5 reasons why you should change to menstrual cups soon.
1. It is Eco-friendly.
Menstrual cups are reusable for up to 5 years depending on the use. Imagine all of the disposable menstrual products you can save on that amount of time! According to statistics, 15 pieces of tampons and 18 disposable pads are used in average on each menstrual cycle.
2. It makes sense financially.
Each cup costs $20-$40 and you will only need one cup in every 5 years. You can skip the feminine products aisle on your local grocery store!
3. Menstrual cups are comfortable.
Yes, contrary to the popular belief, most women do not feel anything when wearing their menstrual cup. The cup may seem intimidating at first but once you get the grip of it, you will never go back to disposable feminine products!
4. It reduces period pain and rashes.
Menstrual cups are usually made of medical grade silicone. This material is non-absorbent, that is why it can be worn for up to 12 hours without leaks. Unlike tampons, it has not been proven to cause toxic shock syndrome. In addition, you won’t have to worry about rashes caused by menstrual pads.
