Do they work? As far as I can tell so far yes but I honestly feel a pain would do just as well. They don't extend beyond the point of a regular overnight pad. Are the comfortable? Absolutely not. I'm talking about the *new dream shorts* here. The top rides down and the bottoms roll up 🤦‍♀️ i ordered larger than I normally wear in underwear or bottoms and they're still to SMALL! Also I was going to give them 3 stars because atleast it seems to work however I couldn't figure out how to leave a review on their website or their Facebook. Obviously shady business here. Would not buy again. To expensive for a lack luster product
