Background: Menstrual cup is an alternative to sanitary pads, which has received attention in relatively small-scale studies in high income, and low- and middle-income countries, including among schoolgirls. Made of high-grade medical grade silicone (biodegradable) have the advantage of reuse, and can potentially last up to 10 years. Objective of this study was to assess and analyse the awareness regarding menstrual cup among the women of reproductive age group.Methods: Data collected from the selected eligible participants by an interviewer administered study proforma. It is a descriptive cross-sectional study over 1 month in women in reproductive age in A. J. Institute Mangalore, Karnataka, India.Results: A total 82% were aware about menstrual cup but only 2.6% have used it.Conclusions: One challenge of menstruation that is taken for granted in affluent countries is the simple question of how to manage or contain the menstrual flow and what happens to a girl or woman who is not able to do this successfully. Menstrual hygiene management is therefore an increasingly important (yet often unrecognized) issue that is heavily intertwined with girls’ education, empowerment, and social development.

Background: Menstrual cups have been available for decades, but their use in India is limited because of lack of awareness and popularity of sanitary pads. Since they are reusable, they reduce solid waste and are environment friendly. The need of the hour is education, awareness, and availability of the eco-friendly practices when it comes to managing menstrual waste effectively. Once that is taken care of, it will be easy for anyone to make a green switch.Methods: A total 400 medical undergraduate students (females) were given a questionnaire. The objective of the study was to assess knowledge about the menstrual cup among students.Results: Among 400 medical students, 28(7%) of them dint know what a menstrual cup was! 262(70.4%) students were for usage of menstrual cup in virgins. There was no clear picture among students regarding material used in cup manufacture, its emptying time and sterilisation technique. Among 372 students, none of them used a menstrual cup.Conclusions: All the students in the study used sanitary pads, owing to its popularity and promotion. There was lack of awareness about the cup. So, we conclude that menstrual cup needs promotion in India. To boost the adoption rate of menstrual cups, youth should be targeted, who are more open to the idea of environment-friendly products. The Government must conduct awareness programs in the rural areas and work constantly spreading the message across all socio-economic sectors so that we can make the dream of a “pad free country”, a reality soon.

Background: Menstrual cups have been available for decades, but their use is limited by bulky design and the need for multiple sizes. However, some benefits have been reported like improvement in managing health and hygiene during menstruation, better information on the average menstrual fluid discharged by women during menstruation and attainment of more knowledge bridging the lacuna in knowledge about the adaptability and efficacy of menstrual cup as a better alternative to conventional options. The study is aimed towards assessing the adaptability and the effectiveness of menstrual cup by naïve users who have been using sanitary pads/tampons/cloth as conventional menstrual sanitary protection.Methods: The study was conducted at conducted Gujarat Medical Education and Research Society, Medical College and Hospital, Dharpur, Patan, Gujarat, India. Total 158 participants aged between ages of 20 to 50 years with regular menstrual cycle were enrolled in the study. Participants were provided menstrual cups to be used for three consecutive menstrual cycles. They were given detailed explanation/information about its usage. Feedback was obtained after every cycle for three cycles using a structured questionnaire.Results: The cup was preferred for comfort, dryness, and less odor. Insertion was easy for 80% participants and 90% participants found removal easy. Problem of leakage was encountered in 3-6%. There were few side effects like rashes, dryness or infection.Conclusions: These results demonstrate that this reusable vaginal device has no significant health risks and is acceptable to many women without the need for fitting or other medical services.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTFifteen currently marketed intravaginal protection products (11 types of tampon and 4 types of menstrual cup) were tested by the modified tampon sac method to determine their effect onStaphylococcus aureusgrowth and toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) production. Most tampons reducedS. aureusgrowth and TSST-1 production, with differences based on brand and composition, and the level ofS. aureusgrowth was higher in destructured than in unaltered tampons. We observed higher levels ofS. aureusgrowth and toxin production in menstrual cups than in tampons, potentially due to the additional air introduced into the bag by cups, with differences based on cup composition and size.IMPORTANCEMenstrual toxic shock syndrome is a rare but severe disease. It occurs in healthy women vaginally colonized byStaphylococcus aureusproducing toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 using intravaginal protection, such as tampons or menstrual cups. Intravaginal protection induces TSS by the collection of catamenial products, which act as a growth medium forS. aureus. Previous studies evaluated the impact of tampon composition onS. aureusproducing toxic shock syndrome toxin 1, but they are not recent and did not include menstrual cups. This study demonstrates that highly reproducible results forS. aureusgrowth and TSST-1 production can be obtained by using a simple protocol that reproduces the physiological conditions of tampon and cup usage as closely as possible, providing recommendations for tampon or cup use to both manufacturers and consumers. Notably, our results do not show that menstrual cups are safer than tampons and suggest that they require similar precautions.

