Saalt Soft Menstrual Cup - Super Soft and Flexible - Best Sensitive Cup - Wear for 12 Hours - Made in USA (Grey, Small)

This is my first menstrual cup, I was firmly a pad girl before because the tampons are just so uncomfortable. I find it is comfortable and though it can slide, it doesn't often, and I can wear it at night on my heaviest flows and not be worried about pooling. It is a flexible material and gets good suction when inserted properly. I'm gonna go into dirty detail so scroll away now if you're not interested. Before inserting, boil some water and stick it in there for 5 minutes to sterilise (and wash your hands while youre at it) unless you want nasty infections. Next, sit on the toilet, it's gonna get a bit messy. You need to fold the cup and kinda just shove it up there fingers and all until you can feel the cup unfold and hold on. You can take a finger and feel around the rim to make sure it is fully unfolded and settled. If you can pinch the bottom of the cup and it doesn't pop back out into its original shape it's not inserted correctly. Then have a quick wipe and wash your hands coz your fingers look like you just practiced magic from the dark hold. I can usually go from 8-12 hours before unclogging the drain and giving it a quick wash before reinserted. When taking it out. Sit on the toilet again. Shove your fingers up, find the tail, climb up until you can feel the bottom of the cup, pinch it and gently pull out, if you feel grip, it's still suctioned so pinch it a bit more until the seal is broken. It is a great sensation letting all of that blood out of you and you might as well call your toilet carrie cos it's covered in blood. This bad boy can hold a lot of blood so my fellow heavy flowers can rejoice. Make sure the cup is newly in before going to bed, the seal means that even if you overflow at night, it doesn't trickle out and onto your bedsheets. I've never had spotting in any underwear, it's been in for entire work days and not moved, it takes one or two goes the first time, but is easy to place when you've got the routine. One thing I noticed is that in the later stages when you're not bleeding so much anymore and its more spotty, you kinda loose the lubrication to get it in, so imo it gets a bit more uncomfortable. It's at this point i tend to switch to pads which then don't need changing as often until I finish up completely. So, overall, great when you're starting and in your flow stages. Easy insert and removal. Lasts a whole day, or at least a work shift. No worries at night. Bit uncomfortable towards the end of the period. Comes with a nice bag.

OMG it is amazing. This menstrual cup has changed my life. I was worried that the cup would be difficult to insert and remove but I could not be more wrong. I usually get bad cramps on the first 2 days of my period always have but when I used the cup they were gone I’m amazed!! The cups so comfortable can’t feel it at all don’t let the size intimidate you I forgot I was on my period so many times because it’s so comfortable. I could do my usual activities without having to worry about changing a pad or tampon being able to wear the cup for 12 hours is what appealed to me the most and the cup did not disappoint. On my heavier days I could wear it for 6 hours which is amazing compared to the multiple pad changes that would usually be in that time. If I bought a larger cup I could definitely wear it for the full 12 hours on a heavier day. But after the first few days I was able to wear it for the full 12 hours which felt amazing not having to worry about a smelly pad out in public or remembering to bring a pad. I did have a little leaking at the beginning but that was just some user error I wasn’t creating a proper seal I was able to create a good seal when I twisted the cup 360 degrees and I had no leaks after I started doing that. There is a learning curve that comes with the cup but don’t let it put you off. The main thing is to just relax if it doesn’t work the first time try again there’s numerous cup folds and positions for insertion. If you can’t figure out the cup the first time try it when your ready there’s no need to stress or feel bad if you can’t use it cups aren’t for everyone. Removal was very easy for me and I have a high cervix I had no issues reaching the cup at all. Removal can be a little messy and time consuming but it gets easier and quicker over time. I could not recommend a better cup for beginners overall the cup is easy to use and extremely comfortable.

I tried a different brand but it kept leaking. Definitely the best I’ve used. Soft and very comfortable making it easy to use. The only negative is I’ve had 3 in total and the ends always eventually snap off.

I used a different brand for a year and I hated it. It leaked a lot in the morning, was difficult to get out and it was stiff; so much so that I could notice it in certain positions. I couldn't go back to tampons just because there was so much waste so I just stuck with it. I thought there must be a better version and I bought this one based on the reviews, and it is worth switching to this brand! Ive had significantly less leaks and its easier to remove; I think this is because its really soft and responds more to my body and what it's doing, not the other way around. Been using it for a couple of months now and regret not changing brands sooner!

My wife is very happy with this cup. First cup was too firm and small for her, it was leaking. This cup doesn't leak, it is not too soft and not too firm. She said, It opens easily inside, and she doesn't feel it during the day. However she said it is very hard do choose your individual size, so she recommends to watch instruction on You Tube before you make your choice, there is one channel that helped her a lot, and explained all the things she had questions about. They also offer there a quiz (test) at the end of the test you will get recommendations, which cup to choose. All in all - very nice softness, shape and handle.

c'est le troisième coupe que j'essaie. c'était devenu un peu désespérant. mais celle-la est vraiment super.

Esta muy bien el tamaño y la flexibilidad, pero con solo un periodismo de uso, la tirita que cuelga está a punto de romperse

I must say menstrual cups are very personal, what works for others may not work for you. I too have been on an expensive journey of finding the right one, and Saalt soft works PERFECTLY for me. This doesnt cause pain, discomfort or any pressure on my bladder, once inside, i forget about it. Cup size is enough for my heavy days (8-10hrs and i am a heavy bleeder). I've tried Intimina lily compact (great for beginners but too small for my heavy flow - i find emptying my cup every 1-2 hours too much of a hassle, 4hrs on "light" days), Intimina lily cup (too long and was sticking out of my body - binned), divacup too stiff (cramps hours after inserting - binned), tampon tribe (absolutely the worst cup ever!!! it never ever opened up in my body and i ended up hurting myself trying to adjust it and trying to open it in my body, my worst nightmare - DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL!) Cups do change life, i dont experience cramps anymore and days that i do, it goes away less than an hour after putting in my cup. I feel free and airy, i dont have to wear pads anymore, and i hate my cycles so much lesser now.

I used to use Lunette cups for several years and the material is a lot harder, stiff and less flexible than Saalt cups. They were my first ever cups so I just assumed this was the norm for menstrual cups but while sitting with the cup in, it would literally hurt as I'd feel the stem pushing against me inside. I could never forget I was wearing it cos I always felt it inside me due to the stiff material. I randomly looked around at options and the reviews for Saalt cups looked so promising for my issues with Saalt so I took a chance and I'm so glad I did!! It's sooo comfortable, soft, flexible and the stem isn't hard, I can sit nicely while it's inside without feeling any discomfort or pain. I've actually forgotten at times when I'm on my period because I hardly notice. I find I need to empty it at about 70% capacity or else it can start to leak a bit when I'm sitting down (due to the cup bending). But I don't find this to be an issue. It's really made periods quite hassle free and I'm so thankful for this! Will be using it for life
