They collect your period blood inside your vagina and can be worn for up to 8 hours at a time, giving you unparalleled freedom compared with traditional period products. Ruby Cups are made of medical-grade silicone, making them soft and easy to use.
Medical Grade Silicone has an almost indefinite lifespan. If you treat your Ruby Cup well, it can last you up to 10 years.
Ruby Cups are made from 100% medical-grade premium silicone and are blissfully free from plastics, latex, toxins and bleaches. You can care for your body, all while knowing that the product you’re using is completely harmless.
Ruby Cups collect menstrual blood instead of absorbing it like a tampon. This means that they do not disrupt your vagina’s natural bacteria balance. The vagina is a wonderful mechanism that is self-cleansing and continually produces natural lubricants that “flush” the vagina. Tampons absorb this protective fluid and can disrupt the natural balance. Many tampons and pads also contain chemicals, perfumes and bleaches, so they can appear white and hygienic – but these additives are not healthy for your body.
You can take a small bottle of water with you to rinse the cup over the toilet. If the sink is out of reach, simply wipe the Ruby Cup clean with dry or damp tissue, and reinsert.
Yes, it is possible to combine a menstrual cup with an IUD. Just make sure you regularly check on your IUD strings and take care to pinch the walls of your cup together to release the suction, before removing it.
Your cervix acts as a barrier between the uterus and the vagina. This makes it anatomically impossible for your menstrual cup to get lost inside of you.
Yes, anyone can use a menstrual cup! Many first-time menstrual cup users are worried that using a menstrual cup could stretch their vagina and be painful. It is understandable to be nervous.
