What is a Menstruation Cup?:

The Mooncup is a reusable menstrual cup around two inches long and made from soft silicone rubber.

It is worn internally like a tampon but collects menstrual fluid rather than absorbing.

Unlike tampons the Mooncup is not a disposable product, so you only need to buy one.

Why is it safe for me to use?

The Mooncup menstrual cup contains no bleaches, deodorisers or absorbency gels. It does not interfere with your healthy vaginal environment, nor has it been associated with toxic shock syndrome.

The smooth surface of the Mooncup allows the mucus membranes of your vaginal wall to continue their essential cleansing and protective functions. The Mooncup does not absorb your body's natural defence mechanisms and will not deposit fibres in your vaginal wall.

The Mooncup will not cause irritation and is suitable for women with sensitive skin, thrush, eczema or allergy.

For your safety the Mooncup is made from a special medical grade non-allergic silicone. Silicone is derived from silica which is one of the most abundant minerals on earth.

How do I care for my Mooncup?

The Mooncup can be cleaned in the same way as baby equipment: with sterilising fluid, or by boiling for five minutes in an open pan of water.

It is stored in a little bag provided by Mooncup and can be carried in your handbag (always on hand) or stored in a convenient place till your period is due again.

Why do they say it is Eco-friendly?

Unlike pads and tampons the Mooncup menstrual cup is reusable, eliminating the need to carry bulky spares. With proper care your Mooncup will last for several years.

Imagine the towels and tampons that you will be disposing of in landfill sites during those years!

Still not convinced?

Initially you may find the idea of the Mooncup menstrual cup unattractive. Perhaps it is messy, uncomfortable or unhygienic? This is a consistent first reaction to the menstrual cup, and one well worth reconsidering.

Most of us have grown up in an era which offered no alternative to disposable feminine hygiene products and this fact has contributed to the way in which we think about our periods and menstruation.

It is always challenging to experiment with new ideas, particularly those of such a personal nature. The benefits of the menstrual cup however are too great to be ignored.
