Tips to get you started

  • Don’t worry about having a full collection of pads, to begin with, buy one or two to find out which you like.
  • Not sure if a menstrual cup is for you? Try one of our great value cups so that you’d don’t break the bank.
  • Four or five pads is enough to get started with cloth, you can give them a go for a few days and then buy more as you need them.
  • Want to try a cup and pads? Our starter packs have just what you need to begin with.
  • You can sterilise your cup by boiling it in a pad or pouring boiling water over it in an old jar or container.
  • Our microwave cups are a simple way to sterilise your cup.
  • When you are out and about, mini wet bags are an ideal way to store your used pads until you get home.
