The menstrual cycle is the hormonal process a woman’s body goes through each month to prepare for a possible pregnancy. Regular menstrual periods in the years between puberty and menopause are usually a sign that your body is working normally. Menstruation the one time of the month that most girls and women dread, that most women and girls don’t want but its absence is also dangerous. In every month, the number of visits to bathroom increases, while the prospect of wearing white has been matter of fear. Hey girls, it just has been a matter of fear. Don’t worry because tampon and menstrual cup is made for you. On the other side, in developing countries like Nepal, most girls and women struggle to buy sanitary pads not only due to widespread poverty but also due to lack of awareness. So, buying tampon and menstrual cup is beyond imagination. Bitter truth is, when a cycle begins, they have to miss school due to bleeding and stains in skirts or paints. This menstrual cup is a feminine hygiene product similar to sanitary pads. The cup needs to be boiled before use (and cooled down, obviously), inserted, emptied after it becomes full (after up to 12 hours), washed, and then reinserted. Its greatest appeal lies in being reusable, due to being made of medical grade silicone, and as a plus point, it’s also friendly to the environment. Tampons are a mass of absorbent that are designed to be easily inserted into vagina during period. Tampons help to absorb the menstrual blood. If the tampon is inserted correctly once, it expands as it soaks up menstrual blood. In our country most of the girls are afraid of using menstrual cup and tampon just because of fear of virginity. The length of vagina is about 10 cm so, it is sure that these sanitary materials don’t penetrate vagina on the inner part. Most of the girls ear of remaining tampon and cup inside vagina. There is very less chance of these products remaining in the vagina. If in case it happens , one can remove from doctors help. These materials are easier than other and can be cheap in long run of time. These are modern means of sanitary materials to make easy for girl during period. Tampon and menstrual cup are mostly used by sports women. Dear girls, be sure tampon and menstrual cup wont betray your virginity. Feel free, use easily and make yourself healthy.
