Buying checklist
The product page checklist for careful cup buyers.
A good decision starts with details you can verify. Use this page to scan a menstrual cup listing for measurements, instructions, care guidance, included items, and support before you buy.
This guide summarizes verified MonthlyCup manufacturer information only where supplied. Current shop details, prices, offers, and stock can change and should be checked on the live shop.
Checklist mindsetMeasure first. Interpret second.
1. Look for numbers, not labels alone.
Words such as mini, normal, and plus are easier to understand when the page also gives actual dimensions. MonthlyCup’s published guide lists model measurements in millimetres and capacity to the holes.
| Model | Diameter | Cup length | Total length | Capacity to holes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini | 37 mm | 45 mm | 55 mm | 15 ml |
| Normal | 43 mm | 55 mm | 65 mm | 22 ml |
| Plus | 47 mm | 55 mm | 65 mm | 43 ml |
2. Check the choice logic.
The MonthlyCup guide advises comparing measurements together with individual flow and preferences. It also says age or childbirth alone are not a size rule, and no model is guaranteed to fit everyone.
- Compare diameter and length instead of relying on a single label.
- Notice how the capacity is measured, such as capacity to the holes.
- Think of flow and preferences as part of the decision, not proof of a perfect fit.
- Avoid product pages that turn general labels into universal promises.
3. Check what is supplied.
The verified MonthlyCup Normal Pink product information lists medical-grade silicone and manufacture in Sweden. It also says the product is supplied with a fabric storage pouch and an instruction manual.
For other models, confirm the current product page before purchase rather than assuming the same wording applies.
4. Read the instructions before you need them.
A menstrual cup requires a handling routine. Before buying, check that the manufacturer tells you how to prepare, use, empty, remove, clean, dry, store, and inspect the cup.
During use
The manufacturer instruction summary says to wash hands, empty according to flow and no later than 12 hours, and release the seal before removal instead of pulling the stem alone.
Between periods
The guide says to boil between periods as instructed, dry fully, store with air circulation, and replace damaged, sticky, or noticeably changed silicone.
5. Separate verified facts from marketing language.
Some claims need evidence this checklist does not have. If a page promises a perfect fit, quantified environmental benefits, a fixed lifetime, or guaranteed performance, look for a clear source before treating it as fact.

Checklist FAQ
Quick answers for reading a product page with care.
What is the first thing to check on a menstrual cup product page?
Check whether the page provides exact measurements: diameter, cup length, total length including stem, and capacity. Labels such as Mini or Plus are more useful when the numbers are shown.
What MonthlyCup measurements are verified here?
