FAQs
How often should I change the menstrual cup?
The Win Win Menstrual Cup can be worn for up to 8 hours, depending on your flow. It is recommended to empty and rinse it at least every 4-8 hours.
How do I sterilize the cup?
Sterilize the cup by boiling it in water for 3-5 minutes before its first use and at the end of each menstrual cycle. Ensure it is fully submerged and does not touch the bottom of the pot.
Can I use the menstrual cup with an IUD?
While many people use menstrual cups with an IUD, there is a small risk of dislodging the IUD due to suction. It is recommended to break the seal completely before removal and consult with your healthcare provider if you have concerns.
How long does a menstrual cup last?
With proper care and cleaning, a medical-grade silicone menstrual cup can last for several years, often up to 10 years.
What is the difference between Size A and Size B?
Size B is typically recommended for individuals who have given birth vaginally or have a stronger pelvic floor. Size A is generally for those who have not given birth vaginally or have a weaker pelvic floor. Always refer to the brand's specific sizing guide for the most accurate fit.
Can I swim or exercise with the menstrual cup?
Yes, the menstrual cup is designed to create a secure seal, making it suitable for swimming, exercising, and other physical activities without leakage.
What should I do if I experience irritation?
If you experience irritation, ensure you are using unscented, mild soap for cleaning. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. The cup is made from medical-grade silicone, which is generally hypoallergenic.
Troubleshooting
Cup is difficult to insert
Ensure your vaginal muscles are relaxed. Try different folding methods. Lubrication (water-based only) can sometimes help.
Cup is difficult to remove
Relax your body and bear down as if having a bowel movement. Ensure you are pinching the base firmly to break the seal before pulling. Do not pull on the stem alone.
Leaking during wear
Check that the cup has fully opened and created a seal. Ensure it is positioned correctly. The cup may be too full or the wrong size/firmness for your flow or anatomy.
Discomfort or pressure
The cup may be inserted too high or is not fully open. Try removing and reinserting. Ensure you are using the correct size.
Cup has a persistent odor
Ensure the cup is thoroughly cleaned after each use and sterilized properly between cycles. Boiling for longer periods or soaking in a diluted hydrogen peroxide solution may help, followed by thorough rinsing.
