## Description

The Lunette menstrual cup is your user-friendly, safe, reusable and eco-logical period accompaniment. You can wear it continuously for up to 12 hours. Because it is reusable, your wallet will also be happy while you enjoy stress-free days in line with your period.

Review: The Lunette menstrual cup has been a total game changer. It’s comfortable, easy to insert and remove, and once it’s in, I forget it’s even there. No leaks, even on heavier days, and I can go hours without worrying about it. It’s also super easy to clean and holds up well between cycles. The quality is excellent, flexible, but sturdy. A smart, sustainable alternative to pads or tampons, and well worth the investment.
Review: After months of going down the dark hole of menstrual cup research, I found this cup. The first time I used it, I took a deep breath and put it in - no problem. Then I wanted to make sure I could get it out - problem. I couldn't get it out. I was panicking and tensing up which made it way worse. I took a half an hour breather during which I watched a YouTube video by precious period stars about removing a cup and instantly I realized my error. I was approaching the cup like it was a silicone tampon. This is not a silicone tampon. This is a cup, along with all cups, that functions primarily by suction, which means if you don't break said suction you will be in a tug of war match with your cervix. Do not get in a tug of war match with your cervix. Just don't do it. Instead, you need to bear down, use the stem to wiggle it down, and then pinch the bottom of the cup to break the suction. You will need to get comfortable with you body including the fact that you will need to bear down to bring the cup low enough to break the suction. See earlier point about this not being a silicone tampon. After my initial episode of putting said cup in and freaking out about not getting said cup out, I kept practicing. Mostly because I was and am too stubborn to go back to tampons and too active to wear pads regularly. Quickly I began to realize my cup was hit or miss whether or not it was comfortable because it sometimes wasn't opening and sometimes it would. When it opened I joined the chorus of women who who wrote odes to their cup. But when it didn't open, oh when it didn't open, I would be reduced to PMS-filled, rage-induced, tears on my bathroom floor. Try as I might, I could not get this cup open consistently. 6 months later, I still occasionally walk out of the bathroom defeated by a stubborn lunette that just won't open. Despite being battle-weary cup user I am, I have learned a lot and still use my Lunette every cycle. Here is my advice for using Lunette or other cups: 1) RELAX! If my muscles are tense this cup won't open. For me this means I can't insert the cup when I'm freaking out or after I've accomplished certain bathroom activities that require air freshener. I have to put a panty liner on and wait a few minutes before inserting. 2) You need to bear down like you're having a BM and yet relax your vaginal muscles 3) I needed to trim 1 notch off the stem otherwise I felt like I was being stabbed - but I didn't do this until I was able to develop the "bearing down skills" I needed to bring the cup lower. 4) If this cup doesn't open, then sometimes "tapping" or pushing a flat edge of the cup inside can cue the cup to pop open. I haven't had much luck rotating (how do you even do that?), pinching (It's a vagina, not a hallway), or pressing the folded edge (it's round, so the fold just moves). 5) If you walk away in defeat, refrain from throwing this cup in the garbage, yelling at people or animals when you're really angry at your cup, burning your cup, or writing an angry review. Sometimes I walk away in defeat, only to come back in 30-60 minutes to retry and have the cup magically open on it's own. 6) I've had the best luck with the "7-fold". I started out with the punch down fold, but this fold very rarely resulted in opening. I have experimented with the C-fold and it is not the most comfortable fold and has also NEVER resulted in Lunette opening automatically. Because Lunette sometimes doesn't open reliably for me, manually opening is hit or miss, and if manually opened I get leaking, I tried the Lena cup. While Lena has great customer service, the Lena cup was too firm for me. Sure, the firmness meant it opened every time without fail, but it created a constant pressure from being too firm. I tried Lena four times in two separate cycles, to no avail. Lunette is still my go to cup, but it is not my goldilocks cup. And I still need to buy pads for when it won't open and panty liners for when I have to manually open Lunette. But I have yet to resort to tampons because of how much more comfortable cups feel (again, when they open and aren't too firm). In the mean time, I shall continue to use Lunette and keeping my eyes peeled for my golidlocks cup. I've added a comparison picture of Lunette and Lena for those sisters exploring options or in the deep dark hole of menstrual cup research.

*by M***A on 14 March 2026*

This is my second small one now. The first one lasted 10 years which I found quite amazing. In case someone is wondering when to get a new one, my cup had gone bad when the discoloration was impossible to remove. I find the smaller size amazingly comfortable. I feel the pressure a bit, especially when the cup is full and heavy, but it is not too bad. The bigger size is stiffer silicone and I found it somewhat uncomfortable to use. I personally only use it occasionally on those heavier days. I know it can be intimidating to start using one of these, but if it works out for you, they are absolutely amazing. I save money and contribute less waste and I am much more comfortable than when using disposable pads or tampons
