Wash your hands

Some people like to wet the rim of the menstrual cup before inserting. Others use a water-based lubricant to help it slide in more easily. Many women just insert the cup without either water or lubricant.
-
With the rim of the circle facing up, fold the cup in half - you’ll need to fold it tightly in one hand. Use the other hand to spread your labia.
-
Pointing the rim up, the cup goes inside your vagina the same way a tampon gets inserted.
-
As you loosen your grip, the cup will open from its folded position. You may need to rotate it a little when it is inside. Just like with a tampon, it shouldn’t hurt or even be very noticeable when you stand up. If your cup feels uncomfortable, it’s in wrong.
