The biggest risk with menstrual cups is mild irritation or discomfort. More substantial risks like infection or TSS are rare. It’s an eco friendly feminine hygiene solution. You can potentially replace thousands or pads or tampons over the course of a lifetime by making the switch to a reusable product. Seen as the original and certainly one of the best known menstrual cups out there, Mooncup have been selling their menstrual cups for almost two decades. We love how the spark for Mooncup came following a conversation between two cyclists (one who is the current commercial director of Mooncup, Eileen) at a Critical Mass Bike Ride in the UK in the late 90s. Mooncup, who make their menstrual cups in the UK are also an employee owned and ethical company. Before your period begins, you’ll insert the cup into your vagina. It will form a seal that protects against leaks. When the cup is full, you can gently pull it out using the stem and base of the cup. Then, you’ll empty, wash, and reuse it. Do menstrual cups have side effects? Remember those 10,000 tampons? They’re far more expensive than a few periodcups over a lifetime. Make the switch today and get ready to save money, and lots of it. Better for your Health

The best way to get rid of menstrual cup stainsDo NOT pull on the stem: The stem is used to gain access the bottom of the cup. If you pull on the stem, it will make the suction stronger and more difficult to remove the cup. This can feel unpleasant or even painful. It will also create a mess since the cup won't be supported or controlled when it exits. Get Acquainted with yourself: It is always a good idea to know your own body. Take some time to locate the vaginal opening and even insert a finger to locate your cervix. It feels like the tip of your nose. Knowing where your cervix is will help you to position the cup properly and not insert it too high. If you have a high cervix, you may not be able to feel it with your fingers, which is totally normal! However, others prefer softer cups which can feel more comfortable because they don’t press so strongly. This is especially important if you’ve tried some of the very stiff cups and found that they gave you cramps. Average Stiffness Take a deep breath and actively push the cup down with your pelvic muscles as you reach in to pull it out. Heavy bleeding: Needing to change a high-absorbency tampon or pad every three to four hours, though you may prefer to change more frequently.
Very heavy bleeding or Gushing:
Protection hardly works at all. You would need to change the highest absorbency tampon or pad every hour or two. How does the menstrual cup differ from the tampon?

Relax and take your time: Choose alone time when you can focus without distractions or interruptions. Perhaps after a warm bath when you are relaxed. If you are too nervous, the vaginal muscles will tighten, making it uncomfortable, if not impossible, for successful insertion. This is a far superior cup than the other ones I’ve tried and I want to spread the word about it! That’s why I left this review. It’s a bit more expensive, but it’s totally worth it and I’ve been telling all my friends about it.
