FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Really love these. They've provided good pelvic support as well as blood pooling support for POTS. I appreciate I can wear them underneath normal clothes. Just wish they had much stronger compression options for someone who likes really strong compression, and came in other colours!
I felt supported and secure post birth with the 8 inch recovery shorts
I purchased 5" PP support shorts and briefs and really recommend them post C-section. I've been wearing them for about a month now, and they provide firm but comfortable support without aggravating the incision site. Sizing chart and instructions were accurate and I began wearing them about one week PP. They have funny little straps to help to pull them up but I wouldn't use them because they tend to snap. Just shimmy into them!
I like how the gusset is detached (sort of floating) so that you can more easily use a pad/liner if needed. Briefs are great under loose, comfy shorts and the shorts look great under a long button-down shirt.
I am struggling big time with pelvic pain in the middle of my pregnancy. These shorts have been my best friend. Giving me much needed support when I am shuffling around in pain. I would recommend them. They are made really well. Supportive without being restrictive. Sizing was spot on. I wear them on their own or underneath clothing.
Desperate for some relief from my prolapse whilst I await a specialist appointment I actually bought the LBL Recovery as the Pro Support wasn't available in my size. I have a fairly advanced prolapse and I am amazed at the lift it provides to enable me to exercise or be on my feet all day. An issue I have is the waistline is more elasticised isn't the best fit for my stomach and rolls after a short time wearing it. This can become quite tight and uncomfortable if I am out and unable to constantly adjust it. It is a sacrifice I am willing to pay for the benefit of supporting my prolapse. Perhaps a wider band at the top would suit me better. I also wear a pair of my usual cotton briefs underneath as the sling texture feels a bit too coarse on my skin. Maybe just a menopausal thing.
