A Menstrual Cup is a reusable alternative to tampons. Made from soft, flexible materials, they are folded into a smaller shape, inserted into the vagina - where they collect the menstrual flow. Once the cup has been in place for several hours, it can be removed, the contents emptied into the toilet (or shower/sink), the cup rinsed and reinserted.
Unlike tampons, a menstrual cup does not dry out the vagina, and does not have the same TSS risk. They can be used overnight, and only needs to be emptied only a couple of times a day.
Smooth inside lining of the cup, with minimal writing on the outside and solid stem - to make cleaning easy
Smoother outer rim, for more comfortable insertion/removal
Flexible flat tab stem, which can feel more comfortable than "tube" style stems, while still providing a stem to grip
Measuring lines of 7.5ml and 15ml for for monitoring the amount of your flow
Can be sterilised by placing in boiling water for 2-5 minutes
Comes with a storage pouch, and packaged in a box
