Saalt Menstrual Cup – Reusable Period Cup – Made for Comfortable, Leak-Free Protection Up to 12 Hours – BPA & Latex Free – Includes Cup & Carry Bag (Regular, Ocean Blue)

***If it keeps leaking you might be placing it further in than you need to!!!*** Background info: I have a very very high cervix, strong pelvic muscles (I weightlift), and I purchased size small. How I use this comfortably: I fold the cup to insert (I use a punch down fold to create the smallest possible shape) and once it is inserted I twist the cup inside gently and it pops open very easily. I run a finger around the cup and feel its roundness to ensure it’s fully sealed and opened up. If it feels squished then it isn’t fully open and it will leak, so in that case I squish the cup and then it pops open. (Sometimes you can also just squat or stand up and it’ll pop open on its own). Now, where I was going wrong in the past was I was inserting it past the canal into the fornix. Please do yourself a favor and look up an anatomical diagram, it really helps. I thought that the further in the cup went the better it would seal. Turns out, many beginners also have this belief and it causes the cup to leak because it can’t suction properly if it’s misplaced in the wrong anatomical location. As someone with a high cervix, this fact was life changing and led me to enjoy using cups. High cervix friendly: I have an extremely high cervix and I find this cup very comfortable to use now that I have an understanding on how to properly use it. I actually trimmed the stem off entirely and can use this cup comfortably because you don’t actually have to insert it that deep. It is so easy to insert and use if you have the correct fit for you. I used the put a cup in it quiz online and it suggested this cup to me for reference. I also use the Saalt disc and quite enjoy that as well. I use the Saalt disc on heavy flow days and the cup on lighter days. Stem: Now, I find the stem annoying and uncomfortable so I cut it all off because you are not even meant to use it to pull it out per the brands instructions. The stem is only there to GUIDE your fingers to reach/find for the bottom of the cup to break the seal and remove. Therefore, I found it useless for me personally even as a high cervix user who can never even feel their cervix, it’s no joke over here. I got scared when I saw reviews of the stem breaking off, but I believe that is user error as I never had that issue removing the cup by breaking the seal, following the instructions on the paper that came with the product. Tugging on the stem could actually cause you pain because the cup has suction. Removal process: Very easy, it’s so straightforward to feel the bottom ridges of the cup and use that to grip gently and squish the bottom of the cup to break the seal. Then, I usually make it into a taco shape to remove it, it makes it super easy to remove (more comfortable than it is to remove a tampon). Strong pelvic muscle friendly: I weightlift heavy and workout very often and this cup has given me zero issues. I can use the Saalt regular disc and Saalt small cup with no issue at all and no leaks. I only ever leak when the cup is FULL. Therefore, I only use the cup on light days due to its smaller capacity. Beginner friendly: I think this cup is a great beginner’s option due to the fact that it is sturdier so it pops open easily without any effort. It can be difficult to tell when a cup is open or not as a beginner cup user. I 100% recommend taking quizzes online to see what cup or disc might work for you.

My menstrual cup adventure began a little over a year ago. My first cup was the Lunette (model 1, for light-normal flow). It's important to note that I got that cup when I was on hormonal birth control which made my periods pretty light. I loved that cup for the first year, but for the past 4 periods or so, I've had constant leaking issues and I could not fix the problem. Not only that, but I've since switched to the Paragard copper IUD for birth control, so my periods are back to how they were pre-hormones, which are reasonably heavy. My Lunette was getting filled to the top in 4-5 hours which got to be really inconvenient because I prefer to not have to empty my cup while I'm at work. I took the popular "what cup should you get" test again, knowing that my periods are heavier nowadays and now knowing how high my cervix sits normally on my period. My results came back with this Saalt cup in the size regular, and I ordered it right away after being completely fed up with yet another pair of underwear getting ruined because my previous cup was leaking all over no matter what I did. So far, I love it! I LOVE how much "bigger" it is in comparison to my old cup. Not bigger in the sense that like, it'll be hard to put in - but bigger in that it can hold so much more. Granted my first cup was for light-normal flow while this one is for normal-heavy, but it's a welcome change either way. It's soft, very flexible, and super comfortable. No issues putting it in, and right away I felt confident that it won't be leaking after it popped open and I made sure there was good suction. I put it to the test the first day too, going to a VR arcade which involved a lot of bodily movement, running around town doing errands, and just in general doing some ridiculous aerobic moves in my home to make sure nothing got past. Clean underwear!! What an amazing sight! I wanted to add, for menstrual cups in general - I was someone who wore pads for every period before I got into cups. I couldn't use tampons because no matter what size, no matter how I put them in, I could FEEL them constantly, they dried me out so quickly, and I could never make it past a couple hours before starting to feel nauseous with them in. I thought that the menstrual cup would be the same story, but not at all. I literally cannot feel it in my body no matter what I'm doing, there is no nausea, and it lets my body stay regular and not get dried out with a wad of cotton soaking everything up. ALSO. For anyone curious about if you can use these when you have an IUD in - yes you can! If you're not sure, then talk to your doctor. But I got the green light from my gyno that it is totally fine to use a menstrual cup even if you have an IUD in, as long as you break the suction before pulling it out like you're supposed to - don't just YOINK that sucker out of there without breaking suction first. I love this cup and I will be recommending it!

