What is a menstrual cup?

Let us introduce our cup in a nutshell

The LUNACUP menstrual cup is a modern and eco-friendly care equipment for a modern, vibrant woman who lives her life to the fullest. The cup is a solution for every woman who puts her health and comfort during the period in the first place.

What it is made of? Do I feel it inside when it is inserted?

The menstrual cup is made of medical-grade silicone and like tampon it is inserted into the vagina. It is very soft and flexible and able to adapt to the vagina of every woman. And that is why you won’t feel it inside.

How does it work and how often do I need to empty it?

The cup collects the blood inside the vagina (unlike tampon which absorbs it) and after 4 to 12 hours it has to be removed (depends on the flow intensity) and it is emptied into the toilet. It is reinserted after rinsing with water. Contrary to the opinion of women who have never tried the cup before, the emptying is quick and clean. The menstrual cup is able to collect 2-3 times more menstrual blood than tampon is able to absorb.

How many cups do I need?

You will use one single cup throughout your whole monthly cycle. After your period is over you will easily sterilize the cup and store it safely in the cotton pouch. The cup is then ready for the next period.

The lifespan of the LUNACUP menstrual cup

You can use a single cup for more than 5 years and its lifespan is more than 10 years.

How come the cup can be used repeatedly for so long?

Because the cup is made of a material which antibacterial by its nature and can be easily and regularly sterilized at home or while on the road. That is why the LUNACUP menstrual cup is always 100% clean.

100 % eco-friendly product

Because you can use it repeatedly you will save a significant sum of money and help the environment at the same time. The menstrual cup LUNACUP is as green as a green product can be.

What activities can I do with the inserted cup?

You can do whatever activity you like (jogging, cycling, yoga, swimming, sauna, etc.). You can do any water-related activity without a limitation.

No more shopping for tampons and pads.

You don’t have to keep an eye stock anymore!

No more bin hunting!

With the menstrual cup, you will never experience often awkward searching for the bin to dispose of the tampon or pad.

  •  You can’t feel the inserted cup and because it is fully inside your body, you feel comfortable and safe.
  • It has your back whole night (up to 12 hours). It needs to be emptied in the morning and evening only with the light flow.
  • The cup is impervious to leaks because it is firmly pressed against the vaginal wall.
