In the 90s when I was a teen I tried an expensive, heavily branded as "eco friendly" rubber menstrual cup and didn't have a great time. Ended up using disposable products. Most people don't re-think this choice once they have something that "works"

The "cup landscape" has changed: Silicone cups are amazing. Easy to clean, more shapes and designs. And they are CHEAP. 

The old crunchy brands are trying up upsell with extra packaging and little cloth bags. Ignore them.  1/ 

 You can pay anything from $4 to $40 for a silicone cup. I have yet to find any compelling reason to pay more. The expensive brands have more limited designs and the one I like best isn't even made by any of them. 

The low price means that things can be done correctly. Try a few sizes and style find the one that works. Then a set of 6 should last you about 3 years.
