If Silky Cup (reusable menstrual cup) is so great, why haven’t I heard of it before?

Many companies did not want to be associated with advertising a “menstrual cup.” As well, due to the fact that menstrual cups can last up to a decade, it’s not something women need to buy often, which means less profit overall. Only now are women becoming aware of the ecological damage that disposable feminine hygiene products cause as well as trying to find an alternative to tampons which have a higher risk of TSS. Word of mouth and internet access has now begun to increase awareness of menstrual cups and the benefits of them, making them more and more popular.
