A menstrual cup is a small, flexible cup made of medical-grade silicone. Instead of absorbing fluid like tampons or pads, it collects it. You fold, insert, and wear it for up to 12 hours, then remove, empty, rinse, and reinsert.

Lena Cup is FDA-registered, made in California with 100% medical-grade silicone, and comes in both Original and Sensitive versions to fit different bodies. It’s beginner-friendly, eco-conscious, and backed by our Satisfaction Guarantee.

Fold your cup (7-fold or punch-down fold works best), relax, and insert at a downward angle. Once inside, let it open fully to create a seal.

Pinch the base (not the stem) to release suction, then gently wiggle it out. Stay relaxed and try squatting if removal feels tricky.

Yes! Lena Cup is safe for up to 12 hours, even overnight. It’s also leak-resistant during swimming, yoga, running, and workouts.

Leaks usually happen if the cup hasn’t fully opened or isn’t sealed. Run your finger around the base to check for folds and ensure proper placement. Choosing the right size also helps.

Rinse with cold water to prevent stains, then wash with a mild cleanser like Lena Wash.

Use only mild, fragrance-free soap. Our Lena Wash is pH-balanced and formulated for cups and intimate use.

If you can’t rinse with water, wipe the cup with Lena Wipes and reinsert. Then wash thoroughly when you’re home.

No. The vagina is only a few inches deep, and the cup can’t travel further. If removal feels difficult, relax, bear down gently, and pinch the base to release the seal.

While the risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) is much lower with menstrual cups than with tampons, it's still important to use your Lena Cup safely.

Always wash your hands before use, clean your cup as directed, and empty it at least every 12 hours. If you ever feel unwell during your cycle, remove the cup and consult a healthcare provider. Your safety is our priority.
