Why Ruby Cup and My Ova are a match made in menstrual heaven 🩸💊
Periods and hormones go hand in hand. One affects the other, and when either is out of whack—you feel it. That’s why this collaboration just makes sense: because feeling good on your period isn’t just about what you wear or how you manage your flow. It’s about what’s going on inside, too.
By combining MyOva’s hormone-balancing support with Ruby Cup’s period care products, we’re taking a full-circle approach to period health. One that’s kind, sustainable, and designed to actually work with your body—not against it.
Why is hormonal health so important?
Hormones are the silent but powerful operators in our bodies. They’re involved in just about everything—from regulating your mood and skin to influencing your sleep, energy levels, and stress. But despite how much they affect us, we rarely talk about them unless something goes wrong.
The reality is that hormonal imbalance can sneak up on you, causing everything from irregular periods and low energy to mood swings and skin flare-ups. But when you start to address hormonal health head-on? That’s when the magic happens.
Taking control of your hormonal health doesn’t just mean fewer period cramps or better skin—it means feeling like yourself again, It’s about feeling balanced, empowered, and in sync with your body—not battling it.
So… what are hormones, really?
Hormones are chemical messengers that travel through your bloodstream to help tissues and organs communicate. They play a key role in metabolism, growth, sexual function, reproduction, and mood. For those who menstruate, hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone (yes, everyone has some!) orchestrate the monthly cycle.
But hormonal health isn’t just about periods. It’s about everything connected to them, too.
Why Hormonal Health Matters
1. Understanding Your Cycle = Understanding Yourself
A healthy hormonal balance means your cycle runs more smoothly — physically and emotionally. Ever felt like a different person mid-cycle? That’s not in your head. It’s your hormones shifting gears. Tracking your cycle, tuning into your energy patterns, and understanding hormonal phases helps you work with your body instead of feeling at odds with it.
2. Hormonal Imbalances Can Be a Sign of Something Deeper
Irregular periods, intense PMS, acne, hair loss, chronic fatigue — these aren’t things you just have to “deal with.” Often, they’re signs your hormones might be out of sync. Conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, or thyroid disorders often begin with subtle hormonal red flags.
Catching and addressing these early is key — and it starts with listening to your body.
3. Your Hormones Are Affected by the World Around You
From the food you eat to the plastic you store it in, your environment influences your hormones. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) found in things like conventional period products, some cosmetics, and even household cleaners can throw your hormones off balance.
That’s why sustainable, body-safe period care — like medical-grade silicone menstrual cups — matters. It’s not just good for the planet. It’s good for you. And for those seeking additional natural support for hormonal balance, brands like MyOva offer science-backed supplements and botanical teas designed to empower women on their wellness journey.
Supporting Your Hormonal Health (Naturally)
Focusing on your hormonal health doesn’t mean obsessing over every little thing — it’s about making small, intentional choices that support balance. Here are a few we stand by:
-
Ditch single-use plastics and toxins: Your hormones (and the planet) will thank you.
-
Eat whole, nutrient-rich foods: Healthy fats, leafy greens, and fiber-rich foods help keep hormones in check. And for those looking for extra support, brands like MyOva offer science-backed supplements and botanical teas designed to nourish your body and support hormonal balance from the inside out.
-
Move your body in a way that feels good: Exercising is not only good for burning off extra calories - it’s a great tool to regulate your hormones and support your health
-
Prioritize rest: Sleep is when your hormones recalibrate.
-
Use sustainable, hormone-safe period products: Our Ruby Cup is free from bleach, plastic, and harmful chemicals — plus, it’s reusable for up to 10 years.
Yes, Hormonal Health is a Form of Self-Care
At Ruby Cup, we see period care as more than just a product. It’s a daily ritual. A chance to check in with yourself. To ask: How am I really doing?
Focusing on your hormonal health is one powerful way to reconnect with your body, reclaim your energy, and take charge of your well-being — sustainably.
Because when you feel balanced, everything flows better.
Explore Ruby Cup and MyOva to take the first step toward better hormonal health — and becoming the most balanced, empowered version of you.
