Menstrual cup selection tips

If you’re still unsure of which period cup brand to choose, these tips might help you make an informed decision. It helps to consider your anatomy, lifestyle, and budget when choosing a cup.

Tip #1 – Check your cervix position

The most important advice for any woman looking to buy her first period cup is to learn how to check cervix position. This is probably the most significant factor in choosing a cup. If you have a low cervix and buy a cup that is too long, it will constantly slip out and be uncomfortable. If you have a high cervix and purchase a cup that is too short, you may find removal more difficult.

Tip #2 – Consider the size of your vaginal canal

Teens, or women who know they have a small vaginal canal, should opt for the teen size cups. These are smaller in diameter and easier to insert for young girls beginning their cup journey.

Tip #3 – Choose a cup suitable for your pelvic floor

If you have a weak pelvic floor, a partial prolapse, or have any degree of incontinence (avid urine leakage when sneezing, laughing, jumping, etc), then you should generally opt for wider and shorter ‘low cervix’ cups such as the Juju Model 4. These cups are wider and will be less likely to leak for women with weaker pelvic floor tone or a low to mid-height cervix.

Tip #4 – Consider softer cups

If you are prone to UTIs (Urinary Tract Infections), then you may find a softer cup more suitable. It will place less pressure on the urethra, ensuring you can adequately empty your bladder. Good options are the Saalt SoftMe Luna Soft, and Super Jennie cups. These are also good cups for women who find they can usually feel a menstrual cup when it is inserted, or who feel any pain or pressure when using a cup.

Tip #5 – Consider firm cups

If you are a particularly fit person or have very strong pelvic floor muscles from muscle-toning activities, then you should consider a firm cup such as the Me Luna Sport. Strong Pelvic Floor muscles will be less likely to ‘squash’ the rim of firmer cups and reduce the possibility of leaking.

Period underwear and reusable pads

We also carry a range of period underwear and washable pads for women who would like ‘peace of mind’ when wearing a menstrual cup. For teens who do not wish to begin their cup journey just yet, period underwear and cloth pads are also useful for the beginning and end of your period to handle spotting. In this case, the Pelvi Period Undies are a great budget-friendly option. Alternatively, the WUKA period pants are high-quality, high-capacity pants.

Menstrual cup accessories

Choose from a range of menstrual cup cleaners that are free from oils and harmful chemicals. Using the wrong soap to clean your cup has the potential to affect the integrity of menstrual cup silicone, reducing its lifespan. Cup wipes and the Hello Go Spray are also useful for cleaning your cup while out and about, or when unable to access clean water.

If boiling your cup on the stove is not your preference, you can choose to microwave sterilise your cup using the Ruby Steriliser or a microwave steriliser bag. While many cup brands now manufacture their own cup cleaner, you can typically use any brand of cleaner on any brand of cup.

Frequently asked questions:

The best menstrual cup for beginners is usually a mini, small, or teen-sized cup. The following brands are a good starting point:

  1. PelviCup for teens
  2. Saalt Teen Cup
  3. Hello Cup

The best menstrual cup for a heavy flow is the Super Jennie Cup. The large and wide design of the cup allows it to carry around 10ml more liquid than most large or extra-large cups.  This means women with a heavy flow can still get a full day of wear for up to 8 hours. Menstrual discs also have a very high capacity, however, if allowed to become too full, they can occasionally dislodge and leak.
