Menstrual Cups
I just bought my second menstrual cup! (Diva) cup. I’m super excited to try it out. I am somewhat new to the whole menstrual cup thing but seriously! They are awesome😍 If you are thinking about switching from pads or tampons I think it is definitely worth it. Here are my reasons why. If you have any questions feel free to ask me!
1. I get “diaper rash” from pads because I sweat a lot so they become painful. With a cup I don’t have to worry about rashes.
2. They are healthier for your body than tampons and pads.
3. Feels cleaner than a pad.
4. Does not hurt at all (if you put it in correctly)
5. It’s not full of a bunch of chemicals like some other period products.
6. It lasts up to 12 hours! So if you are on a car trip or on vacation or at work it makes it easy.
7. Easy to clean.
8. More cost efficient. You will save so much in the long run.
9. You aren’t contributing as much to the POLLUTION of the earth!!
10. You don’t have to worry about “running out of” pads or tampons with a cup especially in public places.
11. It comes with a carry bag.
Negatives:
1. It is a little more work to have to wash it rather than throw away a tampon. (But so much better for the earth)
2. It takes a little time to figure out if it is In correctly. If it hurts or is uncomfortable it is not in right. If you “bleed through” it is not in right.
3. upfront cost mine cost $40 upfront (but you save a lot in the long run)
