Right now is quite possibly the best time there has ever been to be a woman with a period.
The quiet conversation around ‘the time of the month’ is slowly but surely getting louder, menstrual care products are getting smarter and sustainability and women are becoming more and more familiar with their own vaginas.
Intimate healthcare brand Initimina is at the forefront of this menstrual care revolution, championing an entire range of period cups designed specifically for women throughout their lives.
From the day you start your period through to post-birth and perimenopause, Intimina has a cup to combat any and all leaks, painful cramps and not to mention a ruined date night! They’re all easy on the purse strings too.
In fact, Intimina is the first intimate healthcare brand ever to have designed and created an innovative new period cup, which effectively enables women to have sex whilst experiencing a bleed – no matter how heavy the flow – with no mess, or fuss and saving many a ruined towel in the process.
Not only does Intimina care about your sex-life, but it also cares for your vagina’s health.
The entire range is made from body-safe, ultra-hygienic medical-grade silicone. A hypoallergenic, phthalate-free material, without any chemicals, fibers or bleach.