Full textAbstract:
Managing menstrual hygiene is a problem for many women around the world, especially in developing countries. The lack of access to sanitary products, clean water, knowledge and other necessary resources leads to taboos and health implications, as well as have negative impacts on girls’ education. This thesis investigates if this problem may be improved by the distribution of menstrual cups, by seeking to answer the two following questions; can the usage of the menstrual cup strengthen girls’ participation in education? And; can the usage of the menstrual cup have a positive impact on girls’ possibilities of engaging in social interactions during menstruations? In order to answer these questions, 15 recipients of menstrual cups in Tanzania have been interviewed. The thesis’ point of departure is within the capability approach, to understand if the girls’ capabilities within the spheres of health, education and social interactions have been strengthened or not. With this approach, the thesis can fully explore the girls’ well-being and opportunities, as the theory defines this as the opportunities they have, not only the ones they choose to pursue. The findings show that all interviewed recipients chose to continue to use their menstrual cups as they felt that it improved either their economy, health or gave them increased confidence in school as it lowered the risks of visible leakage. Nearly all girls felt less restricted in school and more able to participate in class, talk and play with classmates regardless of menstruating or not. Furthermore, the thesis concludes that the living conditions of the recipients may have affected the positive result, and that it cannot be ruled out that a similar result would have shown with any other sanitary product used correctly.

Full textAbstract:
In rural areas of South Africa, there is a lack of education and implementation of menstrual hygiene management. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the suitability and hygienic safety of the menstrual cup used by girls and young women who have harsh living conditions. The study was performed in uMkhanyakude, KZN, South Africa, where the menstrual cup was introduced. The evaluation of the menstrual cup and the usage of it was carried out through interviews, forms, discussions and observations. Finally, the results from the follow-up was compiled to adapt the menstrual cup to the environment of rural areas of South Africa. It appeared that culture related problems were those which made the menstrual cup hard to implement. To minimize these issues, an idea was developed in the form of a model of a kit with a menstrual cup, a kettle and an informatory book.WoMensCup

Full textAbstract:
It is argued in this thesis that the stigmatization of menstruation and the atypical product features of the menstrual cup constitute a unique marketing challenge for vendors of the menstrual cup. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate these issues and the ways in which Scandinavian vendors approach them. Further, the possible effects of this approach on the rate of adoption of the menstrual cup are analyzed. In order to do so, interviews with four Scandinavian vendors of the menstrual cup were conducted. The main findings are that the stigmatization of menstruation is the most influential factor in the marketing of the menstrual cup as it hinders the spreading of knowledge about menstruation and the menstrual cup. It is found that the vendors take an educational approach in order to spread information, which in turn enables learning. Information is spread primarily through word-of-mouth.

