How long have you used reusable menstrual products?: About two years

Reason for making the switch to reusables: Aside from the obvious desire to lessen my carbon footprint, I switched to reusable menstrual products to have a better attitude about my period. Not that the whole process was this squicky mess that I would rather light my hair on fire than deal with, but I knew there could be a better way to get through my cycle without using scratchy cotton and dealing with leaks galore. My Lunette is so easy to use (after perfecting the "twist" when inserting), easy to clean, and easy to forget about throughout my day.

Funny anecdotes, deep thoughts, or anything else you’d like to share: I recently moved to Los Angeles for my husband's work. He simply had to transfer but I'm still job hunting. Reusable products are great for women on a budget. I haven't had to buy pads or tampons in almost two years! Little things add up, so I take all the help I can get when it comes to expenses.
