6 Reasons to Try the Mooncup

6 Reasons to Try the Mooncup - Sh! Women's Store

Like many of our customers, we are are huge fans of the Mooncup. Here are 6 reasons why we think you should try using a Mooncup too:

6 reasons to try a Mooncup

1. The Mooncup is convenient.

  • The Mooncup can safely be used overnight
  • It's ideal for swimming and exercise, or a day at the spa
  • A period cup needs emptying less often than you would replace tampons or pads
  • It's really convenient for travelling and long journeys

2. The Mooncup is comfortable.

Inserted correctly, a Mooncup is comfortable and can’t be felt inside the vagina. The cup is made from non-absorbent material, so won't cause vaginal dryness.

3. The Mooncup is safe.

The Mooncup is made from medical grade silicone, free from latex and phthalates. This means it's unlikley you'll have an allergic reaction to using a Mooncup. 

4. The Mooncup saves money.

You only need one Monncup, as the cup lasts for years. The cost of one cup is far less than the average woman or vulva-owner spends in six months on disposable sanitary products.

5. The Mooncup is healthy.

The Mooncup collects rather than absorbs, allowing for a healthy vaginal environment. By choosing a period cup, you are eliminating vaginal contact with pesticides, chemicals and bleaches.

6. The Mooncup is eco-friendly.

1 (one) woman or vulva-owner typically uses 10.000 tampons and pads in a lifetime. That's a whopping 4 million sanitary products flushed away every day!