Full textAbstract:
School attendance is an important part of socio-economic development. In South Africa school girls miss 25% of their education due to menstrual related issues. The menstrual cup is increasingly considered as a sustainable menstrual hygiene product for girls, and is included in programs for improving menstrual health. This study deals with menstruation in school environments focusing on a menstrual cup program in the North West province of South Africa. Twenty school girls have been interviewed about their thoughts and feelings of menstruation. Also investigated is how the menstrual cup relates to girls’ capabilities to attend school and what obstacles there are for girls’ school attendance. An intersectional phenomenological approach is used together with theories of stigmatization, capabilities and sexualization. The menstrual cup is shown as a way of avoiding the stigma as female students are teased about their menstruation when leaking due to insufficient menstrual hygiene products. Even though menstruation is considered normal, it should kept a secret, especially from boys. Girls’ capabilities improved as they were using the menstrual cup because they did not have to face the embarrassment of leakage. Economic capabilities are enhanced as the menstrual cup is distributed free of charge. Stigmatization and sexualization of menstruation and the female body is presented to affect how girls feel about their menstruation. Concludingly, the cup is not reducing the stigma but reducing the encountering of it. Social change regarding sexualization of women and stigmatization of female attributes must be done for the girls to have full human capabilities.

Full textAbstract:
This bachelor thesis is based on a field study conducted in Nairobi, Kenya, and intends to elucidate the systematic crimes against humanity that the inability to handle menstruation properly causes every day. Women who live under poor circumstances and lack access to basic needs, such as sanitary facilities and running water are the ones who suffer the most. Menstruating women are victims of not only physical and mental abuse, but also the stigma and neglect pervading the subject. This leads to the exclusion of women, both in school and at work, which in turn causes negative economic effects for the whole society. Besides elucidating the substantial economic and health consequences that menstruation can result in, the purpose of the thesis is to examine the market conditions in Nairobi and suggest sustainable solutions for menstrual cups. The menstrual cup is a durable product that might improve the situation for both women and the society, because of its suitable features. The study focuses on the informal settlements of Nairobi, and the purpose is not to examine other informal settlements or rural areas in Kenya. This is a qualitative study, primarily based on a field study, profound interviews, as well as a limited survey. To achieve the purpose, we have tried to answer questions concerning the fundamental conditions for the current market of menstrual cups; the conditions for an increase in demand; and what a well-functioning structure for the menstrual cup would be. Besides answering these research questions, the methods were necessary in order to get an understanding of the conditions in Nairobi. The interview respondents represent both the consumers and the producers, with the purpose of getting a wider perspective regarding the market conditions. The questionnaire targeted the parents and caretakers, whom are the economic decision makers in the households. The aim was to get a comprehension about the life situations and economic conditions characterising the informal settlements, but also to get a general idea about the attitude towards the menstrual cup, since the product is rather unfamiliar. The current market structure is characterised by charity organisations who distribute the menstrual cups for free. Their main concept is to educate young girls and secure a better future for them by securing the supply of menstrual management products. The study has shown the biggest challenge to overcome is the inability to pay, however, the result shows there are different possible solutions for producers and distributors to approach the market of menstrual cups. Instalments, price discrimination, Multi-Level Marketing, governmental subsidies and sponsoring from global organisations are some of the proposed strategies discussed in this thesis. A sustainable market solution is necessary to utilise the positive externalities that emerges from menstrual cup usage, and satisfy the need for good quality menstrual management products in Nairobi in the long run. Today, because the cup usage is low, the positive externalities are lost, resulting in deadweight losses. In conclusion, there are several possible market strategies for both incumbents and potential new entrants. The study has also found that menstrual health does not get enough recognition by neither national authorities, nor global actors, like the United Nations. This matter needs to be acknowledged in order to improve the conditions for millions of women suffering from menstrual related problems today.

