This is a Menstrual Cup… this Menstrual cup is very new to Cyprus, but it is a convenient, safe and eco-friendly alternative to tampons and sanitary pads. Forget your Always Pads and toxic tampons!!! You really need to get this.
Menstrual cups offer an end to the waste, discomfort and expense of disposable sanitary protection.
They are made of soft medical grade silicone, are latex-free and contain no dyes, BPA, toxins or bleaches. I love them because they are awesome for women with sensitive skin.
Did you know that tampons can cause dryness and leave fibers behind??
In addition, on average, one woman will use over 11,000 tampons or pads in their lifetime, which will end up in landfill or in the sea.
Minimizing waste means reducing pollution and this has a positive effect on you and the world around you.
170,000 plastic tampon applicators were found along US coastlines in a single year, and these will take around 500 years to break down. That is a lot of waste, for a long time. So lets try keep away from tampons and sanitary pads.
The cotton in tampons is often treated with pesticides, and the materials are bleached or perfumed. These chemicals can pollute the land and waterways where they end up, and are also unhealthy for your body.
Menstrual cups are worn, washed and reused – no daily disposal, no packaging and a much more positive impact on the environment. Switching from tampons or pads to menstrual cups also gives you some healthy body benefits.
Once you get a chance to use it, please do share your thoughts. I know you will be amazed.
