Did you know? A typical woman uses 10,000 sanitary towels and tampons in her life. As well as the health risks associated with tampons, the contribution to landfill is enormous. Aqua Viva Health thinks there's a better alternative!

A Mooncup is a re-usable menstrual cup that is made from medical grade non-allergic soft silicone rubber. It is worn internally like a tampon but collects rather than absorbs menstrual fluid. It can safely be used overnight and is great for all sports, swimming and travelling.

Unlike tampons and sanitary towels, a Mooncup contains no bleaches, deodorisers or absorbency gels, doesn't interfere with your vaginal environment, and is not associated with toxic shock syndrome. It's suitable whether you have normal or sensitive skin, thrush, eczema, allergies or any other condition made worse by tampons. AND because its reusable, you don't need to carry bulky spares.

For less than £20 delivered to your door, it's certainly worth trying!
