This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

That time of the month is definitely not our favorite time of the month. We’re always so bloated, emotional, tired, in pain and ready for our monthly visitor to get packing. Chances are that you end up having to make many (if not all) of these tough decisions each month when your cycle rolls around. Life is rough.

At least this choice isn’t hard. By choosing The DivaCup you save money (and the environment!) every single month.

Sounds like a win-win us. The DivaCup just made your time of the month a little easier – and made one of your hard choices a no-brainer. You’re welcome.
