I could not find any specific information on the price and product details of menstrual cups in Bangladesh. However, I can provide general information on menstrual cups from the search results.
Product Details
- Menstrual cups are bell-shaped, reusable, and made of medical-grade silicone, natural rubber, latex, or thermoplastic elastomers.
- They are worn inside the vagina to collect menstrual fluid and create a vacuum seal held in place by the walls of the vagina.
- Menstrual cups come in different sizes, and the size you choose depends on your age, whether you have given birth vaginally, and the heaviness of your flow.
- The average capacity of a menstrual cup is around 20-30 ml, which is more than tampons and pads.
Positive Aspects
- Menstrual cups are budget-friendly and cost-effective as they are reusable and last for at least six months to ten years.
- They are safer than tampons as they collect rather than absorb blood, reducing the risk of toxic shock syndrome (TSS) .
- Menstrual cups are eco-friendly as they reduce waste and are reusable.
- They can be worn for up to 8-12 hours, depending on your flow, and can be used during physical activities like swimming and sports.
- They are odorless and leak-free if inserted properly.
Negative Aspects
- There can be an increased chance of infection if not washed properly.
- Inserting and removing menstrual cups can be challenging for some women.
- Women using intrauterine devices (IUDs) for contraception should take caution as there have been scientific reports of menstrual cups having contributed to dislodging of the IUD.
Ingredients or Materials
