Frequently Asked Questions about Menstrual Cups
How do I choose my first menstrual cup?
Three factors: 1) Flow: light = size S, heavy = size L. 2) Childbirth: post-vaginal childbirth usually needs a wider/softer cup. 3) Cervix: low cervix = short cup, high cervix = long cup. Most brands include a size guide with an online test. If it's your first cup, start with size S/M.
Can you have intercourse with the menstrual cup in?
With a standard menstrual cup: it is not recommended during penetration (it can be uncomfortable and may lose the seal). With menstrual discs (lower profile): yes, they are designed for intercourse during your period. Loviux sponge tampons are the most comfortable alternative for sex during menstruation.
