A Beginner's Guide to Using Your Menstrual Cup

If you're new to using a menstrual cup, you might feel a little overwhelmed. But don't worry, we've got you covered! Here are some simple steps to follow to make sure you're using your cup correctly and comfortably.

Sterilising Your Cup

Before your first use, it's important to sterilise your menstrual cup. There are a few methods you can use, such as using sterilising tablets, microwaving, or boiling it on the stove.

Inserting Your Cup

To insert your menstrual cup, start by washing your hands with soap and water. You can also rinse your cup with warm water to make it more pliable and easier to insert. Next, fold your cup using one of two popular methods: the tulip fold or the C-fold. Then, gently insert the folded cup into your vagina, making sure it's fully open by feeling the base. If you feel any discomfort, try adjusting the position or the fold until it feels comfortable.

Removing Your Cup

To remove your menstrual cup, first, relax and find a comfortable position. Using your pelvic muscles, gently push the cup down until you can reach the stem. Then, gently wriggle the stem until you can grab the base of the cup. Pinch the base to break the seal and remove the cup carefully to avoid spillage. Make sure to empty and wash your cup thoroughly before reinserting it.

Remember, it's important to sterilise your cup before and after each cycle, and to change it every 4 to 8 hours. With a little practice and patience, using a menstrual cup will be a comfortable and eco-friendly option for your period.

Cleaning

To take care of your menstrual cup, start by emptying it and rinsing it with water or washing it with gentle soap or a menstrual cup wash. If necessary, you can use your fingers or a sterilized toothbrush to scrub it clean. If you don't have access to a private basin, you can bring a bottle of water with you to the bathroom and rinse your cup over the toilet.

Care

After your period is over, it's important to sterilize your cup again. You can do this by boiling it in water for a few minutes or using a sterilizing solution. Once it's clean, let it dry in the sun and then store it in its container or a cloth bag. By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your menstrual cup stays clean and hygienic for future use.

Affordability:

Menstrual cups are a one-time purchase that can save you money in the long run. Unlike tampons or pads, which need to be continuously replenished and can cost upwards of $100 per year, a reusable menstrual cup offers a budget-friendly alternative.

Safety:

Menstrual cups are a safer option compared to tampons, as they collect menstrual blood instead of absorbing it. This reduces the risk of developing toxic shock syndrome (TSS), a rare but serious bacterial infection associated with tampon use.

Capacity:

Menstrual cups have a higher capacity than tampons. They can hold about one to two ounces of menstrual flow, while tampons can only absorb up to a third of an ounce.

Sustainability:

Reusable menstrual cups are an eco-friendly choice as they reduce waste. With proper care, a single cup can last for years, reducing the amount of waste produced by disposable tampons and pads. They are made right here in NZ!
