Hello Stemless Menstrual Cup for a Low Cervix

Why We Love the Hello Cup Low Cervix

We particularly like that Hello has created a menstrual cup specifically for people with a low cervix, rather than simply suggesting they trim the stem of a standard cup. Its shorter, stemless design avoids having an additional length extending below the base, while the rounded shape and grip rings provide a practical area to hold during removal.

The two sizes also give you some flexibility when choosing between a narrower cup and a wider option with more capacity. We like that the TPE is firm enough to provide structure but softens as it warms to body temperature.

One thing to consider is that a stemless cup requires you to reach the base directly when removing it. If you have limited finger dexterity or find it difficult to reach your cup, a design with a longer stem, loop or ring may be easier to manage.

• Short, stemless design specifically intended for a low cervix.
• Rounded, thickened base with grip rings to assist with removal.
• Made from medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
• Firm structure that softens as it warms to body temperature.
• Available in two sizes: Medium and Large.
• Capacity options of 21 ml and 28 ml, measured to the air holes.
• Silicone-free and BPA-free.
• Hypoallergenic
• Designed and manufactured in New Zealand.
• Includes a cotton storage pouch and printed instruction guide.

This product may suit you if…

• You have a low cervix during your period and need a shorter menstrual cup.
• You have tried conventional menstrual cups and found them too long.
• You find that a longer stem protrudes or causes rubbing.
• You prefer a smooth, rounded base without a protruding removal stem.
• You can comfortably reach and pinch the base of a cup during removal.
• You want a reusable menstrual cup made from TPE rather than silicone.
• You want to choose between two different diameters and capacities.

Consider another option if…

• You have an average or high cervix and may find a short, stemless cup difficult to reach.
• You have limited finger dexterity or prefer a longer stem, loop or ring to help with removal.
• You need a narrower cup than the 41 mm Medium.
• You need more than 28 ml of capacity.
• You have previously struggled to get a menstrual cup to open and would prefer to compare other firmness options.
• You prefer a menstrual disc or another period product that does not rely on the same cup shape and seal.

The Hello Cup Low Cervix is made from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), a flexible material used to manufacture reusable menstrual products.

• Medical-grade TPE.
• Silicone-free.
• BPA-free.
• Hypoallergenic.
• Designed and manufactured in New Zealand.

The cup has a firm structure when first handled but softens as it warms with body heat. The manufacturer specifies different TPE firmness grades depending on colour:

• Lilac: 45A Shore TPE.
• All other colours: 50A Shore TPE.

If you have a known material sensitivity, check the complete material information before choosing a product.

Each retail package includes:

• One Hello Cup Low Cervix menstrual cup in your selected size and colour.
• One cotton storage pouch.
• One printed instruction guide.

1. Wash your hands and prepare your cup according to the supplied instructions before first use.
2. Fold the cup using a fold that creates a comfortable insertion point.
3. Gently insert the folded cup towards your tailbone and allow it to open inside the vaginal canal.
4. Check that the cup has opened and is sitting comfortably.
5. Wear for up to 8 hours, or empty sooner according to your menstrual flow.
6. To remove, relax your pelvic floor muscles and reach the base of the cup.
7. Pinch the base to release the seal before gently removing the cup.
8. Empty, clean and reinsert as needed.

Because this cup is stemless, removal involves reaching the base directly rather than pulling on a stem. Allow yourself time to practise positioning and removal as you become familiar with the design.

Proper cleaning and care will help maintain your Hello Cup between uses.

Before first use and between periods

Sanitise your cup according to the supplied instruction guide. Follow the manufacturer's recommended cleaning and sanitising method and timings.

During your period

• Empty the cup according to your flow and wear-time recommendations.
• Rinse with clean water after removal where possible.
• Wash with a gentle cleanser suitable for menstrual cups.
• Rinse thoroughly before reinserting.

Storage

After cleaning, allow the cup to dry completely. Store it in the included cotton storage pouch in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Replacement

The manufacturer recommends replacing the Hello Cup Low Cervix after five years. Inspect your cup regularly and discontinue use if you notice damage or deterioration before then.

• Always read and follow the printed instructions supplied with your cup.
• Do not exceed the recommended maximum wear time of 8 hours. Empty sooner if your flow requires it.
• Always release the cup's seal before removal. Do not pull against suction.
• If you use an IUD, speak with your healthcare professional about menstrual cup use and removal precautions.
• Stop using the cup and seek medical advice if you experience persistent pain or irritation.
• Seek prompt medical attention if you experience symptoms that may indicate Toxic Shock Syndrome.
