Menstrual Cup

Stop spending hundreds of dollars a year on tampons and switch to this USA made medical-grade silicone menstrual cup. Pair with our cotton panty liners for a completely zero waste period! The cup may remain in the body for up to 12 hours at a time, unlike a tampon which must be changed more frequently. Menstrual cups collect menstrual flow, rather than absorbing it. When removing the cup, grip the stem as high as possible. Carefully read and follow care instructions.   C-Fold Flatten Bring ends together Punch-down fold Press down on rim to collapse cup Pinch to hold in place 7-Fold Squeeze and flatten cup Fold top right corner down, so rim forms the number 7.   Inserting your cup is easier when using water as a natural lubricant. You can insert your cup while sitting, squatting, or standing with one leg raised (try setting your foot on the toilet seat). Hold your folded cup firmly below the upper rim. Get comfortable. Spread your legs, and with one hand, gently separate. your labia and with your other insert your cup slowly, rim-first into your vagina. Slide it up and back at an angle (towards your tailbone, not straight upward), until the body of the cup is completely inside. You did it! Position Position your cup lower than a tampon, but feel free to move it up a little if that's more comfortable. Allow it to open. It’s okay for the cup to pop open once it’s inside the vaginal opening before it’s completely inserted. Once in position, release the cup. To make sure it has fully opened, thus creating a suction seal against the vaginal wall, rotate your cup by pinching the base (not just the stem) and turning it. This will prevent leaking. Secure Double-check to make sure the cup has opened by running a finger around the outside of the lower middle of the cup. If you feel any folds, rotate the cup again until it opens completely creating a suction seal. No folds? You’ve successfully inserted your cup, enjoy 12 hours worry free! Removing & Reinsterting Remove: Wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and mild soap. You can stand, sit, or squat, but removing your cup is much easier if you are relaxed. The stem is not a pull tab, do not pull hard on the stem to remove. Break the suction seal by pinching the base of the cup with your thumb and index finger. Do not just pull on the stem. Wiggle the cup side to side as you gently pull it out. Keep it upright to avoid spilling. Helpful hint: Removing the top edge of the rim from the vaginal opening first, and then tilting the cup upright and removing the bottom edge, can be a helpful way to pull out the cup. Holding your cup firmly, empty it into a toilet or sink. Reinsert: Wash your Saalt Cup. Rinse first using cold water, then wash using warm water with mild soap. Rinse thoroughly. Your cup is ready to reinsert!   The Right Cup For You We carry small and medium-sized cups, soft small and medium cups, and cups specifically designed for teens! So which one is right for you?
