But menstrual cups could actually improve your sex life, a new survey claims. For comfort: As menstrual cups collect menstrual flow instead of absorbing it, dryness and discomfort is reduced. One menstrual cup replaces thousands of tampons. For the longer wear time: Menstrual cups can be worn for up 12 hours between changes compared to the 8 hours maximum for a tampon. To mark Menstrual Hygiene Day today, feminine hygiene company Intimina asked 1,500 women how their periods had changed since swapping tampons for a cup.
