Menstrual Cup – Reusable Period Cup – Made for Comfortable, Leak-Free Protection Up to 12 Hours – BPA & Latex Free – Includes Cup & Carry Bag (Regular, Ocean Blue)

This is the first time I have worn a cup. I didn't know which brand to buy but I knew I wanted a flexible one. I watched an informative youtube video first so I was aware of the need to "break the seal" before removal, I'm happy I watched it first because the video said if you don't break the seal it is painful. Even watching the video, removing was not super easy although not super hard either. I don't think I would want to remove it in a public bathroom although I'm sure after a year of practice, it won't be so weird. I made sure to get a very flexible one which this one is. I like it, it's much more comfortable than a tampon because it doesn't dry you out. I think I did leak some, I probably should have purchased the larger one because I think that one would leak less but I have light periods and am a baby about new things. Unfortunately it didn't arrive before my period started so I only got to try it out about 2.5 days in which is when my period begins to lighten quickly. I wore it for probably 8 hours before I took it out and it was about a quarter full. I can't imagine removing it full but I guess we'lll see how that goes in the future. It's weird to be 34 and learn new ways to take care of menstruation. I'm almost like what's the point, but I probably still have 10 more years of periods. I also bought thinx underwear which was much more expensive than this cup but also, come on, who wants to sleep with anything inside of you if they don't have to? It's so great that women now have so many options to choose from, so much better from the days of tampons vs. pads. The only thing I have to say is I wanted a black one to keep it from staining and like who cares if it's a pretty color lol but I have a pretty green one. Edit: I have finally used my cup during heavy menustration. I skipped using it on vacation because I didn't want to deal with something I'm not comfortable with while hiking and stuff. It's definitely necessary to be very comfortable with yourself. I find I have a little bit of trouble getting the cup to pop open after insertion but it after some maneuvering it does. Even on heavy days it doesn't really leak much but I pop it open and kind of pull down on it some to make a seal. I think the leaking is just the blood that is under the cup after insertion but it's a pink color and doesn't go through my panties or anything (I always wear black panties on my period). Removal requires two hands. It very much could be a very messy accident. I am a housewife and I do not go to a job so I do this in the bathroom naked. When I start working again I will probably buy the bigger cup but we'll see if this can hold a full first day of menustration. After a few hours on the first day I removed it mostly out of curiosity and it spilled on the floor so I still don't know if the small size is all I need. I am very happy with the comfort, I did not remove the stem and I use it to locate it inside of me. I am not worried about it getting lost. It does not cause me any discomfort and it is much less gross than a tampon when you need to go to the bathroom for other reasons than your period. I really hate when I have to go to the bathoom with a tampon in because the string hangs down and when you wipe, it goes up your butt. I usually remove my tampon every time I go to the bathoom but with this thing in, it doesn't get in the way. I heard pooping was difficult but I just found that I don't push quite as hard and it's not that weird. When I'm on my period, I don't need to push anyways. Edit 2: I decided to go ahead and purchase the larger one so I can wear it longer and maybe hike with it. It was a little annoying to wear the small one because I did have to change it every few hours on a heavy period but after my period is done being heavy, I almost don't need to wear anything. I wish I had just purchased the big one to begin with because it's not like I can give it away but oh well. I have a low cervix on my period so I wasn't sure but I think the bigger one will be fine because it's so soft. I will probably update after use. Edit 3: I am now happy I have both the big and small. I wear the small on that day when you think you will start your period, but you're not sure. Especially if I'm out. It's small enough it's not too bothersome on that day. I also wear it on light days and at night, although the bigger one could probably work on these days as well. I have gotten better at dealing with leaks. Cups work differently than tampons and they don't soak up blood so you have to take some extra precautions to prevent leaks (although the leaking isn't like a tampon leak unless your cup isn't big enough, even when I was leaking I could just wipe it away and not worry much). So I have found that if you wear a cup all the time, you will leak less. This means at night while sleeping. If not, you can put the cup in and then take a half bath for 15 minutes or so. This removes a lot of the excess blood. If you are short on time, you can wet your fingers with water and then rotate your fingers around the cup to remove any blood that may be around it, do it a few times. Leaking is pretty much only a problem on your heavy days, on light days, it's not an issue. Removal: I'm a lot better at removal. I can now get it every time in under a minute and I have little hands, although I am a bit limber which helped a lot at first lol but now it doesn't matter that much. I actually use a different technique for the big and small. So for both I hike up one leg on the bathtub or toilet with the lid down. I break the seal. I use the pointy part to locate and perhaps move it. For the small, I can reach the top of the cup and I pull it out from the top. It is easier to remove. Now, the large is more difficult to remove because I cannot reach the top of the cup when it is in place. Instead, I grip it from the bottom and pull it out from the bottom. Pressing down can help. When I first started using it, removal was kind of stressful and once I did fail and have to wait 10 minutes before trying again. But now I can remove it in a minute. I have never removed it in a public place but with the big one, I probably won't have to. If I anticipate I cannot make it home in less than 12 hours (and you might be able to get more than 12 hours out if it in a pinch depending on how heavy you are), I would wear thinx underwear and just wait until I got home, myself. Or maybe try removing it halfway in the day before it is very full because removing these things is messy and in a stall, I just can't imagine. One last precaution, these are very comfortable and you may forget you are wearing them. Especially near the end of your period when it is lighter. I didn't die but now my cup has a weird smell. I did a lot of things to the cup to make the smell better like washing it a lot, airing it out, and I soaked it in water that had a little bit of essential lavender oil in it (the only thing that worked), and then boiled it again. It still has a smell but it's an improvement. I'm sure the manufacturer would not suggest the essential oil thing but it still works and didn't irritate my body. I don't suggest doing this often to the cup, I'm not someone who tries to use scented things or anything. I was just desperate. I read some people set alarms to let them know when they need to change it, because you just don't feel like you're on your period and it's easy to forget.

