Folio Reusable Menstrual Cup with Loop Stem

Why We Love the Folio Easy Ring Menstrual Cup

We particularly like the Folio's rounded shape and distinctive Easy Ring design. The loop gives you a feature to locate when you are ready to remove the cup, while the grip lines around the base provide a separate surface to hold when releasing the seal. We also like the internal measurement markings, which give you a way to observe how much menstrual fluid you have collected.

Its bulbous shape may be worth considering if you have a tilted uterus and find that a more rounded cup sits comfortably for you. With two sizes to choose from, the Folio offers some flexibility when comparing diameter and capacity. As with any menstrual cup, the best fit depends on your individual anatomy and preferences.

• Rounded, bulbous body with a smooth exterior
• Distinctive loop-style stem designed to help locate the cup during removal
• Grip lines around the base to provide a better surface to hold
• Pronounced rim with holes to assist with forming and releasing the seal
• Internal measurement markings to help monitor collected menstrual flow
• Two size options to suit different diameter and capacity preferences
• Reusable silicone construction
• Supplied with a cotton storage pouch and printed instructions

This product may suit you if…

• You prefer a rounded, bulbous cup shape rather than a traditional tapered bell shape.
• You want a loop that is easy to locate when you are ready to remove your cup.
• You appreciate having grip lines around the base to help you hold the cup.
• You want internal measurement markings to help monitor your collected flow.
• You have a tilted uterus and want to try a more rounded cup shape, recognising that uterus position alone does not determine fit.
• You want a choice between two sizes with different diameters and capacities.
• You prefer a reusable menstrual cup with a distinctive design.

Consider another option if…

• You have a low cervix and need a cup shorter than the Folio's listed total lengths.
• You prefer a narrow or tapered cup shape.
• You find wider cup bodies or pronounced rims uncomfortable.
• You prefer a longer stem that can be pulled or a different style of removal aid.
• You need a cup with a smaller diameter than 42 mm.
• You need a higher capacity than the Large Folio's 37 ml capacity to the air holes.

Choosing a menstrual cup involves more than selecting Small or Large. Consider your cervix height, vaginal space, menstrual flow and preferred cup diameter. Length affects how comfortably the cup sits, while diameter can influence how the cup feels once inserted.

The Folio Easy Ring is available in two sizes:

(Important capacity information: The 20 ml and 30 ml markings printed inside the cups are measurement indicators. They are not the maximum capacities. The Small holds approximately 30 ml to the air holes and 35 ml to the rim, while the Large holds approximately 37 ml to the air holes and 42 ml to the rim.)

The total lengths include the loop-style stem, so remember to account for the full measurement when considering your cervix height.

Small

The Small is the narrower and shorter Folio option, with a 42 mm diameter and 59 mm total length including the loop. It holds approximately 30 ml to the air holes and 35 ml to the rim.

It may suit someone who prefers a slightly smaller cup diameter or wants a lower capacity option. Consider whether its total length will sit comfortably below your cervix, particularly if you have a lower cervix.

Large

The Large has a slightly wider diameter of 44 mm and a total length of 63 mm including the loop. It holds approximately 37 ml to the air holes and 42 ml to the rim.

It may suit someone who prefers a wider cup or wants more capacity between emptying. Its additional length is also worth considering if your cervix sits lower during menstruation.

Neither size is automatically better because of age or birth history. Compare the actual measurements with your anatomy, flow and comfort preferences.

Follow the printed instructions supplied with your Folio cup for cleaning and sanitising before first use, during your period and between cycles.

Whenever you empty the cup, clean it according to the manufacturer's directions before reinserting. Allow it to dry thoroughly before storing it in the cotton pouch.

Inspect your cup regularly for visible damage or changes to its surface. Discontinue use if you notice tears, cracking or deterioration and follow the manufacturer's replacement guidance.

Always read and follow the instructions supplied with your menstrual cup. Do not exceed the recommended wear time.

Seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional before using a menstrual cup if you have an IUD, a gynaecological condition, have recently given birth, have undergone pelvic surgery or have previously experienced Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).

If you have an IUD, take particular care to release the cup's seal fully before removal. Avoid pulling on the loop as a removal method.

Stop using the cup and seek professional advice if you experience ongoing pain or irritation.
