Industry Trends and Drivers:

  • Revolutionary Shift Toward Environmental Sustainability:

As sustainability becomes more commonplace in the feminine hygiene industry, the environmental impact of the hundreds of millions of menstruators around the world who use disposable menstrual products each day is hard to overlook. Customary pads and tampons produce over two hundred thousand tons of waste annually, with products taking 500 to 800 years for decomposition. One cup can be reused for up to 10 years. Menstrual cups are therefore a more sustainable option, reducing the equivalent of 10000 disposable menstrual products over a lifetime of use. This sustainability is appealing to customers the world over, however building awareness through such outreach work helps a reusable menstrual cup (estimated USD 300, INR 300 in India) replace hundreds of disposable pads and allow households to invest more in their food, clothing, education and healthcare.

  • Breakthrough Product Innovations Transforming User Experience:

The menstrual cup market keeps developing rapidly with a growing number of niche products. In February 2024, Diva International released a softer menstrual cup aimed at first-time buyers and those with sensitive pelvic floor muscles, and saw a 15% growth in sales over the following six months. In the same month, Saalt launched their plant-based biodegradable menstrual cup with a digital media campaign targeting eco-conscious millennials and Generation Z. Smart technology has also been introduced. DivaCup launched a smart menstrual cup in December 2023. The cup connects with a mobile app through Bluetooth to track the menstrual cycle. In December, FDA cleared Lunette's new medical grade SoftCup with an antimicrobial coating that reduces bacteria count by 99.7%. These innovations address concerns about comfort, cleanliness, and convenience. Intimina and other brands manufacture collapsible menstrual cups for use while traveling, and even during sports and other activities.

  • Global Health Initiatives Driving Market Expansion:

Menstrual health is increasingly recognized as a human rights issue by governments and international bodies. The World Bank reports that around 500 million women lack the necessary menstrual hygiene products and facilities for menstrual hygiene management. Scotland became the first country to make menstrual products including sustainable products available for free to anyone who needs them. Universities in North America also have free menstrual cup distribution programs. The University of Connecticut, California State University San Marcos, and the University of Arizona have given more than 1500 cups to individual students. In these programs, self-reported satisfaction with the menstrual cup is high. In one program, 88% of users reported that they accept and would recommend use of the menstrual cup to other community members. Data from survey research in Japan found that the willingness to use a free menstrual cup among those who do not use menstrual cups ranges from 27.4% to 63.9%.

  • Economic Empowerment Through Cost-Effective Solutions:

Menstrual cups can save consumers globally money, as one menstruator will have an average lifetime cost of USD 12,800 on other menstrual products. The average cost of using a menstrual cup over the 40 years of a woman's reproductive life is USD 180 (3 per decade) and USD 430 (8 per decade). For all women, it costs USD 1575 less per month than disposables (15 tampons per month at USD 9 per box of 20). In the developing world, the economic argument is even stronger. Startups Saathi, Carmesi and Sparkle in India have developed compostable pads and silicone cups specific to India's context. Indian states have launched campaigns like the Jharkhand Udaan project and Kerala's ShePad scheme to raise awareness, improve hygiene, and increase access to the products among schoolgirls and the populace.

  • Addressing Critical Health and Safety Concerns:

Women are becoming more aware regarding how conventional menstrual products can harm their health. In one study, 50% of the women in India reported having a urinary tract infection, as they could not manage their period with conventional products. Kidney failure can be caused by untreated urinary tract infections. Menstrual cups have been developed. They are made of medical-grade silicone, latex or rubber which are not toxic or linked to TSS. TSS is estimated to occur 0.8 to 3.4 per 100,000 people in the United States. UNICEF and the World Health Organization estimate that only two-fifths of schools worldwide provide menstrual education and millions of girls lack menstrual health information. This is slowly changing, as over 150 million people in 20 countries have been reached through education campaigns about menstrual hygiene, according to UN data. The World Bank's Water Global Practice has incorporated menstrual health and hygiene into its projects in various countries. For example, in Bangladesh, the Rural Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for Human Capital Development Project includes integrated behavior change sessions on the importance of menstrual hygiene in water, sanitation and hygiene program activities.
