14 questions and answers about the menstrual cup: use it or not?

In recent years, more Brazilians have become adept at menstrual collection, yet the subject is still a taboo for most women. Even if this is the first time you have heard of a menstrual collector, know that it has been around since the 1930s.

The menstrual collector is a hypoallergenic and antibacterial silicone cup, adjustable to the body and which collects blood from menstruation. It is malleable, which makes it easier to put it in the vagina. Unlike the tampon, which is inserted at the bottom of the vaginal canal, the collector is at the entrance to the vagina.

n Brazil, prices vary between R $ 85 and R $ 155, but it is difficult to find it in pharmacies. However, some companies sell over the internet. The size varies. There are brands that offer up to four sizes of menstrual cups, but most sell only two sizes: one for the woman who has had children and the other for those who do not. If it is placed correctly, there is no risk of blood leaking, unless the woman has a very intense flow.

Professor Iara Araújo, 23, has been using the menstrual cup for eight months. She started using the regular tampon, then the tampon, but both types bothered her. ; I have always found blood contact with skin disgusting and have already had an allergic reaction to the common absorbent. I moved in, but I still felt discomfort. I researched about another medium and discovered the collector ;, explained Iara. In addition, for her, the; silicone cup; it is more comfortable, sustainable and economical.

There are no contraindications, but it is not advisable for women who have never had sexual intercourse, because when placing or removing the collector, the hymen can break. It is also unwise in the first days after giving birth.

According to the head of gynecology at Hospital Materno Infantil de Brasília (HMIB), Lucila Nagata, patients who use a collector are still a minority. Culturally, the tampon is the most common. In addition, easier to buy and with less taboos ;, explains the gynecologist. She also argues that the collector is the best option for those who have had an allergic reaction to other types of absorbents.

The gynecologist Isa Maria de Mello is against the use of the menstrual collector. For her, there are no justifications for reusing something that is placed inside the body. ; It is unhygienic. In the modern era, it makes no sense to reuse something, if I can throw it away. I say as a doctor and as a woman, this refers to the time of the washcloth ;, emphasizes the doctor.
