Menstruation New Innovation: Menstruation or periods have a special place in women’s life which is a natural process. Every month women struggle with menstrual pain. Efforts are also made to provide relief to women from this problem, which includes making new innovations in sanitary pads or menstrual cups. It is reported that, in a major breakthrough, Canadian researchers have developed the existing menstrual cup as a safe and convenient tool by using seaweed. It is claimed that this tool will track women’s health.

Know how this new menstrual cup will work

Let us inform you that researchers from McMaster University in Ontario have done research in this direction. In this, the new menstrual cup will not be ordinary but will be effective in detecting infections, monitoring reproductive health and detecting conditions like endometriosis and UTI. It is said that it is a flushable pill made of highly absorbent seaweed based material. “This project helped me understand how much innovation is needed in menstrual care,” said Zainab Husainidost, associate professor of biomedical and chemical engineering at the university.

Because of this new discovery

It is said that women who use cups during their periods usually complain that menstrual blood gets spilled while changing them and this prevents them from using them during those difficult days. But this research aims to overcome these problems. It is designed to prevent bleeding from spreading when the menstrual cup is removed. “There has been very little progress in the conversation about menstrual care. One reason for this is society’s narrow-mindedness and another is lack of interest, but the CUP has the potential to make a big difference in the lives of women around the world,” Husainidost added.

It will be easier to detect diseases

With the help of this new type of menstrual cup, there is relief in menstruation. The team envisions future versions of menstrual products that will be equipped with sensors to detect early signs of infection and blood-borne diseases. These will use menstrual blood as a rich source of biological information. “This could be a new form of wearable technology that could be even more valuable than smartwatches,” said Tohid Didar, an associate professor of mechanical and bioengineering who co-led the research.