This is the first time I have worn a cup. I didn't know which brand to buy but I knew I wanted a flexible one. I watched an informative youtube video first so I was aware of the need to "break the seal" before removal, I'm happy I watched it first because the video said if you don't break the seal it is painful. Even watching the video, removing was not super easy although not super hard either. I don't think I would want to remove it in a public bathroom although I'm sure after a year of practice, it won't be so weird. I made sure to get a very flexible one which this one is. I like it, it's much more comfortable than a tampon because it doesn't dry you out. I think I did leak some, I probably should have purchased the larger one because I think that one would leak less but I have light periods and am a baby about new things. Unfortunately it didn't arrive before my period started so I only got to try it out about 2.5 days in which is when my period begins to lighten quickly. I wore it for probably 8 hours before I took it out and it was about a quarter full. I can't imagine removing it full but I guess we'lll see how that goes in the future. It's weird to be 34 and learn new ways to take care of menstruation. I'm almost like what's the point, but I probably still have 10 more years of periods. I also bought thinx underwear which was much more expensive than this cup but also, come on, who wants to sleep with anything inside of you if they don't have to? It's so great that women now have so many options to choose from, so much better from the days of tampons vs. pads. The only thing I have to say is I wanted a black one to keep it from staining and like who cares if it's a pretty color lol but I have a pretty green one. Edit: I have finally used my cup during heavy menustration. I skipped using it on vacation because I didn't want to deal with something I'm not comfortable with while hiking and stuff. It's definitely necessary to be very comfortable with yourself. I find I have a little bit of trouble getting the cup to pop open after insertion but it after some maneuvering it does. Even on heavy days it doesn't really leak much but I pop it open and kind of pull down on it some to make a seal. I think the leaking is just the blood that is under the cup after insertion but it's a pink color and doesn't go through my panties or anything (I always wear black panties on my period). Removal requires two hands. It very much could be a very messy accident. I am a housewife and I do not go to a job so I do this in the bathroom naked. When I start working again I will probably buy the bigger cup but we'll see if this can hold a full first day of menustration. After a few hours on the first day I removed it mostly out of curiosity and it spilled on the floor so I still don't know if the small size is all I need. I am very happy with the comfort, I did not remove the stem and I use it to locate it inside of me. I am not worried about it getting lost. It does not cause me any discomfort and it is much less gross than a tampon when you need to go to the bathroom for other reasons than your period. I really hate when I have to go to the bathoom with a tampon in because the string hangs down and when you wipe, it goes up your butt. I usually remove my tampon every time I go to the bathoom but with this thing in, it doesn't get in the way. I heard pooping was difficult but I just found that I don't push quite as hard and it's not that weird. When I'm on my period, I don't need to push anyways. Edit 2: I decided to go ahead and purchase the larger one so I can wear it longer and maybe hike with it. It was a little annoying to wear the small one because I did have to change it every few hours on a heavy period but after my period is done being heavy, I almost don't need to wear anything. I wish I had just purchased the big one to begin with because it's not like I can give it away but oh well. I have a low cervix on my period so I wasn't sure but I think the bigger one will be fine because it's so soft. I will probably update after use. Edit 3: I am now happy I have both the big and small. I wear the small on that day when you think you will start your period, but you're not sure. Especially if I'm out. It's small enough it's not too bothersome on that day. I also wear it on light days and at night, although the bigger one could probably work on these days as well. I have gotten better at dealing with leaks. Cups work differently than tampons and they don't soak up blood so you have to take some extra precautions to prevent leaks (although the leaking isn't like a tampon leak unless your cup isn't big enough, even when I was leaking I could just wipe it away and not worry much). So I have found that if you wear a cup all the time, you will leak less. This means at night while sleeping. If not, you can put the cup in and then take a half bath for 15 minutes or so. This removes a lot of the excess blood. If you are short on time, you can wet your fingers with water and then rotate your fingers around the cup to remove any blood that may be around it, do it a few times. Leaking is pretty much only a problem on your heavy days, on light days, it's not an issue. Removal: I'm a lot better at removal. I can now get it every time in under a minute and I have little hands, although I am a bit limber which helped a lot at first lol but now it doesn't matter that much. I actually use a different technique for the big and small. So for both I hike up one leg on the bathtub or toilet with the lid down. I break the seal. I use the pointy part to locate and perhaps move it. For the small, I can reach the top of the cup and I pull it out from the top. It is easier to remove. Now, the large is more difficult to remove because I cannot reach the top of the cup when it is in place. Instead, I grip it from the bottom and pull it out from the bottom. Pressing down can help. When I first started using it, removal was kind of stressful and once I did fail and have to wait 10 minutes before trying again. But now I can remove it in a minute. I have never removed it in a public place but with the big one, I probably won't have to. If I anticipate I cannot make it home in less than 12 hours (and you might be able to get more than 12 hours out if it in a pinch depending on how heavy you are), I would wear thinx underwear and just wait until I got home, myself. Or maybe try removing it halfway in the day before it is very full because removing these things is messy and in a stall, I just can't imagine. One last precaution, these are very comfortable and you may forget you are wearing them. Especially near the end of your period when it is lighter. I didn't die but now my cup has a weird smell. I did a lot of things to the cup to make the smell better like washing it a lot, airing it out, and I soaked it in water that had a little bit of essential lavender oil in it (the only thing that worked), and then boiled it again. It still has a smell but it's an improvement. I'm sure the manufacturer would not suggest the essential oil thing but it still works and didn't irritate my body. I don't suggest doing this often to the cup, I'm not someone who tries to use scented things or anything. I was just desperate. I read some people set alarms to let them know when they need to change it, because you just don't feel like you're on your period and it's easy to forget.