Background and Objectives: Menstruation plays an important role in women’s lives as it accompanies about half of their living years, and menstruation-related factors can influence their HRQOL. However, other than the commonly used sanitary pads and tampons in Taiwan, little is known about women’s intention to use the relatively new menstrual product, menstrual cups, even though they have been used in Europe and USA for decades. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the factors associated with menstrual cup use intention among female university students in Taiwan, using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as a theoretical framework, and to examine the relationships between different menstrual product use and the 4 domains of health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Methods: Data from 1,245 female university students in Taiwan were collected using an anonymous online survey based on the TPB in December, 2016 through January 2017. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to explore the factors associated with menstrual cup use intention, including their interactions with gender characteristic and sexual orientation. Then, multivariate linear regression was used to examine the relationships between different menstrual products use (tampon and pad users) and the 4 domains of HRQOL. Results: This study found that female university students with the following characteristics had higher menstrual cup use intention: those who had relatively neutral (AOR=2.82) or positive (AOR=4.35) attitudes about positive outcomes, relatively positive attitudes about negative outcomes (AOR=2.32), relatively neutral (AOR=2.22) or supportive (AOR=1.88) subjective norms, and relatively higher perceived control under constraining conditions (AOR=3.40). In addition, sexual orientation and gender characteristic were found to have moderating effects. For example, bisexual college girls with relatively masculine characteristic who perceived high control under constraining conditions had higher menstrual cup use intention (AOR=2.45). Further, different menstrual product users had different HRQOL in all 4 domains. For instance, in the physical health domain, tampon users had better HRQOL (β=0.054) than pad users; in the social domain, tampon users (β=0.059) and menstrual cup users (β=0.071) both had better HRQOL than pad users. Conclusions: This study used the TPB as a theoretical framework to systematically examine menstrual cup use intention among female university students. The results showed that those perceiving more positive attitudes, more supportive norms, and higher behavioral control had higher menstrual cup use intention. Also, sexual orientation and gender characteristic were critical moderators for menstrual cup use intention. In addition, the comparison between pad and tampon users revealed significant differences in factors associated with the 4 domains of HRQOL. Therefore, future menstrual health education could focus more on introducing the different features of various menstrual products and help users make informed decisions about which menstrual products could best suit their needs. The findings of this study can provide empirical evidence to inform future menstrual health promotion to improve women’s HRQOL.

Introduction: Female adnexal tumour of probable wolffian origin (FATWO), is a rare neoplasm arising within the leaves of a broad ligament or hanging from it or a fallopian tube. It is considered a tumour of low malignant potential which shares similar histological and immunochemical features with mesonephric remnants. Case: Here we present a case repot of a 40 years old, nulliparous female who presented with acute pain abdomen and fever since 2 days. Her LMP was 30.09.2015 and her past menstrual cycles were irregular. She was nulliparous with history of infertility. In past medical history revealed her to be a known diabetic for 5 years, with uncontrolled blood sugars. Patient was hemodynamically stable. On per abdominal examination there was generalized tenderness all over the abdomen with guarding and rigidity. On per speculum examination vaginal discharge was noted with unhealthy cervix. Per vaginal examination revealed a tender mass of approximately 8 cm × 6 cm was felt on left fornix. All her base line investigations were normal. The salient investigations like CA-125 35.60 IU/L, CEA 3.46, Beta-HCG 2.29 were normal. On imaging, MRI showed a well defined solid cum cystic space occupying lesion of 9 cm × 8 cm arising from left adnexa with evidence of right hemorrhagic adnexal cyst 6 cm × 7 cm and hydro/hematosalpinx noted. There was well defined space occupying lesion in the pelvis on the left of the uterus which is likely a broad ligament leiomyoma. Diagnosis of acute abdomen was made with adnexal mass probably infectious in origin. Injectable antibiotics were started. In view of acute pain abdomen decision for surgical intervention was taken. Laparoscopic findings revealed bilateral ovarian abscess with left sided broad ligament mass (solid consistency) probably leiomyoma. Right tube and ovary were normal. Drainage of tuboovarian abscess with left salpingo-oophorectomy with right salpingectomy with adhesiolysis was done and sent for histopathology. HPE reported Female adnexal tumour of probable wolffian origin (FATWO) which was positive for vimentin and CD10, possibly arising from left sided broad ligament. Patient underwent radical hysterectomy with omentectomy with appendicectomy was done.in view of FATWO. Conclusion: Female adnexal tumour of probable wolffian origin (FATWO), is a rare neoplasm which is usually considered as benign, although in some cases metastasis on recurrences have been reported even after a long interval following the initial diagnosis. Pre-operative diagnosis of FATWO is very difficult because of the rarity of the disease and paucity of the literature available.
