The Best Menstrual Cups and Tampon Alternatives 2024
Our health writer tested menstrual cups and found the best menstrual cup overall. She also asked experts about the best menstrual cups and tampon alternatives.
“I use a menstrual cup in regular rotation with tampons and reusable pads. I’ve tried the Diva Cup and Softcups. The Diva Cup works best for me when I’m traveling or backpacking. Not having to pack out a bag of used tampons makes camping much more pleasant. I’ve found that the Diva Cup can put too much pressure on my cervix, though, if it is sitting lower in my body, so whenever that happens, I switch to Softcups.” —Ansley Hayes, graduate student
