The Mooncup Menstrual cup The latest innovation in feminine hygiene protection
Normal selling price £18.99 £17.95 inc VAT (Vat at 5%) ~~SSP £18.99~~

The Mooncup is a reusable menstrual cup around two inches long and made from soft silicone rubber.

It is worn internally like a tampon but collects menstrual fluid rather than absorbing.

Unlike tampons the Mooncup is not a disposable product, so you only need to buy one.

The Moon cup will hold 30ml of fluid, which is roughly one third of the average total produced each period.

A light seal is formed with your vaginal walls allowing your menstrual fluid to pass into the Mooncup without leakage or odour.

You will probably find that you need to empty your Moon cup less frequently than you currently replace towels or tampons.

Which Size Mooncup should I use?

Please ensure that you choose the right sized Mooncup, we cannot exchange or refund due to hygiene reasons. If you are unsure of the correct size, please call us on 020 8960 9702.

More info

The Mooncup menstrual cup contains no bleaches, deodorisers or absorbency gels. It does not interfere with your healthy vaginal environment, nor has it been associated with toxic shock syndrome.

The smooth surface of the Mooncup allows the mucus membranes of your vaginal wall to continue their essential cleansing and protective functions. The Mooncup does not absorb your body's natural defence mechanisms and will not deposit fibres in your vaginal wall.

For your safety the Mooncup is made from a special medical grade non-allergic silicone. Silicone is derived from silica which is one of the most abundant minerals on earth.

It will not cause irritation and is suitable for women with sensitive skin, thrush, eczema or allergy.

The Mooncup can be cleaned in the same way as baby equipment: with sterilising fluid, or by boiling for five minutes in an open pan of water.

Unlike pads and tampons the Mooncup menstrual cup is reusable, eliminating the need to carry bulky spares. With proper care your Mooncup will last for several years.

Imagine the towels and tampons that you will be disposing of in landfill sites during those years!

"I've been using the Mooncup for three years and it has been fantastic. I have a very heavy flow and used to use 2 x super plus tampons at a time, and a pad as well, and I would still be in a mess in an hour for the first 2 days of my period. Apart from saving me a fortune, and not supporting pharmaceutical giants, it is much gentler on your body than tampons. Try it, it is really worth it."

Emma :
I would far rather give birth again than go through using the moon cup. Hated it. It would be far better if it had a small loop at the bottom to improve removal.

Fantastic!!! Have just completed a completely leak free period( never leak free with tampons)Easy to use, easy to clean and most importantly easy on the environment. If only I'd bought one sooner. If you're dithering about whether to buy one....do it now!!!

I love my mooncup ... lighter, shorter periods than I've ever had before. So comfortable to use and so easy. Can't understand now why anyone still uses disposable pads & tampons.
