Ladies, this one is for you today.  How many of you have had the period struggle for years?  If you are like me, you do not have confidence during that time of the month.  Let me be clear, woman are amazing and so are our bodies but that time of the month can be frustrating, painful, expensive and miserable.  I was one of those women that prayed that they (I have no idea who they are) were right and after having children, my period would be easier.  Ugh…not true.

Over the last few years I have seen so many women praising the DivaCup, a reusable, bell-shaped silicone menstrual cup but honestly I was unsure of trying this product.  The fact is, my period is not fun and I want a better experience.  I recently joined the many women worldwide searching for a better period solution by switching to The DivaCup!  

In addition to now relying on The DivaCup for my period needs I am trying to be more thoughtful about combating those “time of the month” issues.  Did you know that Avocados are a great food to help combat PMS symptoms?  It’s true – Avocados are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help fight inflammation and relieve pain due to menstrual cramping plus they taste amazing.  So, instead of chowing down on that chocolate bar I will be adding avocado to my diet.  Another way I am hoping to experience a better period!

We have all had Avocado toast and it is great, but I decided to give my toast a bit of an upgrade by adding in my favorite salad, Caprese.

Directions:

1.  Toast bread in toaster or toaster oven.

4.  Spread the avocado onto the toasted bread.

7.  Add sliced Mozzarella to complete this caprese avocado toast. 
8.  Eat immediately, ENJOY!!
Optional – you can also add balsamic glaze to your toast but I find with the avocado there is enough oil on this “caprese” recipe.

Why The DivaCup?

The DivaCup provides 12 hours of leak-free protection and is clean, comfortable and convenient which to me makes it a much better period care option than the pads or tampons I have used in the past.  When we travel, this is a much easier period care product to pack with us.  No more worrying about how many tampons to bring on vacation. Plus The DivaCup is better for the earth, reusable and eco-friendly and saves you money!

Are you sold yet?  Look, the first time you try The DivaCup you will be nervous but from then on, your period care plan will no longer have deal with strings, wrappers, chafing, chemicals or period hassle.  

Before you decide to try The DivaCup please read the User Guide and to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions with regards to your vaginal or gynecological health.

You can find The DivaCup in the feminine product aisle at Rite Aid.  Make sure you read carefully about which DivaCup you should be purchasing.  DivaCup Model 1 is recommended for women under the age of 30 who have never delivered vaginally or by caesarean section. DivaCup Model 2 recommended for women age 30 and over/or for women who have delivered vaginally or by caesarean section.
Make sure you also pick up the DivaWash to go along with your DivaCup.  The DivaWash is a botanically-based, all natural cleanser specifically designed to protect the silicone material of The DivaCup. The DivaWash is also great for face, body and The DivaCup and made from 100 percent plant-based materials.

    hmmm..I think I've seen or heard about the Diva Cup, but I am so used to using tampons, that I would be very nervous on using this, but like you said, once you use it for the first time, it should be less hassle. I love avocados! I even made avocado deviled eggs and they were awesome!

    I have seen this in the store, but I have been unsure about trying it. I would like to try something different, but I've been nervous about trying this! You've given a lot of details that make it sound like a great product.

    I love avocados. In fact, my Dominican friend introduced me to the awesome existence of this and have been addicted ever since! I have to check this recipe out 🙂

    Avocado toast is one of my favorites. I'm a little past this stage of life, but will pass the good info along to my daughter and I'll have to try your recipe very soon!

    I am a fan of avocados but I never tried them on toast before. This looks absolutely delicious! I will let my daughter know about the cup, the ONLY good thing about being over 50 is I don't have to worry about that anymore.

    I didn't know avocados help. I'm one of those who are in pain for 2 days. Unbearable I must say. I've also never heard of Diva Cup until I saw your post. Will check it out when I'm at RiteAid. Thanks for sharing.

    I am a huge fan of the diva cup. I don't know that I will ever go back. Until I have a problem with them, I am sold. What a great new product from women!

    This is actually one of my go-to meals! I absolutely LOVE all these flavours together! Fresh tomatoes and of course fresh everything is essential!

    The toast here does look so delicious. I am always a big fan of caprese. I wonder if a little smattering of balsamic vinegar would make it taste even better. Although curious to see how that would go with the avocados. As for the rest of the post I will be keeping this in mind as my daughter should be starting her period soon. Maybe not with the product but certainly to have foods that may help out with the pain around the house.
