If you’re looking for a more eco-friendly and cost-effective menstrual option than disposable pads or tampons, a menstrual cup is an excellent choice. Menstrual cups like those from Cherry Affairs are gaining popularity amongst those consciously working to save the environment as well as those who want to save money. Several questions arise when considering a menstrual cup - What makes a menstrual cup different? Is it comfortable to use? What are the benefits?
If you’re wondering why you should use a menstrual cup, there are many benefits.
First and foremost, it’s way better for the environment. Environmental sustainability is one the many advantages of using a menstrual cup. Compared to pads and tampons, menstrual cups are toxin-free, reusable, and produce no waste. This means you’ll be creating far less environmental impact from your period each month. The period cups sold here are long-lasting and designed for up to 10 years of usage, so you’ll save a ton on period products year after year. Mother earth will thank you.
Second, menstrual cups are much more cost-effective. You won’t have to spend a ton of money buying disposable period products each month. An average menstrual cup would probably cost you more than a box of pads or tampons, but you’ll save in the long run as the cup pays for itself within a few months. The few times you’ll need to purchase a menstrual cup will more than make up for the cost of the pads and tampons you were buying before. Plus, many menstrual cups are designed to last up to 10 years! Bonus: Not having to go out and buy pads or tampons each time you get your period!
Thirdly, menstrual cups are incredibly easy to use. It takes only a few tries to get used to inserting and removing them, and their flexible design ensures a comfortable fit for businesses. Made of medical-grade silicone, menstrual cups are designed to be safe and comfortable. When inserted correctly, they form a comfortable seal and shouldn’t cause any discomfort.
Lastly, menstrual cups are incredibly comfortable. They don't rub against the skin the way pads and tampons do, and they also don’t cause dryness. Now coming to the practical benefits - menstrual cups are designed to collect your flow rather than absorb it like a tampon or pad. This means that you don’t have to worry about dealing with the potential discomfort that can occur when pads become full, since you can leave them in for up to 12 hours before emptying, rinsing, and reinserting. The longest you need to leave a menstrual cup in is 12 hours, so it’s perfect for those busy with their tasks and not worrying about constantly empty it.
