Saalt Menstrual Cup

Saalt menstrual cups - Period care simplified!
The Saalt cup is a reusable and natural method for managing your period. The Saalt cup collects fluid rather than absorbing it, which helps prevent vaginal dryness and discomfort. This is a softer rimmed and average sized cup which would be suitable for most women.
Saalt Cup features:
- Reliable, leak-free protection for up to 12 hours, including overnight. Can hold 3-4 tampons worth of menstrual fluid.
- The soft and flexible design makes it a comfortable cup, that moulds to your unique shape
- Matte finish and grip rings at base of cup for easier removal
- Naturally non toxic and odour free
- Made from 100% medical grade silicone and does not contain BPA or Latex
- Stem can be trimmed to desired length
- Reusable for up to 10 years
- Helps maintain natural vaginal pH levels
- Hypoallergenic and chemical free
- Cup storage bag included
- Made in the USA
- Vegan
- FDA registered and compliant
The Saalt Cup is also available in a Duo Pack which includes one of each size Saalt.
Saalt Cup sizing:
The Saalt Cup is available in two sizes. Most women can successfully use both sizes of Saalt Cup, the small for lighter days and the regular for heavier days, but one size may be more comfortable and more suitable depending on your particular situation. For those under the age of 18, the Teen size Saalt may be more suitable.
Small: Suitable for women with a light to normal flow (2-3 tampons) and a low to moderate cervix height.
Dimensions: 41mm diameter | 70mm total length (including stem) | 25ml capacity
Regular: A high capacity cup that is suitable for women with a normal to heavy flow (3-4 tampons) and a moderate or high cervix height.
Dimensions: 46mm diameter | 70mm total length (including stem) | 30ml capacity
While your level of flow is an important indicator for the Saalt cup, the following factors should also be considered:
- Petite physique: You may consider starting off with a Saalt Small
- Tampon size: If you have only ever used mini tampons, you may wish to consider the teen size Saalt
- Vaginal insertion: If you haven’t comfortably inserted anything in your vagina before, we recommend the size small
- Vaginal Birth: If you’ve given birth vaginally, you may prefer the Saalt Regular
- Physical Activity: Active users with strong pelvic floor muscles may prefer the Saalt Small.
Please check the position of your cervix to ensure you select the correct Saalt Cup size. Because your cervix can change position during the month, it is best to check it at the beginning of your period.
The first time you use your Saalt cup and at the end of each cycle, it is recommended to boil it for 4-5 minutes in order to properly sanitize it.
- Check: Before inserting your Saalt cup, first check that the four air holes in the top rim of the cup are clear and free from any debris.
- Prepare: Wash your hands and thoroughly rinse off any soap residue.
- Fold: Decide on a fold. The most common folds for inserting a menstrual cup are the C-fold, Punch-down fold, and the 7-fold.
- Insert: With your cup folded and held firmly just below the upper rim, slide it up and back at a 45 degree angle towards the tip of your tailbone. Your cup should be completely inside the vaginal canal but sitting lower than a tampon. Your cup is sitting in the right place when the rim is below or around your cervix.
- Position: Release the cup. It should then pop open and create a seal. To ensure this seal has been created, rotate the cup by pinching the base (not just the stem) and turning it 360 degrees.
- Secure: To make sure the cup is fully opened and secure, run a finger around the base of the body of the cup to ensure there are no folds. You can also double-check the seal by gently tugging on the stem. If there is some resistance when you tug, you have a good seal.
- Remove: Wash your hands thoroughly. Stand, sit, or squat. Use the stem to locate the base of the cup. With your thumb and index finger, pinch the base of the cup to break the seal. Wiggle the cup side to side as you gently pull it out. Empty the contents of the cup into a sink or toilet.
- Rinse and Re-insert: Rinse your cup in cold water. You may also like to clean it with a menstrual cup cleanser. Your cup is then ready to re-insert.
Sanitize: At the start and end of your period, sterilise your cup by boiling it in a pot of water for 4-5 minutes or by using the Saalt microwave cup steriliser. The cup storage bag can be cleaned by adding to your regular load of laundry.
Wash: During your cycle, rinse your Saalt cup in cold water to help prevent staining. Use a menstrual cup cleanser to clean the cup. Avoid any cleanser containing fragrance or oils that may irritate your vagina or cause deterioration of your cup. Clear the four holes in the rim of the Saalt cup by running under water or gently poking with a toothpick.
Store: Allow your cup to air dry thoroughly and store in its bag (or other breathable container) until next needed. Some discolouration may occur over time. This is normal.
If your Saalt cup is broken or shows any sign of deterioration, it’s time to replace it.

