Lady Cup Menstrual Cup (Size L) Blue Cup

LadyCup® is a new menstrual cup, designed to be introduced similarly to a tampon. During menstruation, menstrual blood is collected in the menstrual cup. LadyCup® is made exclusively of medical silicone. No bacteria can remain on its entirely smooth surface, it does not absorb any liquids, and thus no changes of the natural vaginal environment occur.


Price is RM145 per piece. Comes with a small pouch, instruction leaflet all packed into a box as shown below.









When handling LadyCup®, make sure your hands are thoroughly clean! Disinfect LadyCup® before the first use. LadyCup® can be boiled (cca. 5 min.) or sterilized using a solution made from sterilization tablets. To ensure easier introduction, use of a water-based lubrication gel is recommended, especially for young girls / women (size S - Small). To introduce / remove LadyCup®, the sitting/standing position is ideal. Before insertion, first fold LadyCup® two times lengthwise. Insert the folded LadyCup® in the vagina. Before the first insertion, your overall relaxation is very important. Therefore try to introduce / remove LadyCup® in a period without menstruation. This strategy is best to find “your” most suitable position to introduce / remove LadyCup®. After some time, this activity will be common for you and will not cause you any major problems. Introducing/removing LadyCup® is not more difficult than introducing / removing a common tampon.

Empty LadyCup® 2-5 times daily depending on the menstrual flow.

Read the attached instructions thoroughly before the first use. Should anything be unclear, do not hesitate to contact us or consult your gynecologist directly.



The material used - silicone, does not cause any known allergies. By using LadyCup®, the risk of bacterial disease is reduced and the occurrence of toxic shock syndrome (TSS), a danger, e.g. in the use tampons, is prevented.

LadyCup® is also suitable for women who suffer from various eczemas or dermal allergies and allergies to tampons or latex materials. LadyCup® is made from an absolutely neutral silicone material, which maintains a healthy vaginal environment and does not dehydrate the mucosa.
