What are your favorite benefits of cups?
COST:
Instead of (US) $4-5 a month for disposables, which comes to about $50-60 a year, one $15-50-ish cup can last 5-10 years.
ENVIRONMENT:
The average woman disposes of a large dump-truck full of disposable menstrual products and packaging in the years she has her period. One cup can last 5-10 years. Only one small package to throw away.
DISCREET AND CONVENIENT:
No more return trips with a fresh disposable product. No more taking your purse to the ladies room. No more smuggling a tampon. No more horrified panic that you hadn't replenished your supply of disposables. No need to carry a large supply of disposables if you're away from home for an extended period of time.
CAPACITY:
Most cups hold more than disposable products so they don't need to be attended to as often.

IRREGULAR CYCLES, PERI-MENOPAUSE AND BREAK-THROUGH BLEEDING:
Unlike tampons, menstrual cups can be worn in anticipation of a period or for on-and-off spotting.
CERVICAL MUCUS:
Some use cups to catch their cervical mucus to monitor their fertility.