Saalt Cup FAQ's
The stem of the Saalt cup is softer and more flexible than most other cups. This means it should not create any discomfort and can even be bent or folded if necessary. If the stem is protruding from the vagina, you can trim it with scissors to make it shorter.
Even though it is made from lovely soft silicone, the Saalt Cup is firm enough to use even if you have strong pelvic floor muscles. We would recommend this style over the Saalt soft, as your pelvic floor muscles will be less likely to ‘crush’ the rim and cause leaking.
If you have a sensitive bladder or suffer from regular UTI’s, then we would recommend the Saalt Soft. The soft version will be the least likely to apply pressure or cause discomfort to your bladder.
No, the Saalt cups do not have any measuring lines, however, as a guide, the Teen Saalt holds 15ml (1-2 tampons), the Saalt small holds 25ml (2-3 tampons), and the Saalt regular holds 30ml (3-4 tampons).
There are a few reasons why you may want two different size Saalt Cups:
- The larger for when your flow is heavy and the smaller for when your flow lessons.
- The larger for when your cervix is high and the smaller for if your cervix moves lower during your cycle.
- Unsure of which size will be the most suitable.
- You want to save money and give a cup to a friend or family member.
Whatever the need, Saalt have you covered with their range of Duo Boxes. They provide a more cost effective way to purchase two different sized or styled Saalt Cups.
To make it easier to differentiate between the different styles in the Saalt range, this regular style Saalt Cup is only available in Ocean Blue, Himalayan Pink, and Seafoam Green.

Hello! After a big research and read a lot of opinion about it I decided to bought this menstrual cup. I’ve had 3 from different brands before and I never had a problems with any of them. Maybe the problem is my body but I felt so uncomfortable with this menstruales cup inside me that I couldn’t use it.
Sarah L. (verified owner) –
I made the switch to a menstrual cup when my periods were too heavy to use pads. I wouldn’t go back. It takes a little adjustment but is far more comfortable than a pad and if inserted correctly then no leakage even overnight. (the first few times i used period underwear as well just in case). I have strong pelvic floor muscles and was worried a really soft cup would collapse but the saalt cup holds fine and is comfortable. Just follow all the helpful instructions and once in properly i dont even notice it.

Honestly this is the best decision I have ever made! Choosing the Saalt cup was the right decision and it’s that good that it’s almost like not having a period!

I love how soft and easy to use this cup is. I’ve had hard cups in the past and they become uncomfortable by the end of my cycle.
I don’t notice this cup at all and I love the colour. Very happy!
Rachel D. (verified owner) –
This was my first cup, after emailing Naomi, suggested this one as a first try. The blue is a really pretty colour, and it didnt take me too long to get the hang of it, it was quite easy to insert. I found the c fold the best for me. Easy to clean. I wore period undies as a back up, which i did leak a little in the night, but Im quite heavy.
My second cycle wearing it O trimmed the stem as I found it irrating, since more practice I have since discovered that I have a low cervix, and would feel the salt cup in, like it was almost popping out. I have since bought the hello low cervix cup- no stem- and suits me alot better. I find it not as easy to clean as the salt, and a little harder to insert, but Its getting easier. Would highly recommend both cups.

It was my first time using a cup and I was so surprised at how well it was working, I hardly noticed I had it in and no leaks! The green colour was so pretty too. It took a bit to get out but the Saalt Facebook page was a very helpful resource

This is the second cup I have purchased as the first one leaked all the time. This is a different shape and size and so far works much better. Happy with my purchase.