I had several people highly recommend period cups. So I thought why not? You can tell the Saalt Cup is well made, it came in beautiful packaging, and the included instructions were understandable and encouraging. The cup was easy enough to get in (the 7 fold worked better for me than the C), and it was extremely comfortable once in place. I had no leaks while it was in use and was overall very happy. The only issue I had was that I was not able to remove my cup. A few years ago I had a LEEP procedure and a lot of my cervix was removed. Because I was not able to get my cup out and I had passed the recommended 12-hour usage I went to see my OBGYN. They also had a hard time getting it removed because it was so far up and the section was so strong. After using some tools it was safely removed. Once out they let me know that because of the previous procedure it was not recommended I try using a cup again. I wanted to share so that other LEEP/Cone ladies know that they might run into some challenges when trying to remove; but that will also depend on how much of your cervix has been removed.

I love this cup! I have endometriosis. So, I bleed SO MUCH during my period that I often just bleed past tampons and I have to change my pads very frequently! Plus I often pass large clots or tissue (part of having endo) and Tampons don’t really absorb those. I’ve tried a lot of period products. I have very sensitive skin, making regular tamps & pads not an option. I would break out in irritation bumps and swell any time I tried. So I switched to organic tamps and pads. It got rid of the irritation bumps. However, My periods are so long, I bleed so much, and I have to change them so frequently that it was leaving my vagina sore (raw feeling). I was really struggling! I tried the Diva cup first and it was too long and too firm of a cup for me. I heard people raving about the Saalt cup, so I thought I’d give it a try. Bonus: it’s about half the price of a lot of cups and the company is female owned and primarily female operated. They’re big on educating people about their cycles and the impact that femi products have on the environment. So I bought one. It came in a day ahead of schedule and the packaging is beautiful! It makes you feel a little better about your period quite frankly. It comes with instructions on how to use and properly clean it. Also, there is a really cute little, canvas, cup storage baggie. I got it on my 2nd try! I prefer the “C fold”. It’s easiest for beginners in my opinion. I didn’t have any issues with it not opening or me feeling my cup in me. It was awesome! I only had to change it every 12 hours instead of every hr! Sign me up! I love it! ****A couple of tips from my experience: Boil your cup for 5 min before and after your cycle. * If you’re having a hard time placing you’re cup, relax and take a few deep breaths before trying aging. If you’re struggling you could be accidentally tensing up. *I recommend emptying your cup in the toilet but placing it back inside of you while you’re in the bathtub. That way it’s ok to make a mess. * To avoid any dripping from blood that was already on the walls of your vagina when you placed your cup... I always get in the tub and before placing my cup, I run water and use my finger to kind of “scoop out” any blood that I feel. Then I place my cup. This will save your underwear. * If you keep having leaking problems: check your suction once the cup is placed. Also, if your like me and your Cervix are at a slight tilt... you may need to tip your cup a little more towards one direction. In my case I have to tip my cup a little bit more towards my take bone (downward). Make sure you are not accidentally suctioning the cup to your Cervix. It’s uncomfortable plus you will have leaking! * And my final tip is about removing your cup. Don’t freak out if you “don’t feel it or can’t find it”. It can’t float away! Just take a few deep breaths to relax your vagina, squat down as if you’re crouching and then push like you would if you were trying to poop. Doing this causes your body to push your cup downward. From there you can use your pointer and thumb to reach in and squeeze the base of your cup. You will feel the suction break and then you can remove. Enjoy your cup, be patient with yourself, it’s a learning process, and you will catch on!