My daughter started her period a lot earlier than we thought she would. However, she tried to hide it and washed her jeans - only to find that the stain was still there. Normally I wouldn't worry about the jeans, but these were brand new and very expensive. Is there any way I can get this set in stain out?

There is a product called "e_z wash" that works very well. It is a little expensive and I used to have to get it at the nurse supply store because it works so well on blood stains. It's available now at High end grocery stores. But you need to apply it and rub it in with a toothbrush and let it sit.. Then wash in cold water and hang to dry. The dryer heat does set in stains but wait and see how the first application works after you wash in the washing machine and then maybe try it one more time. Or another idea comes to mind.... take them to the dry cleaners. they have special spotter that can do amazing things, I worked in a D/C for 3 years and couldn't believe some of the things they could get out. It might be 3 or 4 $'s but money well spent if they can get it out of the jeans.. Good Luck

get an old brush--pour some hydrogen peroxide on the blood stains--see if brushing breaks down the stain--it is probably set in by now but the peroxide is a nice bubbly cleaner of blood when it first is detected and" before" the wash cycle. Oh --just buy new ones---this stuff just happens and sometimes you just have to do what you have to do. good luck

Soak the jeans in cold water, remove from the water and add salt. Leave like this for 1/2 hr or more, The wash them in your machine ,inside out.30ºc or 40ºc normal wash program

Next time don't put it in hot water as that sets it. You can still try Hydrogen Peroxide and let it sit (it will bubble and fizz, just like when you put it on a cut). Then rinse with cold water and put soap on it and scrub it back and forth against each other so that it forms a lather. Rinse with cold water and repeat until stain is removed.

Have you tried hydrogen peroxide or OxyClean poltice? Going to be tough if the jeans went thru the dryer. There's a new product out I haven't tried yet, especially for removing set in stains.....sorry don't remember the name. Just noticed ads the other day.

mix pure lemon juice and little bit bleach together in water.leave the jeans around 3 hrs in that mixed water.after 3 hrs do hand wash with a brush on the particular spot.and,u can try hydrogen peroxide too.

how much were these jeans????are they gold plated...this is part of your daughters growing up....don't let her put on some jeans that she knows what happened in...will give her a complex about that pair...I'm sure your daughter is worth more to you than a pair of jeans....give the girl a break,growing up is hard enough without this.....i wish you and family well..

good old fashioned salt will remove blood a treat and won't cost either! hoping you have some in the cupboard of course :)
