetness deep within its fibrous structure. The design integrates flexible fabric side wings that lock tightly around the gusset of your underwear to eliminate twisting, while a soft, hypoallergenic cloth-like topsheet maintains optimal temperature and protects sensitive skin from friction. Completely dermatologist-tested and 100% fragrance-free, these thick, cushioned maxi pads provide uncompromised physical security for a distraction-free night of rest.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the specific benefit of a plush Maxi core for overnight wear?
Unlike ultra-thin alternatives that compress super-absorbent gels into a narrow strip, Night Defense® Maxi pads use a thicker, pillowy cellulose core structure. This classic cushioned design provides a broad, stable layer of physical comfort and an expanded pooling volume that many users find more comforting during heavy flows, postpartum recovery, or long sleep cycles.
How do these pads adapt to side sleepers?
When sleeping on your side, fluid can naturally pool along the lateral edges of a pad. The U by Kotex® Night Defense® series counteracts this with unique, pre-contoured side channel barriers paired with secure side fabric wings. These wings anchor the pad firmly to your underwear, preventing it from bunching or shifting and capturing side runoff before it can escape.
Are these pads safe for highly sensitive skin?
Yes. These overnight maxi pads are completely unscented and made without any added perfumes, artificial lotions, or synthetic deodorants. The breathable outer lining and hypoallergenic topsheet work together to let moisture vapor pass through, minimizing heat buildup and keeping skin safe from contact irritation.
