TRY SOMETHING NEW THIS MONTH – MENSTRUAL CUPS

For the majority of women the ‘time of the month’ does not rank highly on the list of why we enjoy being the fairer sex.

However, our period is unavoidable and we like to endure it with as little thought and fuss as possible. For this reason, the majority of women make an unquestioned choice to use either disposable tampons or sanitary towels.

In fact, we buy more than 3 billion disposable sanitary protection items each year. Tampons account for approximately 37% of the sanitary market, whilst towels and panty liners account for around 46% and around 17% respectively with reusable sanitary products currently accounting for around 1%*.

However, if this choice were questioned, it would become apparent that tampons and sanitary towels are not the perfect solution.
There are healthier, reusable alternatives; natural sponge, cloth pads and the most widely used are menstrual cups.  Menstrual cups have been around since the 1930’s and are therefore a tried and tested alternative to tampons.

A leading brand is Femmecup menstrual cup; soft, reusable and worn internally just like a tampon, except it collects menstrual flow instead of absorbing it. It forms a gentle seal with the vaginal walls and any flow is contained in the cup.

The benefits are plentiful and around 1% of women in the UK now own one.
There are many significant advantages of using Femmecup; unlike a tampon, a cup collects rather than absorbs the menstrual flow, meaning they have never been linked to Toxic Shock Syndrome.  They contain no harmful chemicals, absorbency gels, bleaches or toxins like some disposable products do.

The environmental benefits of reusable products are also huge.  Saving the planet is everyone’s responsibility and shocking statistics have been released concerning the amount of waste disposable sanitary items cause, further highlighting the need for the female population to use eco-friendly alternatives. Each woman in the UK uses an estimated 11,000 tampons in their lifetime and approximately 8 million tampons end up in the UK sewage system each year.

In contrast; Femmecup lasts for at least five years and is made from medical grade silicone, derived from silica; one of the most abundant materials on Earth.
Femmecup is also very convenient and ultra discreet; anyone that has experienced the cliché of a tampon falling to the floor as you try to juggle your purse, handbag and mobile phone, will be pleased to know the situation can be avoided by using Femmecup instead.

It can be worn for up to 12 hours, day or night, so it requires far less attention than disposable products.  Menstrual cups can also be worn for all types of exercise and whilst swimming with no embarrassing strings or wings to worry about and no dryness or irritation either.

Many users also claim that their cup has eased their menstrual cramps.
