The Keeper is an amazing product that can free you from the hassle of tampons and pads forever.
With The Keeper, you may never need bulky pads or tampons again. With a simple adjustment in your bathroom ritual, you can empty, rinse, reinsert your keeper and continue with your day knowing you are not creating any strain on the environment, your health or your plumbing. The Keeper is a natural gum rubber cup that is worn internally, holding (instead of absorbing) monthly flow. The Keeper can hold up to one ounce of menstrual flow. (An average woman’s entire monthly flow is about 2 to 4 ounces.) The Keeper Menstrual Cup is simple to use. Just empty the cup as needed (usually every 6 to 12 hours), rinse, and reinsert. (There is no need to boil or soak it.)

For Your Body

Tampons are typically manufactured from rayon fibers. The bacteria called staphylococcus aureus, responsible for toxic shock syndrome, breeds easily on synthetic fibers such as rayon and viscose found in all commercial tampons. The Keeper Menstrual Cup has not been associated with Toxic Shock Syndrome and is accepted for sale by the FDA (U.S.).

As well, commercial tampons may expose you to chlorine, and other bleaching agents. Chlorine can cause the production of dioxins, furans and organochlorines. Health risks from exposure to organochlorines include: immune system inhibition, birth defects and the production of cancers. Studies also suggest a link to endometriosis, breast cancer and other female reproductive disorders. Toxic Shock Syndrome continues to cause serious illness, sometimes fatal, with symptoms including high fever, sunburn-like rash, nausea, diarrhea, headache, sore throat, and achy muscles. 99% of all Toxic Shock Syndrome cases are found in women wearing rayon-blend tampons. Using the Keeper eliminates your exposure to these toxic chemicals.

Further, as the Keeper does not absorb fluids it does not disrupt your natural vaginal acidity or moisture levels.
