We do hear it come up quite often; women who have experienced the menstrual cup sinking down while wearing it. A menstrual cup is held up by your pelvic floor muscles and by the vacuum effect applied during insertion. <\/span> When your menstrual cup sinks down, it can be very annoying because you can feel the cup much better. This is because you only have sensory nerves at the tip of your vagina. Therefore, this explains why you should not feel a cup when it is properly placed. In addition, the cup also works less well when it is lower in the vagina, because the vacuum can be broken more quickly, which can lead to leaking. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

How come my menstrual cup is sinking down?<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h1>\n

One explanation could be that you have weakened pelvic floor muscles and, as a result, the cup sags down when worn. Some women suffer from this after childbirth. Want to know more about using a menstrual cup after pregnancy? Then we definitely recommend reading this blog<\/a>. <\/span> There are exercises you can do to exercise your pelvic floor muscles, watch a video<\/a> of exercises here<\/span>. It could also be due to the size of your menstrual cup, have you already given birth? If so, you may need a larger cup. You hear conflicting advice when it comes to the hardness of the cup. What we would advise is to choose a cup with a firm rim. This rim can help the cup stay in place better. Did you know that our Beppy Cup<\/a> features a firm rim? Because of the inner wall of our Beppy Cup<\/a>, the rim is extra strengthened. <\/span><\/p>\n

The disadvantage of a traditional menstrual cup<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n

An annoying side effect of a traditional menstrual cup sinking down is that you begin to feel the stalk. If this bothers you a lot, you might consider cutting off the stalk or wearing the cup inside out. However, this will make it more difficult to remove the cup because you won’t be able to pull it out by the stalk. If this prevents you from reaching the cup, we recommend that you tighten your pelvic floor muscles while sitting on the toilet. This way the cup will move downward. Not a fan of the stalk? Then we recommend you try our Beppy Cup. Unlike traditional menstrual cups, our Beppy Cup<\/a> has a unique removal loop that allows you to properly remove the cup. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
