One cup for every cup
Lindex and MonthlyCup are helping women together. For every menstrual cup sold at lindex.com or in selected Lindex stores, one cup is donated to female textile workers in need of sanitary protection. Your freedom will give another woman freedom. Thank you for helping us in making a difference.
The MonthlyCup is an easy-to-wear, small foldable and reusable device made in Sweden from medical grade silicone. It collects your menstrual blood rather than absorbing it and most importantly, it gives you freedom to do what you want when you want. The cups are designed for long-term use, and they are reusable which means leaving less of a waste to clog up landfills and fewer trees are sacrificed to make paper and plastic-based alternatives. Your vaginal PH and beneficial bacteria will also stay in place since the cup will respect your delicate and natural balance.
And the list of good things continues. There will be fewer times you need to go and buy new hygiene protection and there will be more time between changes. Tampons need to be replaced every four to eight hours. With the cup you can go up to 12 hours without having to empty it. How great is that?
