Using a menstrual cup is a simple and eco-friendly alternative to traditional sanitary products. To use a menstrual cup, follow these steps:
- Cleanliness: Begin by washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Make sure the cup is clean as well, so you can start with a sanitized device.
- Fold and Insert: Fold the menstrual cup using one of the recommended folding techniques (such as the C-fold or punch-down fold). Relax your muscles and insert the folded cup into your vagina at a comfortable angle. The cup should sit lower than a tampon, around the base of your cervix.
- Unfold and Position: Allow the cup to unfold and pop open fully inside your vagina. You can rotate it slightly to ensure a secure seal. The cup forms a gentle suction to prevent leaks.
- Check and Empty: The cup can typically be worn for up to 12 hours, depending on your flow. However, you should check it more frequently in the beginning to gauge your flow. To remove it, gently squeeze the base of the cup to release the suction, then pull it out. Empty the contents into the toilet, wash the cup with water (or wipe with a clean tissue if a sink is not available), and reinsert.
The benefits of using a menstrual cup include reduced environmental impact due to their reusability, cost-effectiveness in the long run as they can last for years, decreased risk of toxic shock syndrome compared to tampons, and the convenience of longer wear times. Moreover, they come in various sizes and materials to accommodate different body types and sensitivities, making them a versatile and comfortable option for managing menstrual flow.

I haven’t ever used a cup before, I recently bought it and it’s pretty comfortable to use. I was scared at first but the process is quite simple. Did a lil research before using tho, read reviews. It’s good, a definite try for sure💓

This is the time to say “Goodbye Sanitary Pads”. 😇😇
I ordered the product and it was the as shown in the picture. I was trying the Cup for the first time so I excited and nervous too for usingt it. But to be very frank I was too simple to use and much comfortable. There was a time on those 5 days that I often forget I was on periods. No rashes no ichiness. So overall I can say I had best period ls this time.
