A menstrual cup is a reusable, flexible device made from medical-grade silicone, rubber, or elastomer, designed to collect menstrual blood during menstruation. It is inserted into the vagina and creates a seal, preventing leakage. The menstrual cup provides an eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative to traditional disposable sanitary products, helping to maintain hygiene while reducing waste.
The main types of menstrual cups are disposable and reusable. Disposable menstrual cups are single-use, flexible products made from medical-grade silicone or thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), designed for convenience and hygienic disposal after one use. These cups are made from various materials, including silicone, latex, and thermoplastic elastomer, and come in different shapes such as bell-shaped, cylindrical, V-shaped, disc-style, and collapsible. Menstrual cups are available in small, medium, and large sizes and are distributed through various channels, including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, online pharmacies, and other outlets.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are impacting the menstrual cups market by increasing costs of imported medical-grade silicone, thermoplastic elastomers, molds, and sterilization equipment. North America and Europe are most affected due to dependence on imported raw materials, while Asia-Pacific faces pricing pressure on exports. These tariffs are raising product costs and influencing retail pricing. However, they are also promoting domestic material sourcing, local manufacturing of menstrual products, and long-term supply chain resilience for reusable hygiene solutions.

The increasing prevalence of dysmenorrhea and menstrual health diseases is expected to drive the growth of the menstrual cups market going forward. Dysmenorrhea refers to painful menstruation, often characterized by cramps, while menstrual health diseases encompass various conditions affecting the menstrual cycle, including irregular periods, heavy bleeding, and hormonal imbalances. The rise in dysmenorrhea and menstrual health conditions is linked to factors such as hormonal imbalances, stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, and underlying conditions like endometriosis or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Menstrual cups help manage dysmenorrhea and menstrual health conditions by reducing cramps, preventing irritation, maintaining vaginal hygiene, minimizing leaks, and enabling better flow tracking for conditions such as PCOS and endometriosis. For instance, in April 2023, according to the National Library of Medicine, a US-based federal government entity, dysmenorrhea affects 50-90% of females, with a 71.1% prevalence among young women across 38 countries (20,000+ participants). Therefore, the increasing prevalence of these conditions is driving the menstrual cups market.
