How do I stop my Mooncup from rising up?
First, make sure that your Mooncup is positioned as low as it will comfortably sit. To read more about where the Mooncup menstrual cup should sit, go to our FAQ on Positioning
Try improving the seal by:
• Tensing around your Mooncup with your vaginal muscles a few times
• Running your finger along the rim when inserted, checking that it’s fully open
• Twisting the Mooncup a few times
• Experimenting with folding methods
If you are finding removal difficult, go to our FAQ on Removal
If you have tried following these tips and are still having problems, please contact Mooncup Advice.
I’ve been using the Mooncup since April this year (8 menstrual cycles), and it’s so so magical. Of course at first it needed some getting used to (re: insertion and removal), but after that, my period comes and goes like a breeze. As I don’t have cramps whatsoever, sometimes I even forget I’m on my period when I’m wearing the cup!
