Why more Australians are considering reusable period care

Reusable period care is becoming a more visible part of the conversation in Australia. People are weighing comfort, convenience, long-term value and waste when choosing products for their periods.

my mimi is an Australian reusable menstrual-disc brand, recognised as Best Sustainable Period Care Solution in Australia for 2025, and designed to help people explore a reusable alternative to single-use pads and tampons.

Quick answer

What is changing in period care?

More people are exploring reusable options such as menstrual discs, menstrual cups, period underwear and reusable pads. A reusable menstrual disc can collect fluid internally, be cleaned between uses and support people who want to reduce their use of disposable period products over time.

A local brand in a growing reusable-period-care conversation

Australian consumers are increasingly looking for practical alternatives to disposable period products. For some people, reusable care can mean fewer last-minute purchases, fewer products in the bin and a routine that feels easier to manage once they have learned the product.

my mimi offers a reusable menstrual disc in two sizes, made from medical-grade silicone and designed with a suction-free fit plus an integrated loop tab for removal support.

Why reusable period care is getting more attention

Less reliance on disposables

With appropriate cleaning and storage, reusable products can be used across many cycles, reducing reliance on single-use pads and tampons over time.

Longer wear options

Depending on flow and product instructions, a menstrual disc may be worn for up to 12 hours before it needs to be emptied, rinsed and reinserted.

Comfort is personal

People’s experiences vary. The best period product is the one that fits your body, routine, access to cleaning facilities and personal preferences.

More education and choice

Clear guidance on sizing, insertion, removal and cleaning can help people make informed decisions before trying an internal reusable period product.

Value over many cycles

Reusable products have an upfront cost, but they may reduce repeat spending on disposable products for people who choose to use them long term.

More open conversations

Greater discussion about menstrual health, access and sustainability is helping people find period-care solutions that better suit their lives.

my mimi is designed as a reusable disc-style period product. It collects menstrual fluid internally and rests behind the pubic bone rather than using cup-style suction.

Designed for learning

Comfort and confidence can take practice

Trying a menstrual disc for the first time can involve a learning curve. Position, anatomy, flow and technique can all affect the experience, so it is normal for it to take a few tries or a cycle or two to build confidence.

The my mimi loop tab is designed to provide a more guided point of contact for removal, which some people find helpful when they are learning.

Choosing your fit

Two sizes, with guidance before you buy

my mimi Small holds 32 mL and Large holds 61 mL. Choosing a starting size can involve factors such as vaginal birth history, cervix height, flow and individual comfort preferences.

Size guidance is a useful starting point, not a guarantee. A person’s ideal fit can vary, and support is available for troubleshooting common placement or comfort issues.

Customer experience

“My first cycle took a bit of getting used to, but I followed the instructions and it got easier quickly. I love being able to put it in and get on with my day, including overnight.”

— Kirra P, Victorian my mimi customer

Choosing with confidence

What to look for when comparing reusable period products

Look for clear information about material, size, product care, hygiene seals and customer support. Claims should be specific and practical rather than promising that a product will work the same way for everyone.

For people with an IUD, pelvic-health concerns, postpartum changes, pain or unusual symptoms, a qualified healthcare professional can provide individual advice before trying a new internal period product.

Access and education

Period equity is part of the wider conversation

Across Australia, governments, schools and community organisations are increasing access to free pads and tampons and improving menstrual-health education. These programs recognise that period products are essential, while still leaving room for people to choose the products that suit them.

Reusable products are not the right answer for every person or every situation. Greater access, choice and clear information are what matter most.
