I was on the fence about trying moon cups, but was keen to move away from tampons to something more sustainable and less wasteful so finally took the plunge. The cup has basically replaced them for me, but I still use liners on very light days. It took a few tries to get the technique, and can now get it in and out without stress. I've found it quite comfortable to wear the majority of the time. I haven't had to trim the tip, and after a trial period without any leaks now trust it and have that peace of mind (obviously will be flow depending based on how heavy you are). The website was very helpful with folding methods, information about cleaning etc. The bag is useful for discreet storage too. Would recommend to anyone wanting to give cups a try. Shipping was very quick too!

The mooncup customer service is spot on. They helped me with getting the right size moon cup after i found my first one a bit difficult and helped me with other advise on using it. I love the fact i am not throwing crappy products in the bin and doing my bit for the environment. It has taken me a couple of go's to get the hang of it but i now feel so comfortable 'down there'. I used to wash sanitary pads but was getting fed up of the hassle of washing and how bulky they feel to wear. The mooncup changes this completely and im so glad i made the switch.

Mooncup is amazing! I have severe periods (i have endo) so to be able to rely on this cup has made my life so much better. On my light days i can leave it in all day and not even think about it, on my heavier days i empty it a few times throughout the day but in comparison to the vast amount of tampons i want through this is literally a game changer. I do wear a liner on my heavy days more for peace of mind but its very rare i leak through. It was a bit tricky to master getting it in at first, you have to really relax and know how you feel inside (don't be shy ladies) i found the C fold the best for inserting. I also found it easier to put in, in the shower until i mastered it completely, now I'm able to do it in the toilet whilst standing up. At 1st i bought the size B as recommended for my age etc.. but after 2 months of trying it out i was getting leaking and i could feel a pressure so i emailed Mooncup for advice as i didn't want to give up, they were so helpful, they asked me a lot of questions to try figure out what was the cause of the leaking and pressure. I was soon told that even though they recommend certain sizes, woman are all different so it turned out i needed the A size. I was told to destroy the one i had and that they'd send me the correct size in the post free of charge. Within a few days i had my new mooncup. I trimmed the stem to my preferred length and off i went with a cup that worked perfectly. I really can't fault these guys. They've been incredibly helpful and the product is genuinely amazing. 👌 Great for the environment, ive saved an absolute fortune on sanity products alone just in 2 months! You can swim without worrying people might see the string!! Honestly if your thinking about trying a mentrual cup, don't think just buy one and change your life. I will NEVER use another tampon again so long as these guys are around. Although if looked after properly these cups last 10 years. You do the math on the cost of sanitary products over 10 years. Thank me later ladies 🚺 😘

Mooncups are life changing. I completely forget I have my periods while wearing one. The tip if a bit long long, just cut it with scissors. It's not useful anyway, I grab the base of the cup to get it out, not that protrusion.

Very comfortable and easy to use. This is my second one and I will always come back to Mooncup when it is time to replace it. Couldn't recommend it enough.!

Tried it a few times and then gave up, one day when I forgot to buy pads, I thought sod it I'll give it another go and honestly I'll never look back! It's so much less stress, less mess, better for the environment and best of all, reusable!!

Just bought my second mooncup after 15 years with the first. I was reluctant to take the plunge when I first got one but after a little practice got used to it very quickly. It's so much more comfortable than pads or tampons and saves so much money! And my main win is the environmental benefit. The customer service was some of the best I've received - friendly, kind, very helpful and knowledgable responses that really helped me choose the size best for me. Can't recommend them enough!

I made the switch from pads and tampons to the mooncup 2 months ago and i'm glad i took the plunge. It's much easier to use than i thought. I usually have one or two nights of very heavy flow, a tampon + pad was sometimes not enough, and also very messy. To my surprise the mooncup proved much much better at coping with the night flow, only a tiny leak once. The only downside is needing running water to rinse it out before reinserting. I work from home so that it is'nt so much of a problem, but using public toilets would definately be inconvinient. I guess taking a bottle of water to rinse is an option. But the main reason why i bought the mooncup is that it's better for our world. I was sick of shelling out money on pads and tampons that were environmentally damaging.

I've used a mooncup for 17 years after the birth if my daughter in 2005. It's the best thing I've ever done. It took some practice to get the hang of but once you've got that down it's plain sailing! I've had to change my mooncup every 6 years but it's worth it. When I had to get a new one I had to use tampons and sanitary pads for a bit and it was horrible! I felt self conscious and uncomfortable, when I use my mooncup I don't even feeling like I'm on my period, I feel comfortable, clean and not self conscious. It's the best investment I've ever made. Highly recommended.

Really surprised with how well I get on with this. It’s not noticeable if used properly. The instructions that come with it are very helpful with ensuring it’s comfortable

Best product I ever bought for myself in the category body-wellness. Bought my first cup 10 years ago and never looked back. Now have the version for after giving birth and I am so satisfied, am thrilled with how easy it is to comfortably insert and use. I've been recommending Mooncups as well as giving them as gifts for these past 10 years and have no plans to stop doing that. The whole package has always been 100% - service, price, delivery - I wouldn't know anything about returns and refund, would never get rid of my cups again. Would recommend Mooncup any day.

I’m new to using the mooncup but it’s been great so far! Had no issues with inserting or removing (which is something I was worried about) and it’s also really easy to clean. Once you’ve got the hang of getting it in the right place it’s really comfortable and you wouldn’t know it’s there. Would definitely recommend giving it a try!

My moon cup arrived quickly but it was uncomfortable to wear, I contacted customer service and they were great! Really supportive and were able to ask the right questions. Turns out I am smaller for my age group and needed the A cup rather than the B. The replacement arrived quickly and is super comfortable, never had any leaks and it works perfectly. I love my moomcup, I wouldn't use anything else.

Mooncup was a game changer in handling my period, particularly when going to the office. Super recommended

Quite a long overdue review, but i have been using mooncup at every cycle i had since March 2017. A complete game changer with my heavy period. Easy to clean, insert and empty and it lasts for such a long time. I never expected to have it for more than 5 years and still be in great condition. I have been recommending it to everyone with heavy periods

Best product of this kind, best shape, size and especially material - it is softer and fits better. Simply uncomparable with other ‘cups’.

It's a wonderful product. However, using it has been a steep learning curve. Inserting; no problem. Removing it; turned the bathroom into a crime scene after it'd been stuck for two days. But once you get the hang of it it's absolutely marvellous. Less waste, my body's happier and I don't have to think about it for hours (I sometimes forget I am on my period, which wasn't really a thing before the moon cup..)

Mooncup was the first menstrual cup I ever used. Mine lasted for ten years before I dropped it down the toilet (after a toilet incident where...lets just say there was no reusing the reusable cup after that) and after subsequent years of using alternative menstrual cups by a variety of companies and feeling dissatisfied, I returned to the original and (in my experience) best cup out there. When I decided to buy another cup, I was a bit nervous about getting the right size - I contacted customer service and Sophia, who answered my emails, was really helpful and informative. Stellar company with proper ethics. Will recommend Mooncups to anyone who will listen.
