“I work a very long shift with the NHSBT and it’s lovely to not have to worry about it during the day. I feel much cleaner using it and I’m sleeping better during my periods. All this and it helps the environment and money too. Brilliant idea.”

“The moon cup has been a life changer. Bit tricky at first but a breeze once you get the hang of it. Cheaper and much greener than tampons and no horrible chemicals inside you. Can’t recommend enough.”

Helpful Report

“At the beginning of my period I find my flow is too heavy for the mooncup, I cannot use it without wearing a sanitary liner as I leak. If you are out all day or use toilets that do not have a sink inside to clean the cup, it is not so practical. You could have a spare but cleaning the cup in a shared sink does not feel so sanitary.”

“So happy I made the switch from tampons! The mooncup is really easy to use, doesn't dry you out, is way better for the environment and you don't need to empty it as often as you'd change your tampon. Also, all the info on the website was really helpful!”

“I can't believe it's taken me this long to get a moon cup. Best purchase I've made in a long time and I found so easy to get used to.”

“So, this is my first ever week of using a Mooncup. I am on day five and I am finding it a very positive and empowering experience. I must admit, that after watching one of the short films where another user had tracked their first week or so, I was feeling a bit apprehensive as she'd experienced a few teething problems. I didn't experience anywhere near as many of the issues she did and I have been incredibly and pleasantly surprised by how easy it's been for me so far. Most of the time I can forget about it even being there, which is fantastic! I would recommend this product to others as not only is it easy to use but it also helps the environment, which is wonderful and worthwhile on all levels.”

“I switched to using a mooncup from tampons because I found I was always leaking (especially overnight) and I was constantly worrying about ending up in a mess. From the very first month of using the mooncup (I've had two periods now since starting) I haven’t had a single leak. Amazing. It is quite “involved” and it’s not the most pleasant having to deal with emptying the cup in a public toilet using tissue or a bottle of water (definitely recommend taking water with you as that’s by far the best) but it still beats having to deal with embarrassing clean ups when tampons have failed. Most of the time I find a bathroom with a sink in the stall. I had to trim the “stalk” pretty short so I couldn’t feel it but once I got that right, honestly wouldn’t know I’m wearing it. Also love the fact I don’t have to carry bulky tampons everywhere. Would recommend to everyone and I’m never going back - thank you Mooncup!”
