Instructions for putting on the menstrual cup for the first time

Choose your menstrual cup size: we have two available!


To choose the size of your menstrual cup, you must look at two factors: whether or not you have had a vaginal birth and your age.
  • Size S: you have never had a vaginal birth and you are under 30 years old.
  • Size L: you have had a vaginal birth or you are over 30 years old.

Keep in mind that every woman is different and these general rules may not work for you. If you need more information, we will explain everything about GlupCup sizes! in this article .

 

Sterilize the menstrual cup before using it


To sterilize the menstrual cup, just leave it in boiling water for 3 - 5 minutes . You can do this in two ways: boil water in a saucepan with the cup inside, boil water and pour it into our sterilizer (you will find it in the GlupCup box!) with the cup inside or pour water into the sterilizer with the cup inside and put it in the microwave at maximum power. Never use the menstrual cup without first sterilizing it!

Once you have done this, it is ready to be placed. Between changes during the menstrual cycle, you just have to rinse it with water and reinsert it. Once your period ends, you can sterilize it immediately or just before using it again the following month. Then, store it in our breathable fabric bag to keep it in good condition.
 

Fold, insert and place the menstrual cup correctly


To insert the menstrual cup into your vagina, simply fold it in one of the three ways we recommend below. To begin with, the best is “the rocket”, but “the crescent” is the one that will open the easiest inside you. If you want, you can moisten it so that it fits better.

Use the posture with which you feel most comfortable (standing, sitting, squatting, etc.). Then, insert it until it is completely inside and run a finger along the vaginal walls to check that there are no folds and that it is well attached to them. If you notice that it is bent, you can turn it slightly to see if it swells and tighten the sides.
Remember that if the "tail" bothers you, you can cut it.
 
TIP!: Practice when you don't have your period. Unlike tampons, the cup does not absorb your vaginal fluid so you can use it whenever you want, whether you are menstruating or not, because it does not dry out the vagina. In fact, whenever you think you're going to get your period, you can get it before and you're safe.
 

Take out the menstrual cup carefully


Start by changing the cup every 4 hours, and depending on the day and the accumulated menstrual flow you will know how long you should wear it. You can change it in the morning and at night, but you should never wear it for more than 12 hours !

After 5 to 12 hours (depending on your menstrual flow), you will need to remove the cup. Get in a comfortable position, locate the tail and press the base of the cup to release the vacuum (little trick: push as if you want to pee). Keep it face up so nothing comes out and... that's it!

Then clean it and put it back on.
