Are Period Underwear FSA Eligible?

Yes — and Here's Why It Matters for B2B Buyers

At Lynmiss, we were pleased to learn that period underwear is now eligible for FSA and HSA reimbursement in the U.S. This is not only a win for consumers—it’s also a significant opportunity for retailers, wholesalers, and DTC brands in the menstrual care market.

What Is FSA and Why Does It Matter?

FSA (Flexible Spending Account) and HSA (Health Savings Account) programs allow U.S. employees to set aside pre-tax income for qualified medical expenses. With recent changes to the law, products like tampons, pads, and now reusable period underwear are covered.

That means shoppers can now use pre-tax dollars to purchase sustainable period solutions, including washable, leak-proof underwear.

The Good News: Period Underwear Is FSA/HSA Eligible

The IRS has updated its list of eligible medical expenses under Code 213(d), now recognizing period underwear as a legitimate health expense.

This update opens the door for:

• Increased affordability for consumers

• Expanded product categories for retailers

• Greater demand for high-quality, certified products

What This Means for Retailers and Buyers

More Women Can Afford Reusable Period Care

Cost has long been a barrier to access for sustainable menstrual products. FSA eligibility significantly lowers that barrier, giving more women—especially students, professionals, and low-income consumers—access to reusable solutions.

B2B Opportunities Are Expanding

With more consumers seeking out FSA-eligible period care, now is the ideal time for B2B buyers to:

• Introduce eco-friendly menstrual underwear into their product lines

• Highlight products as FSA/HSA eligible

• Work with trusted suppliers to meet compliance standards
