Abstract: Menstruation is a unique phenomenon in women which is a healthy and normal part of life. Menstrual hygiene is an important aspect during menstruation. For this various menstrual hygiene products are available. Menstrual cup has been available for decades, but its use in India is limited because of lack of awareness and popularity of sanitary pad. Menstrual cup is a better alternative to the current methods of menstrual sanitation as it is durable, eco-friendly, comfortable, safe, have no need for frequent changing in a day, and have no disposal issues. The objectives of the study were to assess the level of knowledge regarding menstrual cup and its usage and to find an association between the knowledge of menstrual cup and its usage among students and selected demographic variables. A quantitative research approach was used for the study. A sample of one hundred and twenty students were selected using convenience sampling. The knowledge on menstrual cup and its usage was assessed using a self-structured questionnaire. The present study revealed that majority (70.83%) of students of selected college had moderate knowledge, (26.67%) had good knowledge and (2.5%) had poor knowledge regarding menstrual cup and its usage. The study reported that there was no association between knowledge and socio demographic variables (age of student, religion of student, hometown, family income in rupees, educational status of mother, educational status of father, type of resident, previous knowledge of student regarding menstrual cup, type of sanitary product used and difficulty faced while using sanitary pad). The study concludes that awareness programmes including campaigns, health education programmes must be conducted to promote menstrual cup usage. Keywords: Assess; Knowledge; Menstrual cup; Students.
