Review: Period Cup-Small Size - 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.
Review: From Pad Lover to Cup Lover(4.5 stars) - All the raving you hear about menstrual cups. Well it is true, this little piece of silicone is freaking fantastic. I was an avid pads user, tampons scared me, honestly the thought of shoving anything up there was scary, but one of my roommates swore by the cup so I thought I would give it a try. I read the reviews and decided to go with the Saalt Cup in the small/regular size and I am so glad that I did. Pros - Environmentally friendly, I’m not dropping half a box to a box of pads in a landfill once a month. - Wallet Friendly, I’m no longer dropping quite a chunk of money on pads - Leak Free, I have only ever leaked twice and it was when I was a lazy butt and wore it more then 12 hours cause I didn’t want to get out of bed - Can do practically anything in it, I jumped on a trampoline, swam, did a handstand, and much more while using this cup - If you are using body literacy/fertility awareness and know that your period is going to be starting in the next 24 you can pop it in, and is no pain or discomfort and you are prepared for your period to start at anytime that day/night - You can’t feel it, like seriously if it is in right you can feel nothing, I will forget it is there - Easy to clean and sanitize. Just wash with a mild soap between changes and boil for like 5 min in between cycles to sanitize. - You help your self and other women. I love that they donate to charities that help other women get period products. Cons - Bit of a learning curve. I was able to figure it out by the end of my first cycle with it but I know some people take longer. - I feel like the stem breaks too easily or at least mine did. During my first cycle while I was still figuring things out the stem broke. It works fine without the long stem but I wish it has lasted longer then a few days. - You need to be comfortable with your lady bits. - It can get messy Tips - Do your research before hand look up different folds. I prefer the triangle fold. - Make sure you know what a good seal feels like. Solid Rounded bottom. - Practice putting it in and taking it out before you have to go any where give your self some time to get use to it. Because it of the design you can practice with it before your period even starts. - Get the size that fits you. Regular is for low cervix women and woman who haven’t given birth. The large is for those with heavier periods and those who have given birth. - Learn to take it out in the shower or on the toilet. I honestly had an easier time learning from sitting on the toilet then in the shower, but the shower is good for less mess. - Wear a panty liner or period panties the first few days as a pack up as you are learning. I never ended leaking in my first days but the back up gave me a sense of security as I learned to trust the cup. I am really so glad I gave the Saalt cup a try. It is super convenient and was easy for me to use. I get excited for my periods now because there are all these things I can do now that I wasn’t able to do before when I just used pads. If you are like how I was an avid pad user who had never had anything in her vagina before don’t be afraid to give the Saalt cup a try it is easier then it looks. Most problems take time and practice to get over and the pros really do out way the cons. I would have given it 5/5 if not for the stem breaking so easy. It really was a great purchase and I highly recommend it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I bought a regular size cup from saalt it has good seal but still leak, and I have issue with weak urine stream when using this. help please**
A: When your cup is inserted correctly, you shouldn’t experience any discomfort or leaking. First check the position. Saalt Cup sits lower in the vagina than a tampon. If it is too high or too close to the cervix, it can leak or cause discomfort. The current positioning you're using may be applying pressure to your urethra causing the weak urine stream and be contributing to the leaking. Insert the cup at an angle to match the natural slant of your vaginal canal. For many women this will be horizontally towards your tailbone vs straight up. Leaking can also be caused by a poor suction seal. Make sure the four air holes are not clogged and that the cup has fully opened. Swirl a finger around the base of the cup to check for any folds or indentations. Pinch the base of the cup and rotate it to make sure it is opened completely. If leaking persists let us know and we'll offer additional tips. Most importantly keep trying small adjustments, everyone is different.

**Q: I'm over 30 but only had a C-section not a vaginal birth, I tend to have lighter periods.  What recommendation do you have for sizing??**
A: You will likely be able to comfortably use either Saalt cup size with the right tips. Many use the small for light to normal days and the regular for heavier flow days. This is why we also sell our cups as a 2-pack. Sizing is not an exact science as we all have unique anatomies, but there are more factors than just childbirth (C-section or not) and age. For example, if you have a low cervix and/or strong pelvic and vaginal muscles the small may work best for you. Likewise, if you have a high cervix and/or very heavy flows the regular may work best for you. These are just the opposite ends of the spectrum as again many can use both sizes. Buy in confidence knowing if after 2-3 cycles you aren’t happy with your cup we will refund your total. You may always contact us for help and questions as well. Thanks!

