I want to add to the great advice you already have here. I just wanted you to know that bamboo is both more absorbent than cotton and naturally anti-bacterial. It also comes in fleece as well as velour, and stays soft without tumble drying.
I have a lot of women report to me how some of their unpleasant period time symptoms have simply vanished since using cloth san pro - especially the thrush-like symptoms. I think it's so worth a try.
My advice would be to steer clear of un natural fibres, as they can make you hotter and a better breeding ground for candida.
