Er menstruationskop, genanvendelige bind og menstruationstrusser bedre end tamponer og engangsbind?
The most important question is what feels most comfortable and safe for you personally.
We can tell you that studies have shown that 70% of women who use cups, reusable pads, and menstrual panties experience fewer cramps during their period.
Furthermore, using the cup, through a total of 42 studies with 3319 participants, shows that there are no undesirable effects or changes in your vaginal flora, see more here .
By using our cups, pads and panties, you avoid chemicals being transferred to your body through sweat or directly through the vagina. Remember that tampons absorb your natural secretions, which can cause dryness and infections. This is one of the reasons to use reusable and safe products month after month for several years.

The cup is perfect for women with heavy bleeding, but can be used by anyone, even if you are a virgin. If you need extra protection, it can be used together with a reusable pad or menstrual panties.
All of these products are good choices if you are concerned about the waste produced by hygiene products, but also if you want to expose your body to fewer chemicals.
Cups, reusable pads and menstrual panties are cheaper solutions compared to buying disposable products every month. You can buy them once and use them for a minimum of 2 years.

Are there any odors I should be concerned about?
Are there any odors I should be concerned about?
The cup will prevent menstrual blood from coming into contact with air, which will prevent bacteria from developing unpleasant odors.
Sanitary pads and menstrual panties are made of a safe material that blocks odor. However, blood will always have a distinct odor. We believe that odors are normal and OK and we encourage you to accept your body as it is, perfect, imperfect.
Very important: our products are not sprayed and no chemicals are used to prevent odor. You should not spray your products with perfume as it is unhealthy for your intimate area.

Is Femi.Eko also committed to social sustainability?
Yes.
First and foremost, we all participate positively in protecting the planet by purchasing sustainable products that are plastic-free and produce less hygiene product waste.
Caring for the planet is not just a statement, that's why we've partnered with Trees For the Future (Link to the page for Tree for the future) to plant trees and create local farms, while making a better impact for the air, the earth and families. The majority of the farms are owned by women, and we're happy to give them a little bit of value in their lives.
We also collaborate with www.bedresyntilafrika.dk in the fight against menstrual poverty in Africa by sponsoring menstrual cups, reusable pads and menstrual underwear in an education program for women.
