Periods can be a pain, but having a menstrual cup as your best friend can make all the difference. Not only are they environmentally friendly, but they also save you money in the long run and can be worn for up to 12 hours at a time.

1 Your wallet will thank you! - You pay a one-time price for a reusable menstrual cup, unlike tampons or pads, which have to be continually bought and can cost up to Rs 100000 for 10 years.

2 Collects more flow - A menstrual cup can hold up to 30ml of liquid, roughly twice the amount of a super-absorbent tampon or pad.

3 You can leave it in for 12 hours - Pads /Tampons need to be changed every 4 to 6 hours, depending on your flow.

4 No strings or flaps - For those who use tampons or pads, you're familiar with the pesky strings/flaps and the rashes that come along with them.

5 A happier, healthier vagina - They don't contain harmful chemicals or bleaches that some pads/tampons contain.
The medical-grade silicone in menstrual cups doesn't react with your vagina's natural flora, maintaining a healthy environment down there.

6 Less chance of leaks - When inserted correctly in the vagina, a menstrual cup should pop open to create a seal that keeps your flow from leaking out.

7 Travel more easily - Traveling with a menstrual cup means extra space in your luggage and more peace of mind while on vacation.

8 Reduces your carbon footprint - Tampons, pads, and panty liners along with their packaging and individual wrapping generate more than 200,000 tonnes of waste per year, and they all contain plastic - in fact, pads are around 90% plastic!

Say goodbye to constantly buying and carrying around tampons and pads, and hello to freedom and comfort with a menstrual cup. Make the switch and see for yourself why it's a game-changer.
