In this blog, we share 6 practical menstrual cup tips that can help you use a menstrual cup with confidence!
Are you tired of buying pads and tampons every month? Or are you worried about the safety of tampons for your health? We understand! That’s why we developed the Beppy Cup and other sustainable, reusable menstrual products as an alternative to tampons and pads. Reusable products are not only better for your long-term health, but they also help reduce waste because you can use them over and over again. Instead of buying products that you have to replace often and end up in landfills, choose a menstrual cup that is durable, more economical, environmentally friendly, healthier, comfortable and reliable than traditional menstrual products. What are you waiting for!
There are many menstrual cups on the market, but it is important to choose a reliable brand. Cups made of medical silicone are very popular because they are safe for your body, remain hygienic and last a long time. The Beppy Cup is a favorite of many women, thanks to its flexible design and high quality medical silicone, which ensures optimal comfort and fit.
Inserting and removing a menstrual cup can seem a bit tricky at first, but after some practice, it comes naturally and is as easy as tampons. Fold the cup into a C-shape to make it easier to insert, and make sure it is positioned properly so it does not cause discomfort. Removing the cup may also take some practice. Gently squeeze the bottom of the cup to loosen the vacuum so you can remove it without difficulty. Women who have used the menstrual cup for a while often say that the process ends up being much easier than they thought at first.
Because a menstrual cup is reusable, it is important to clean it properly. After each period of use, clean the cup with warm water and mild soap; you can use our Natural Cup Soap for this purpose. This prevents bacteria from developing and ensures that the cup remains hygienic. Women who have been using the menstrual cup for a longer period of time also recommend boiling the cup out regularly or using a sterilizer. In our assortment you will find the Steamer+Sterilizer for the best cleaning!
As with any new experience, it takes some time to get used to using a menstrual cup. It’s normal to feel a little unsure at first, but give yourself time to get the hang of it. Many women say that after a few practices, they gained a sense of confidence and felt much more comfortable with their menstrual cup. It is important to be patient with yourself so you can enjoy all the benefits the menstrual cup offers.
Many women worry about leaks when they first use a menstrual cup. But don’t worry! The chance of leakage is minimal if you insert the cup correctly. You need to change a menstrual cup much less often than a tampon, which also reduces the chance of leaking. However, if you’re not quite sure yet, you can wear a panty liner in the beginning for extra security. After a while, you’ll find that you no longer have to worry about leaking!
Switching to reusable tampons, cups and underwear offers environmental, cost and health benefits. Want to receive more tips on menstrual cups? Or about our other products, feel free to contact us!
