Leia Menstrual Cup | New Brand Designed by an OB/GYN

Period.Shop is excited to add new menstrual cup brand to our curated product selection. Leia Cup offers 3 size options and is specifically designed by an OB/GYN to work for those with weak pelvic floor muscles or those with a low cervix. Low cervix cups can be hard to find and with the stems trimmed, the Leia Cup design should fit most who find average cups are too long to comfortably wear. For our listing we relied on the brand's measurements. The body and total length of the cup are measured from the longest side of the cup's rim. The cup will, in practice, fit like a cup with a slightly smaller length measurement due to the asymmetrical rim design. As...

Tips for Removing Stains on Your Menstrual Cup or Menstrual Disc

Let's face it - your period blood is eventually going to stain your menstrual cup or disc after months or years of use. Don't worry - a stained product is still completely safe to use but as the hue changes it might start to look less appealing. Menstrual cup stains are caused by the iron content in your blood; some people can use a product for years without stains while others use the same product and find it stained within a month. The color and texture of your product will also effect how quickly stains show. Stains are not a sign that something is wrong with you or the product. Stains are also not an indication that poor hygiene is to...

Tax Free Periods

Over at Periodnirvana.com we've been closely watching the status of various laws that will remove state 'tampon taxes.' Menstruation is not a choice, not a sexual activity, and having good choices to manage menstruation provides for healthy and productive living. Despite this health need, 27 US states have not exempted menstrual products from state sales and use taxes. That's down 3 states from the last time we wrote about the state of tampon tax in the US, showing some momentum in repealing this tax nationwide. Unfortunately, the South Carolina bill remains in Committee for both the House and Senate. With my warehouse located in SC, I've reached out to the bill sponsors to seek progress on behalf of my customers. ...
