4 Reasons to Use Reusable Period Care Instead of Single-Use Products
Have you ever felt a pang of guilt as you dispose of a single-use period care product, only to unwrap another single-use period care product? A menstrual cup, a pair of leakproof underwear, or even a combination of both can help you experience a much more comfortable, sustainable, and worry-free period overall.

Have you ever felt a pang of guilt as you dispose of a single-use period care product, only to unwrap another single-use period care product? It adds up to a lot of period care waste—and expense. The fact of the matter is that reusable period care is looking better every time you learn more about it. A menstrual cup, a pair of leakproof underwear, or even a combination of both can help you experience a much more hygienic and worry-free period overall.

Reduced Period Waste

In one sense, reusable period care products are better for the environment. Menstrual cups and leakproof underwear are reusable and sustainable. They help you reduce period waste and avoid contributing to the billions of period products thrown in landfills and oceans annually. A cup for period days is an excellent alternative to help divert waste and save money. It’s a little cup with a big impact.

Worry-Free Bathroom Breaks

When you wear a menstrual cup or leakproof underwear, you also don’t have to worry about carrying around tampons or tucking a pad into your back pocket for every bathroom break. You don’t have to remove, dispose of, or insert anything in a public bathroom, either. Menstrual cups can stay inserted for a quick, hassle-free, hygienic bathroom break.

Leakproof and Vagina-Friendly

On top of everything else, you no longer have to deal with leakage leading to a tampon change or another pair of period-stained underwear in the trash. Reusable menstrual cups and leakproof underwear can help save the planet and your pants. While the cup collects—rather than absorbs—your flow, leakproof underwear has moisture-wicking and absorbing material sewn into a comfortable and thin gusset for clean, leakproof period confidence. You might have felt dry or uncomfortable using tampons and pads in the past, but menstrual cups and leakproof underwear prioritize comfort and effectiveness.

Bacteria-Busting Period Cup Wash

Specially formulated cup washes (ideally from the same company as your cup) can help clean your cup and maintain vaginal pH levels. You can wash away bacteria, which can cause odor and other discomforts, and protect your skin from residues and irritants. A paraben-free cup wash helps medical-grade silicone cups stay soft, clean, and damage-free for up to 10 years (which is how long a well-made and cared for menstrual cup can last).

Sustainable period care is critical as people work to improve their environment and eliminate unnecessary waste. Beyond being eco-friendly, menstrual cups and leakproof period underwear are a healthy, hygienic way to care for your body during every cycle.
