Benefits of Using A MoonCup

- Never been linked to toxic shock syndrome (unlike tampons!)

"It's fab - I too used to say "Eeewww" at the thought of them but they are very popular on the continent - it's just the way we've been brought up. Anyway - I was a convert from day one!"

How Do You Use the Mooncup?
- Find a comfortable sitting, standing, squatting or kneeling position. Relax and take your time.
- Press the sides of the Mooncup menstrual cup together and then fold in half again.
- Hold the folded sides firmly together between thumb and forefinger of one hand. The single curved edge should be away from your palm.
- Stay relaxed. With your free hand gently separate the labia and push the curved edge of the folded Mooncup menstrual cup up into the vagina.
- Insert the Mooncup menstrual cup fully following the natural angle of your vagina. Aim towards the small of your back, not the top of your head. You do not need to push the Mooncup menstrual cup up high into the vagina, the vaginal muscle will keep it in place.
- Once the Mooncup menstrual cup is fully inserted grasp the base of the cup, not the stem, and rotate it once to ensure that it has fully unfolded.
Most women find that the stem is too long. You will need to remove the Mooncup menstrual cup and cut the stem to your own requirements.
It is important to keep your Mooncup clean. Wash it regularly with mild soap and hot water. It can be cleaned more thoroughly between periods.
What if We SHOW You How Easy It Is?
No, don't worry - this is NOT a graphic video. You don't need to have finished eating! Just a very simple demonstration of how the Mooncup works.
Which Size
The Mooncup is available in two sizes.
Size A measures 46mm in diameter and 50mm in length.
Size B measures 43 mm in diameter and 50mm in length.
Both sizes have a pull stem 21mm long, which you can trim to the length that is right for you.
Size A is recommended for women who have given birth vaginally or who have had a caesarean section and are aged 30 or above.
Size B is recommended for women who have not given birth or who have had a caesarean section and are aged below 30.
Please ensure that you select the correct size. For hygiene reasons we cannot exchange Mooncups once they have been dispatched.
Success Stories/Testimonials taken from TimesOnline
After years of seeing the mooncup sticker in public toilets,I finally went and bought one last week. One of the best purchases I've ever made! It's far more comfortable than tampons or pads, you can wear it longer, and not even a hint of a leak! Much less messy than tampons as well.

I had one years ago, and when I needed to replace it couldn't find another one... Now I have one again and I must say it's as brilliant as I remember. I cycle for my commute to work and it was absolute bliss not to worry about pads and tampons and leaking. Mooncup rules!
Kat, New Malden,
I have just started using one and wish I'd discovered it years ago. I now have an uninterrupted night's sleep, and don't have to keep checking for leaks. I use a disabled toilet when i'm out; they have sinks in them to wash hands before and wash mooncup and hands afterwards. cheaper to buy online
Rose, Northampton,
I've had my mooncup for about a year now. My mum had one first and when she told me about I thought it sounded disgusting but now I have my own my view has totally changed. Admittedly I don't use it all of the time because I find it a bit awkward to clean it when I'm out and about, but it is great!
Lauren, Walsall,
I've been using a mooncup for nearly three years and find it to be the best thing I have ever discovered. It has saved me loads of money and is ecologically friendly. More women should give it a try they will be surprised at its efficiency and how comfortable and dependable it is!

I tried my Mooncup for the first time yesterday. I was sure it was going to be tricky / messy / awkward but it was not. I'm totally stunned at how simple the whole thing is. I've had no leaks, no pain ( I did trim the stem) and am already totally converted. YIPPEE - no more tampons and pads!!
