Yes, it is safe to use a reusable menstrual cup instead of tampons. Tampons can cause irritation and infections due to the material they are made of, whereas menstrual cups are made from medical-grade silicone that is non-porous and bacteria resistant. Additionally, using a menstrual cup does not require any special technique or insertion method.
