What is it?
The Mooncup is a reusable menstrual cup. It is about two inches long
and is made from soft silicone rubber. It is worn internally like a
tampon but simply collects menstrual fluid rather than absorbing.
Unlike tampons the Mooncup is not a disposable product, so you only
need to buy one.
The Mooncup will hold 30ml of fluid, which is roughly one third of
the average total produced during each period. A gentle seal is formed
with the vaginal walls allowing menstrual fluid to pass into the
Mooncup without leakage or odour.
Women find that they need to empty the Mooncup less frequently than they would change towels or tampons.
Correctly inserted, the Mooncup is so comfortable that you will
forget it exists. It may take a little practice at first as you need to
find the angle and position that is right for you.
The Mooncup can safely be used overnight and is great for all sports, swimming and traveling.
