Lunette Menstrual Cup

Why We Love the Lunette Menstrual Cup

We appreciate Lunette's thoughtful design and the choice between two models with noticeably different dimensions and firmness. Model 1 offers a narrower, softer option that may suit people who prefer less internal pressure, while Model 2 provides a wider, firmer design with greater capacity.

Scandinavian design meets sustainable comfort with a stylish bell-shaped menstrual cup. Lunette has a long-standing reputation for breaking menstrual taboos, promoting inclusivity and partnering with charitable organisations.

• Reusable menstrual cup for collecting menstrual fluid
• Two models with different diameters, firmness levels and capacities
• Bell-shaped body with a pronounced rim and air holes
• Smooth cup surface for straightforward cleaning
• Flat, ribbed stem to assist with locating and removing the cup
• Stem can be trimmed gradually if needed
• Measuring lines inside the cup to help monitor collected menstrual fluid
• Available in a range of colours
• Supplied with a breathable linen storage pouch, printed instructions and illustrated bookmark

This Product May Suit You If…

• You want to choose between a softer and firmer menstrual cup
• You prefer a narrower cup and are considering Model 1

Consider Another Option If…

1. Before first use, wash the cup with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser and boil it in water for 5 minutes.
2. Wash your hands thoroughly before handling your cup.
3. Fold the cup using a C-fold, punch-down fold or another technique that feels comfortable.
4. Gently insert the folded cup into the vaginal canal, directing it towards your lower back.
5. Allow the cup to open and check that the rim has unfolded properly.
6. Wear for no longer than 8 hours in Australia, emptying sooner if needed according to your flow.
7. To remove, wash your hands, relax your pelvic floor and pinch the base of the cup to release the seal.
8. Gently ease the cup out, empty it, clean it and reinsert as needed.

Learning to use a menstrual cup can take practice. The stem helps you locate the cup but should not be used to pull it out without first releasing the seal.

Proper cleaning and sanitising help keep your Lunette Menstrual Cup ready for reuse.

Before first use:
Wash the cup with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser, then boil it in water for 5 minutes.

Before each period:
Sanitise the cup by boiling it in water for 5 minutes.

During your period:
Empty the cup and rinse it first with cold water. Then wash with Lunette Cup Wash or a mild, fragrance-free soap. Rinse thoroughly to remove any cleanser residue before reinserting.

After each period:
Wash the cup thoroughly and sanitise it by boiling in water for 5 minutes.

Between periods:
Allow the cup to air dry completely before storing it in the breathable linen pouch provided. Keep the pouch in a clean, dry place.

Avoid harsh cleaning products and strongly fragranced soaps. Inspect your cup regularly and replace it if you notice cuts, deterioration or other damage.

Always follow the supplied Lunette instructions for cleaning and care.

• Follow the manufacturer's instructions and do not exceed the Australian maximum wear time of 8 hours.
• Do not share your menstrual cup with another person.
• Use the cup for menstrual bleeding, not postnatal bleeding.
• A menstrual cup is not contraception and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. Remove it before sexual intercourse.
• If you use an IUD or contraceptive ring, consult your healthcare professional before using a menstrual cup. Always release the cup's seal before removal.
• Consult a healthcare professional if you have a gynaecological condition or concerns about whether a menstrual cup is suitable for you.
• Stop using the cup and seek advice if you experience persistent pain or irritation.
• Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) is rare but serious. If you develop symptoms such as sudden fever, vomiting, diarrhoea, rash or severe muscle pain, remove the cup and seek urgent medical attention.
