Thank You for posting about the menstrual cup. I have google translated your post for English speakers. I first learned about these maybe 20 years ago, from a woman doctor who knew I was about to go trekking in the Himalayas. The system worked fabulously well; cup the blood, rinse out in a spring, re-insert. Brilliant. Thank You so much for posting!! [English translation of this post appears below next paragraph].

Danke, dass Sie über die Menstruationstasse geschrieben haben. Ich habe Google Ihren Beitrag für Englischsprachige übersetzt. Ich erfuhr das erst vor 20 Jahren, von einer Ärztin, die wusste, dass ich im Himalaya wandern gehen würde. Das System hat fabelhaft funktioniert; Nimm das Blut in eine Feder, spüle es aus und setze es wieder ein. Brillant. Vielen Dank für das Posten !!

Translation: Hello dear Steemians, Today I dedicate myself to a women's topic and the menstrual cup.
Some of you probably already know or have heard about it. But maybe there are some of you who do not know this alternative method.
I heard about it for the first time about 6 years ago and was totally taken with the idea. In a few moments, I got a menstrual cup and then tried it softer. I must confess, I had some difficulties in getting started and was a bit disappointed at first, until I realized that it's not up to the cup, but to me! 😉 Maybe it was also because it was only a few months after the delivery of my 1st daughter and my cervix was not developed far enough.
In any case, I have continued to "practice" and also tried to get to know my body better and finally did it. Meanwhile, I could not imagine a period without my "Lunette"! There is nothing more practical! You do not need to get any replenishment like traditional products, it lasts much longer (depending on bleeding between 4-12 hours), you can use it for years and little plus for eco-friendly people like me, it's environmentally friendly! So you should not have tried a menstrual cup yet, then definitely do it! Trust yourself and do not give up immediately if it does not work out right away. ;) should you have any further questions in this regard, you are welcome to leave a comment there or share your experiences with me.

Wish you a good start into the new week!"
