Why Switch to Reusable Period Products in 2025?

By

After news broke in 2024 about toxic ingredients in tampons, it opened a bigger conversation on why many people should make the switch to period cups, menstrual discs, and/or leakproof underwear. Here are four reasons why making the switch to a reusable period product is the perfect 2025 New Years Resolution:


  1. Save Money on Your Period Routine:
    Did you know the average person uses roughly 11,000 disposable period products in their lifetime? By swapping tampons and pads for reusable options like a period cup or disc, you’ll save hundreds of dollars within just a few years. 

  2. Say Goodbye to Period and Incontinence Leaks and Odors:
    Disposable leakproof products often leave you worrying about leaks or that distinctive “period” or “urine smell.” Reusable options like period panties keep you feeling dry, fresh, and comfortable throughout the day, no matter the leaks that come your way.

  3. Reduce Waste and Help the Planet:
    Each year, over 20 billion menstrual and leakproof products end up in landfills in the U.S. alone. Reusable menstrual discs, cups, and leakproof panties drastically cut down on this waste.


Choose Safer, Healthier Period Products


Choose a cup that’s made of 100% medical-grade silicone and free of harmful chemicals like BPA, latex, or toxins. Unlike tampons, which can disrupt your body’s natural pH-balance, reusable menstrual cups are biocompatible and gentle on your body.

Everyone’s anatomy is uniquely different. For some period cup users, the stem is fully within the vaginal canal, and for others, the stem is partially or fully sticking out of the vagina and labia; all scenarios are perfectly normal. If you find your stem is hanging down more than you’d like or causing you discomfort, just know you can cut the stem on your menstrual cup . What is the Stem on Your Period Cup For? Not to get confused with a pull tab, the stem on your menstrual cup is designed to help locate the cup in order to break the seal, but not everyone needs the stem to help locate their cup — but it sure is a nice feature!
