How to use a cup

H-1

Step 1

Fold

Fold Option 1 “U Fold“: Press the sides of the cup together and then fold it in half again forming a tight “U” shape.

Fold Option 2 “Push Down“: Place a finger on the top rim of the cup and press it down into the center of the inside base to form a triangle. This makes the top rim much smaller to insert.

Step 2

Hold

Hold the folded sides firmly in place between your thumb and forefinger so that the curved edge is facing away from your palm.

Step 3

Insert

In a comfortable position (like squatting) and with your vaginal muscles relaxed, gently separate the labia with your free hand and then push the curved edge of the folded cup horizontally into the vaginal opening so that the bottom of the cup is about a 1/2 inch into the vagina.

Step 4

Removal

To remove, insert your thumb and forefinger into your vagina until you can reach the base of the cup. Pinch the base of the cup to release the seal and continue to pull down to remove it. After the cup has been removed, empty the contents of the cup in the toilet, wash the cup well with warm water and a mild soap, and reinsert. It can be washed with plain water. Oil based soaps generally weaken the longevity of the cup.

Clean & Care tips

  • Before inserting or removing a menstrual cup, be sure to wash your hands with soap.
  • Empty the hygiene product at least twice a day or once every 12 hours.
  • If you don’t have a chance to wash it, pour out the contents and wipe the cup with a special napkin. Make sure your hands are clean.
  • Don’t use lubricants to insert the cup.
  • Don’t wash it with vinegar, oils, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or soda because these will damage the silicone.
  • After your period ends, wash the cup as usual or boil it for 5–10 minutes.
  • Keep it in a bag made of breathable cotton (available in the kit).
  • Keep the cup away from damaging agents, pets, children and direct sun-light.
  • Keep the cup clean at all times
