- How do I know which Nyla Cup size is suitable for me?
- Your Nyla Cup size is influenced by your flow intensity, cervix position, and vaginal childbirth history. The Selene Cup is optimized for a lower cervix placement, while the Hera Cup is perfect for a higher cervix. Refer to our sizing guide or consult with a healthcare provider to find your ideal fit.
- What distinguishes the Selene Cup from the Hera Cup?
- The Selene Cup is shorter, tailored for comfort with a lower cervix. In contrast, the Hera Cup features a longer handle to aid those with a higher cervix, ensuring effortless retrieval.
- Is the Nyla Cup appropriate for those who have never used a menstrual cup before?
- Yes, Nyla Cups are designed to be user-friendly for both new and experienced menstrual cup users. We recommend starting with our smallest size and working up as needed to find your perfect match.
- How should I insert and remove the Nyla Cup?
- Insert the folded Nyla Cup into your vagina, allowing it to open and form a seal. For removal, gently pull the stem of the Hera Cup or pinch the base of the Selene Cup, break the seal with a slight squeeze, and ease it out. Always maintain hand hygiene during this process.
- How do I care for my Nyla Cup between uses?
- After your cycle, clean your Nyla Cup by boiling it for 5-7 minutes. Avoid letting the cup touch the pot's bottom. Store it in the breathable pouch provided once it's dry.
- Are Nyla Cups made from safe materials?
- Yes, Nyla Cups are crafted from medical-grade silicone, which is BPA-free, latex-free, and free from harmful chemicals, ensuring safety and comfort.
- Can leaks occur with Nyla Cups, and how can I prevent them?
- When positioned correctly, Nyla Cups provide a leak-resistant seal. If you do encounter leaks, it may be due to improper placement or sizing. Ensure the cup is fully unfolded inside and experiment with different folds for better placement. Check if the size is right for your cervix height and menstrual flow.
- Is it possible to stay active while wearing a Nyla Cup?
- Absolutely! The Nyla Cup is designed to securely fit and allow you to engage in various activities, including sports and swimming, without any worry of displacement or leaks.
- How do I decide between the Selene and Hera Cups?
- If you have a lower cervix or prefer a shorter cup for comfort, go for the Selene Cup. Choose the Hera Cup if you have a higher cervix or desire a longer stem for ease of removal.
