One of the greatest benefits of the menstrual cup is that it can be used for more than five years. But what if you want to lose the cup after two years?
Should you donate your menstrual cup?
No, sadly, you cannot, or, more preferably, you should not. And why is that? Our intimate areas are highly sensitive, especially our vaginas. So, donating a used menstrual cup to someone is a strict NO from our side. Each individual is different, just as each vagina is different. The way the thought of sharing your undergarments give you the creeps, the same way, a menstrual cup too should not be shared.
You must be thinking, if it is safe for you to reuse it after sterilising, why shouldn’t it be used by others? The answer lies in the question itself. Menstrual cups are cleaned and sterilised for your use, just as your undergarments are washed for your use.
However, if you want to buy new menstrual cups and donate them to schoolgirls, college girls, or women in need, you can ABSOLUTELY do that.
Why should you donate menstrual cups?
In India, a lot of adolescent girls drop out of school after they start their periods. According to World Bank data, more than 80% of girls in rural India still believe that our menstrual blood carries harmful substances, and 60% are not comfortable talking about it.
The Floren Menstrual Cup is the way to go about it. The 6–8 hours of protection of the Floren period cup will not only assure hassle-free periods but also give them the comfort of sitting through classes without worrying about the shifting of pads or stains.
