GlupCup! - Menstrual cup created in Spain
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!
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.
