About Menstrual Cup Size A
The Mooncup is a reusable menstrual cup, around two inches long and made from soft medical grade silicone. It is worn internally a lot lower than a tampon but, while tampons and pads absorb menstrual fluid, the Mooncup collects it. This means it doesn't cause dryness or irritation, and also that it collects far more (three times as much as a 'super-absorbent' tampon!). Because the Mooncup is reusable, you only need one so it saves you money and helps the environment, too.
The Mooncup is designed to be folded and inserted into the vagina, then removed, rinsed and reinserted up to every 8 hours. A light seal is formed with your vaginal walls, allowing menstrual fluid to pass into the Mooncup without leakage or odour. This seal is released for removal, allowing you to empty the contents, rinse or wipe and reinsert. Comfortable, convenient and safe: the Mooncup can be used overnight and when travelling, swimming or exercising.
Size. Because vaginal and pelvic floor tones naturally reduce with age, the size 'A' is recommended for women aged 30 or over. The difference between the 'A' and the 'B' is only small (3mm), but it is crucial! Size 'A' is also recommended for all women who have given birth vaginally, regardless of age.
