How I get rid of staining that builds up on all menstrual cups over time?
We asked to our Femmecup advisor, Julie, and she Asked:
There is no recommended method to get rid of staining that builds up on all menstrual cups over time. However, sterilising in boiling water and brushing with a soft brush (such as toothbrush) may help a lot.
This staining does not affect the functionality of Femmecup in any way.
We do not recommend using rubbing alcohol, bleach or any other harmful chemicals to remove staining.
On the market there are 2 types of rock alum deodorant marketed as:
- 100% natural stone
- a stone that is obtained through a chemical process from ammonium salt synthesis.
What are the differences and why we like more natural?
1. Natural stone is long lasting (depending on size, but usually one year), the synthetic lasts a few months.
2. The Alum salt based synthetic (Ammonia) must be notified as Ammonium Alum and aluminum that can be set up in the skin, so it is best avoided.
3. The composition of a natural deodorant stone is Potasium Alum, and contains no chemicals added, is just as occurs in nature.
You see, at first sight is easy to confuse, so you have to read the ingredients, composition, and if necessary, ask!

Do you still think that the menstrual cup is too big?
The menstrual cup is the same length as a tampon but when it’s open is much wider. As you see, once folded, is very similar, so it’s insertion is easy. Especially because it is made of medical grade silicone, which slides, like a tampon with applicator.
If you want to know how to fold the cup this way, we made a video for you: http://youtu.be/IbODOLg44qU
If you are interested in selling any of our products in your store, pharmacy or consumer cooperative, please contact us via the following email address: hola@femmefleur.net

When you buy a menstrual cup it comes with some instructions about how to fold and insert a menstrual cup. We find this way easier to use because you have more control on the cup, it does not move while you hold it. It makes everything easier :)