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I absolutely love this menstrual cup! I decided to go with the smaller size to help my body readjust to using cups again, and it was the perfect choice. It’s comfortable, easy to use, and I’ve had no issues at all. The quality is great, and it gives me so much peace of mind compared to other products. I’m really happy with this purchase and will definitely keep using it. Highly recommend for anyone considering making the switch or getting back into using menstrual cups!

I’ve used this my past two cycles, and I got to say I’m really glad I gave this a go and tried it. I did a lot of YouTubing how-tos and practiced using it not on my cycle. I was having a hard time getting the suction to work, and it wasn’t sealing. I was using the C fold method initially, and was having some leaks. I switched to the punch down method and got a seal immediately. It’s a little scary the first time because you gently tug on the stem and it’s IN THERE. Removing is a bit of a learning curve. I recommend having shorter nails during your cycle if you intend to use a cup, as removal can be painful. It takes a few times practicing removing it so it doesn’t spill (I recommend emptying and changing it at home or in a private single bathroom). I had a few spills! Nothing crazy but they do recommend first removing it in the shower to get comfortable with it. For staining, I always rinse in cold water first, to wash it out and then use hot water as it’s a little more comfortable reinserting it. (They also recommend you boil the cup to sterilize it *not touching the pot bottom* after each cycle to ensure that the cup is clean) I use an unscented soap to wash it in between changes if I feel the rinse isn’t enough. To get proper suction, you will see that there are tiny little holes around the lip of the cup, and when you go to reinsert it, make sure these holes are clear and don’t have any stuff in them. They are what creates the seal and prevents the cup shifting and leaking. What I’ve liked the most about this cup is the seal once you get it TO seal is strong. I’ve had no issues with leaks (just a little spotting from the remaining liquid). It isn’t as messy as a pad when sleeping and you don’t have to worry about changing a tampon in the middle of the night, so I really enjoy that part. As far as dryness,Towards the end of my cycle, when I would use a tampon I would get very dry. With the cup I don’t get dry. I’ve used the organic tampons my whole life so I’ve never had issues with tampons except swimming and dryness, and I prefer the cup to even the fancy tampons. Drawbacks; It isn’t virtually undetectable depending on your anatomy. I found that I needed to place my cup higher up for it to be comfortable. When it sealed too low it wouldn’t fully unfold. The stem is also a little long for my anatomy but I plan to trim it. With it being a little long it can rub in uncomfortable places. Depending on the angle of the cup, you can also tell that you have it in. It’s not painful, just a sensation that you know it is there. The cup is kind of a learning process so Im sure I’ll get better with time, but I really encourage you to try it out. There is a lot of good YouTube’s out there that will teach you how to insert, remove, clean, carry, and help you find a good cup for your anatomy. I personally really do like Saalt cups and I am considering purchasing a second one. I hope this review helps!!! Edit; Trouble in paradise!!!!! I had a particularly heavy day out and about and the small cup was not wide enough for my cervix that day! I recommend getting the TWIN PACK. I bought the regular cup just recently for my heavier days. The regular cup is a lot bigger and the stem is a lot shorter so beware! I now understand the crazy reviews of people getting the cup stuck inside them because the regular one is difficult to take out because of the short stem! I feel that the regular cup is a lot more secure for heavier days or days when the cervix has moved. Anatomy is so hard! I still love these cups and I really do hate tampons now.