**Q: how to choose the size ?**
A: Many use both cups, the regular on their heavier days, and the small on their lighter days so we offer a two-pack that has both sizes. If looking to purchase a single cup there are many factors that may help you decide:
Small Saalt Cup
- 2-3 tampon capacity 
- light flow
- low cervix
- beginner cup user
- 25 mL

Regular Saalt Cup
- 3-4 tampon capacity
- heavy flow
- high cervix
- cup users
- 30 mL

**Q: When will you be able to sell to mexico? we have very little options there. where can i find these in my country? do you know other sellers?**
A: We are only able to wholesale within the US right now so sadly no stores/sellers in Mexico yet. We are working to be able to sale internationally, but sadly this takes time.    Thanks for your interest in our cups!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Take Your Time. You won't regret it.
*by L***G on October 29, 2019*

I LOVE Saalt cups. I used Diva cups for the past three years and recently made the switch because I enjoy supporting local companies and Saalt is in my hometown! Huzzah. First, I want to say that I already enjoy Saalt cups more than Diva cups. The softer silicone is really nice and I enjoy the shape and color a lot. Secondly, I want to clear some things up for any skeptics out there. Here's the thing: Periods are the worst. If they could be more predictable, that would be great, but they're not. Sometimes our flow is HORRENDOUS, sometimes our cervix drops like CRAZY, sometimes it lasts WAY TOO LONG, sometimes our heavy day comes WAY EARLIER THAN USUAL, and sometimes everything is EVEN MORE HORRENDOUS-CRAZY-LONG-EARLY. We all know this. We've all dealt with this. Some common cup complaints I've heard are that it didn't "work"- it leaked or it was uncomfortable or it was difficult to clean... but read on, my friends. Read on. If you are buying a menstrual cup for the first time or testing out Saalt because Diva didn't quite work for you, there is GOING to be a trial and error period. Just like the ones we all had with tampons and pads in our first terrifying months of puberty. Remember how tampons have to be inserted in just the right way so they don't slowly slip out or so you can't feel them? You didn't figure that out on day ONE. Hell, when I was continuing to use tampons in my late twenties, I STILL had that issue on occasion (with the simple explanation of my cervix being too low for the most crucial day of my cycle. The day I needed it to fit most. Ugh). And how about pads, those nasty buggers?! For those of us who started with pads (My hand is raised HIGH. Tampons freaked me out. I have to put something inside me?? Nope), remember when you had to figure out which size to get? You don't want to look like you're wearing a diaper, but you don't want to fill your pad too quickly, and you want wings or you don't want wings because they keep rotating in your freaking pants and you're completely screwed if you have no time to change it and it just smells and feels wet and gross. It was hell on earth, people. Periods are just the worst. No matter what path you choose, you will have to figure out how your cup/tampon/pad best fits you. How to run your finger around the cup after inserting it to check that it is surrounding your lowered cervix and not accidentally to the side of it. How to fold the cup and release it in just the right way to guarantee full suction. How the cup feels when you spin it that signals your success (very similar to the feeling we get when a tampon is inserted perfectly and there's that sigh of relief: "Yes!! There it is. I feel confident about that one.") It just takes time and practice, but some days- some terrible days- it's gonna leak a little or feel a tad uncomfortable. Just like tampons. Just like pads. Because PERIODS are the work of Hades and we're trying to control the uncontrollable. So, be brave enough to explore your body and its needs. Take your time. You won't regret it. I've had less leakage and more comfort with my Saalt cup than any other menstrual product I've known, and knowing my money is going towards something I can reuse again and again and again means very much to me. I'm tired of tossing bloody disposable tampons/pads/liners in the trash and imagining the mountain I've personally created on our sad little planet. If you're tired of it too, take your time with the cup. It's worth it.
