Sometimes the cheaper option turns out more expensive!

Some intimate hygiene products such as tampons or pads are cheaper when compared directly to the cost of menstrual cups. However, it has been proved that the symptoms associated with Toxic Shock Syndrome are related to the regular use of tampons and pads because of its materials, chemicals, and ingredients of questionable origin.

Besides, a menstruating body can use 264 tampons or pads per year, equivalent to a total of 15,960 tampons and pads for almost 40 years that its waste ends up in seas and landfills whose toxic fluids seep into the land for several decades. This same number of tampons are those that are worth around 7,980 euros during all the menstruating life.
