How do I know that my cup is full and that i have to empty it?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach user has to empty her cup depending on her flow. Heavy flow needs more frequent emptying. As the user gets used to the cup, she can perfectly gauge when her cup is full just like we knew when to change the pad. It is an instinct that cannot go wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3. Does the cup leak?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cup leaks only in the event that it is full or when it is not inserted properly. When inserted correctly, the lip of the cup forms a vacuum after insertion and prevents any leakage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4. Will the cup go deep inside my body? So deep that I cant get it out!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is impossible for the cup to get lost inside your body. Women with high cervix may sometimes not locate the cup immediately. In this case, relax your breathing, sit in a squatting position and try and push the cup out in the same way you would when you pass motion. The cup slides down easily. Panic causes your muscles to contract making it difficult for the cup to slide down. Once you get used to the cup the chances of such an experience is nil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5. Can I use the cup if I have an IUD (Intrauterine Device\/ Copper T)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is perfectly safe to use a cup if you have an IUD but please consult your Gynecologist before you do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6. Can I use a cup instead of maternity pads?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour vagina might be swollen and bruised post delivery so it is advisable not to use cups at this time. Wait for a few days and then you can resume using the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7. Can I exercise and swim with a cup?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes you can. Cups are so comfortable that many women who are into exercising and sports are increasingly switching to cups. Pads chaff and shift whereas a cup stays inside safely without shifting or chaffing issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e8. How do I clean my cup?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can sterilise your cup before and after every cycle by immersing the cup in boiling water or you could wash the cup thoroughly with hot water while you shower. Make sure that you do not use strong soap to wash your cup as remnants of soap can cause a yeast infection. You could use mild soaps or the feminine hygiene soaps if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9. Can young girls use the cup?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile it is perfectly safe to use the cup, many people dont approve of insertion at such a young age. Take a conscious decision after consulting with your gynaecologist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYour Impact\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSafer: Conventional sanitary napkins and tampons are a cocktail of plastics and chemicals fragrances, bleaches, softeners that come in contact with sensitive, highly absorbent parts of a woman's body.
