8 Reasons Menstrual Cups are Gaining Popularity in the Philippines

menstrual-cups_H

Ladies, behold the new trend that will help you feel lighter, and less like a monster, during “those (cursed) days.”

We all know that icky feeling once you’re on the dot–the constant period leak checking, the mood swings, that hungry for everything and mad at everyone feels all at the same time. Now to tone down those feels, menstrual cups are here to save the day and change your period week for the better.

Aside from the fact that it’s easier to use, here are 8 more reasons why you should catch on and give your ladypart all the comfort it needs during your red days:

8. There are colors to choose from!

On Wednesdays, you wear pink.

7. They’re made to fit.

It suits every woman.

6. They’re healthier for your ladyparts.

Menstrual cups are free from chemicals, bleach or fibers that are usually found in pads and tampons that can cause sensitive or allergic reactions.

5. Less leaks!

The cup-like structure that serves as a basin that collects your period. These babies = less leaks and less hassle.

4. You don’t need to change as often.

Yep, that’s right. You don’t need to change it as much as you change tampons or pads. One cup can hold three times more than a tampon can.

3. They’re much more comfortable.

No more constant bathroom checks, no ask-a-friend-to-see-a-leak whispers, no itch or rash, and no more stiff sleeping positions. Hallelujah!

2. They’re so much better for the environment.

All you need to do is empty and wash it every four to eight hours and it’s good to go again!

1. Cheaper in the long run

Instead of keeping a stash of tampons or pads for one whole year, you can buy one cup (or two) for all your periods. It sure saves a lot of money and panic-buying time spent in the supermarket.

Say goodbye to the hassle, ladies. These cups are your new period BFFs. Want to know where to get it, pronto? Check out MeLuna and DivaCup.