My menstrual cup adventure began a little over a year ago. My first cup was the Lunette (model 1, for light-normal flow). It's important to note that I got that cup when I was on hormonal birth control which made my periods pretty light. I loved that cup for the first year, but for the past 4 periods or so, I've had constant leaking issues and I could not fix the problem. Not only that, but I've since switched to the Paragard copper IUD for birth control, so my periods are back to how they were pre-hormones, which are reasonably heavy. My Lunette was getting filled to the top in 4-5 hours which got to be really inconvenient because I prefer to not have to empty my cup while I'm at work. I took the popular "what cup should you get" test again, knowing that my periods are heavier nowadays and now knowing how high my cervix sits normally on my period. My results came back with this Saalt cup in the size regular, and I ordered it right away after being completely fed up with yet another pair of underwear getting ruined because my previous cup was leaking all over no matter what I did. So far, I love it! I LOVE how much "bigger" it is in comparison to my old cup. Not bigger in the sense that like, it'll be hard to put in - but bigger in that it can hold so much more. Granted my first cup was for light-normal flow while this one is for normal-heavy, but it's a welcome change either way. It's soft, very flexible, and super comfortable. No issues putting it in, and right away I felt confident that it won't be leaking after it popped open and I made sure there was good suction. I put it to the test the first day too, going to a VR arcade which involved a lot of bodily movement, running around town doing errands, and just in general doing some ridiculous aerobic moves in my home to make sure nothing got past. Clean underwear!! What an amazing sight! I wanted to add, for menstrual cups in general - I was someone who wore pads for every period before I got into cups. I couldn't use tampons because no matter what size, no matter how I put them in, I could FEEL them constantly, they dried me out so quickly, and I could never make it past a couple hours before starting to feel nauseous with them in. I thought that the menstrual cup would be the same story, but not at all. I literally cannot feel it in my body no matter what I'm doing, there is no nausea, and it lets my body stay regular and not get dried out with a wad of cotton soaking everything up. ALSO. For anyone curious about if you can use these when you have an IUD in - yes you can! If you're not sure, then talk to your doctor. But I got the green light from my gyno that it is totally fine to use a menstrual cup even if you have an IUD in, as long as you break the suction before pulling it out like you're supposed to - don't just YOINK that sucker out of there without breaking suction first. I love this cup and I will be recommending it!

La migliore coppetta che abbia fino ad oggi provato (è la terza che acquisto). La sua consistenza non troppo morbida le consente di ottenere subito l’effetto vuoto quando la metti e di rimanere bene in posizione senza perdite; è molto capiente e il gambo è sottile e piccolo, praticamente non si sente. Bellissimo anche il colore (azzurro), mentre le altre due che ho provato dopo un po’ tendevano ad ingiallire. Credo sia ideale per chi ha già confidenza con le coppette e in particolare per chi come me ha partorito più volte e quindi necessita di una coppetta meno morbida che altrimenti tende a spostarsi. Per me è da 10 e lode! (Perfino il sacchettino in stoffa è superchic :) )

es la primera que compro pero no tuve ningun problema como tuvieron otras amigas con otras copas, esta me parecio perfecto llego rapido y perfecto

Très souple et confortable, ça reste en place, très simple à utiliser une fois le coup de main pris.

Raccomandare una coppetta mestruale non é un compito semplice: ogni persona é diversa, diversa forza del pavimento pelvico, diversa altezza della cervice uterina durante il ciclo...sono tutte informazioni importanti nella scelta della corretta coppetta mestruale. Per schiarirvi un po' le idee (e se masticate un po' di inglese) vi consiglio di fare il test sul sito "Put a cup on it" in modo da poter essere indirizzare alla marca di coppette più adatte a voi. Ho scelto di comprare una coppetta Saalt proprio dopo aver fatto quel test, dato che era la prima raccomandazione datami...inoltre ho scelto la taglia S in quanto la mia cervice tende ad essere sempre un po' bassa, e la taglia regular mi avrebbe dato abbastanza fastidio. Il contenitore é davvero bellissimo e la coppetta lo é altrettanto (il colore é davvero delizioso!). Il gambo é estremamente morbido e grazie a questo non lo sento minimamente e quindi non ho neanche bisogno di tagliarlo. La coppetta si apre con facilità e il sigillo é estremamente robusto e non si rompe facilmente: per la prima volta dopo 6 anni (dove usavo un'altra coppetta) non ho avuto alcuna perdita durante i miei primi 2 cicli con la Saalt. Sono abituata a pendolare molto (devo cambiare diversi treni e autobus per arrivare in università) ma il sottovuoto creato non si é mai rotto ~ Posso solo dire che al momento ne sono assolutamente entusiasta! Cambierò la recensione in futuro se dovessi avere dei possibili problemi. Ps: la compagnia ha un servizio clienti a dir poco fantastico e saranno pronti a seguirvi passo a passo se mai doveste incontrare qualche problema 💕

Très bonne qualité.