I decided to give this brand a try because of how popular and highly recommended it is online. I’ve been using a Diva Cup for approximately two and a half years and loved the transition from pads, so I’m well-versed in how to use menstrual cups. Unfortunately, this specific cup just didn’t live up to the hype for me. While I expected a similar experience to my previous cup, I found this one very uncomfortable to wear throughout the day. More importantly, it was incredibly difficult to remove, which made the whole process stressful. The biggest issue, however, was the leaking. I never had any issues with leaking during my years using the Diva Cup, but with this brand, I couldn't get a reliable seal no matter what I tried. I really wanted to like this because of the brand's reputation, but after a few frustrated cycles, I’ve had to go out and buy a new Diva Cup. This one just isn’t working out for me.

La migliore coppetta che abbia fino ad oggi provato (è la terza che acquisto). La sua consistenza non troppo morbida le consente di ottenere subito l’effetto vuoto quando la metti e di rimanere bene in posizione senza perdite; è molto capiente e il gambo è sottile e piccolo, praticamente non si sente. Bellissimo anche il colore (azzurro), mentre le altre due che ho provato dopo un po’ tendevano ad ingiallire. Credo sia ideale per chi ha già confidenza con le coppette e in particolare per chi come me ha partorito più volte e quindi necessita di una coppetta meno morbida che altrimenti tende a spostarsi. Per me è da 10 e lode! (Perfino il sacchettino in stoffa è superchic :) )

es la primera que compro pero no tuve ningun problema como tuvieron otras amigas con otras copas, esta me parecio perfecto llego rapido y perfecto

Très souple et confortable, ça reste en place, très simple à utiliser une fois le coup de main pris.

Raccomandare una coppetta mestruale non é un compito semplice: ogni persona é diversa, diversa forza del pavimento pelvico, diversa altezza della cervice uterina durante il ciclo...sono tutte informazioni importanti nella scelta della corretta coppetta mestruale. Per schiarirvi un po' le idee (e se masticate un po' di inglese) vi consiglio di fare il test sul sito "Put a cup on it" in modo da poter essere indirizzare alla marca di coppette più adatte a voi. Ho scelto di comprare una coppetta Saalt proprio dopo aver fatto quel test, dato che era la prima raccomandazione datami...inoltre ho scelto la taglia S in quanto la mia cervice tende ad essere sempre un po' bassa, e la taglia regular mi avrebbe dato abbastanza fastidio. Il contenitore é davvero bellissimo e la coppetta lo é altrettanto (il colore é davvero delizioso!). Il gambo é estremamente morbido e grazie a questo non lo sento minimamente e quindi non ho neanche bisogno di tagliarlo. La coppetta si apre con facilità e il sigillo é estremamente robusto e non si rompe facilmente: per la prima volta dopo 6 anni (dove usavo un'altra coppetta) non ho avuto alcuna perdita durante i miei primi 2 cicli con la Saalt. Sono abituata a pendolare molto (devo cambiare diversi treni e autobus per arrivare in università) ma il sottovuoto creato non si é mai rotto ~ Posso solo dire che al momento ne sono assolutamente entusiasta! Cambierò la recensione in futuro se dovessi avere dei possibili problemi. Ps: la compagnia ha un servizio clienti a dir poco fantastico e saranno pronti a seguirvi passo a passo se mai doveste incontrare qualche problema 💕

Très bonne qualité.