Wow. Why didn’t I start using this years ago?!? So happy with my purchase. The Saalt menstrual cup was neatly packaged, had decent information (tips for using), it looks nice and comes with a cute little pouch. It did seem large at first glance and I was worried I would struggle using it but it was really quite simple and with the guide I didn’t have any issues. Fantastic for using overnight and not having to worry about spills.

I have used this cup over two cycles. Like many have mentioned, being my first cup it took some time to learn and get used to it on my first cycle, however it was easier during my second cycle. The cup is very comfortable once inserted and it is made of high quality silicone.I highly recommend this cup especially for first time users, I will be purchasing more for back up

As a first time menstrual cup user I am very happy with the Saalt cup. It has been easy to use and much more convenient than packing a bunch of tampons/pads for my very heavy and frustratingly irregular period. I would happily recommend this to friends and family. Three periods in and I’m already saving money.

Saalt cups have been a life saver. I was interested in making the switch to menstrual cups for a while, and tried a few different brands initially and found them to be stiff, hard to use, not a great fit and could be uncomfortable. After reading about saalt cups I decided to give it one final try and am glad I did! Saalt cups are incredibly soft silicon, making it easy to insert and barely noticeable to wear. The stems are very soft making it comfortable even without trimming. The small size is a little shorter than most brands on the market too which I found made a big difference to fit. I’ve recommended this brand to many other people now.

This cup is comfortable and the soft green colour is just gorgeous. Makes me feel pretty during a gross “period” (pun intended). I have no regrets switching to the cup and encourage all women to consider it. Menstruation has never been easier. I used to hate getting my period. Whether it was tampons or pads, I hated the look, the smell, the leakages, and the constant need fo change them. I used to ruin bedsheets every month. My life has changed since the cup. No more accidents. Just pop it in and I’m good for 10 hours on average. I literally don’t have to think about my period anymore. It’s easy to wash and sterilise. I would never go back.

I used the Lunette menstrual cup for a year and had so many problems with it! I would get random air bubbles (which are uncomfortable) and unexplainable leaking is even when the cup is perfectly in place and sealed. After taking some quizzes and doing research, I decided to buy the Saalt cup (my third cup). At this point, I was quite frustrated and tempted to try another alternative period product. However, Saalt does not disappoint! I generally have a heavy flow that requires me to change the cup every 3-4 hours on the first few days of my period. With the Saalt cup, I found myself going up to 5 hours despite the cup having the same capacity as the Lunette. Night one I did experience some leakage (I had the cup in for 8 hours) but this can easily be solved by wearing period underwear. Overall, this cup definitely met my expectations. I feel a lot more secure on my period with this cup, the seal is tight and secure and I can’t feel it at all. Very happy with my purchase, and I would recommend to anyone having troubles with their current cup! ☺️

I switched from Nixit to Saalt because I found the former too messy. It’s been great – it’s small, easy to insert, and there was no leakage.

Amazing cup, comfortable and easy to use. Wish I started using one years ago, will never go back to tampons.
Jenna (verified owner) –
I like the Saalt cup, but I do wish it had measurement lines like my other cups. It has a good capacity for heavier days, and the stem is soft enough to not cause discomfort when it tilts towards my off-centre cervix. The firmness can make it a little difficult to remove but I’m getting the hang of it.
Tamara Y. (verified owner) –
Nice soft stem, I didn’t have to cut it but ended up cutting it just in case, it was slightly long for me but because it was soft was actually even more comfortable before cutting it than after, I would probably buy this cup again when I next need one and just won’t cut it. The cup has a better suction seal than my last cup and seems to fit me better. The only time it needs changing is when it is obviously full & needs changing anyway, apart from that there have been no leaks and most days i reach the time limit before it is full anyway! Very happy with my purchase and love the colour too!
Shannon (verified owner) –
Just used for the first time, found it easy to insert, but took a bit of practice to remove. But I was really surprised on how good it worked, especially for a first time user. I usually have a heavy flow and have to change tampons frequently, but found I did not need to remove the cup (minimum time 6hrs and maximum time of 11hrs) to even go to the toilet. Also had no problems sleeping with the cup in with no leakage. Definitely converted to using the cup permanently.
