Hey, I had heard about menstrual cups yers ago but it seamed weird. A medical change in my life made my period so heavy this past year I was soaking through tampons and pads almost every 2 hours on my heavy days. So on a friends advice I decided to give it a try.It works so well, I still wear a pad just in case on my heavy days but as long as I get to in correctly it does not leak at all. I have been using it for about 4 cycles at this point and I get it in correctly about 90% of the time.In truth the first month was tricky. It does take practice to know what it feels like to get it in correctly and how to push to remove it. But a little practice is all it takes. If you get frustrated take a day off and tray again later. It’s so worth it. I was confident in using it by the end of my second cycle.I will never go back to tampons, I love is method.

This cup is the best thing that I've ever used for my periods! I am a very heavy bleeder, i get the miserable type of periods 🙄😖, super tampax and size 5 pads would lasts me 2 hours! Is that bad! so after trying flex discs I was a little sceptical to try this cup thinking it would be sort of the same thing... boy was I wrong! I'm on my 3rd day using it and I'm in love with this thing!!! I can wear it for 6 hours without leaks!! I'm so happy I gave this a try! This is a game changer! I was a bit nervous the 1st day about putting in but it actually took a couple of tries and that was it! I'm very very happy with this cup!

I’m not fan of this cup even though I really want to be. I bought it because of its large capacity. Sadly, it leaks constantly. I’m not new to using a cup, so this is quite frustrating. It will leak when it barely has anything in it. It’s not like it will start leaking right after putting it in. It will start to leak 3 hours later. I feel like it is loosing suction and falling out of me. Not good. Will have to order another one.

Hello Jo,
I'm sorry to hear that the Venus Cup didn't live up to your expectations. Although you are not new to menstrual cups, I hope that I can share some tips with you that might help eliminate the leaking issues.

Make sure to aim the cup down and back toward your tailbone (from a squatting position). Our cervix is not typically located straight up. If a cup is inserted as such, it may push the cervix to the side and not within the rim of the cup.

Insert a finger to feel around the cup and make sure it has expanded. If you feel any indents, pinch the base or spin the cup as best as you can to try to get the rim to open completely. If this doesn't work, rock the cup down and back & forth. Sometimes the cervix is in the way of allowing the rim to open.

After the cup is inserted, use a wet wipe or cloth to clean the base and stem. There is often residual blood coating the vaginal walls that eventually make its way onto your underwear with gravity.

I hope these tips help. If there's anything else I can help you with, please don't hesitate to contact us directly. We're here for support.
Best Wishes & Stay Well,
The Venus Cup Team

I ordered this in size Large because after getting off of hormonal birth control and getting the Paragard IUD instead, my period went back to how it was before the hormones - heavy! I started with the Luna cup (small I believe) and it just wasn't working for me anymore, I had to empty it every few hours or else I'd be leaking (Luna is still a great cup, just too small for me now!)Enter Venus! It's incredible. It isn't the softest cup I've ever used, but it's not overly firm. I'd say it's a soft medium. Good grip rings, easy to feel it open and make sure it's completely open. And I only have to empty it once every 12 hours!! Incredible! This has answered my prayers and I don't fear overfilling anymore.

I really love my Venus Cup! The first time was a little difficult to figure it out but after that it has been increasingly easy. I do not feel it all when I wear it, and I have never had leakage problems even if I insert it at a weird angle, it fixes itself. Great product to save money, time, and reduce the waste from pads/tampons!

Reply from Venus Cup Team:
Hi Erica,

I'm sorry to hear that you found the large Venus Cup rim too soft. We tried to keep it a medium firmness by including an inner ring to help the rim open. Unfortunately, it still isn't the firmness you hoped for.
If you ever feel like giving the Venus Cup a try again, there are some helpful tips in the user manual that might help troubleshoot getting the rim to open.
I'll include a couple here:
Insert the cup halfway, allow it to open, and then use a finger to push it into place.
Insert the cup halfway, press it to the vaginal wall and let it expand. Then use a finger to push it into place.
Often when a softer cup is inserted all the way, the cervix will block the rim from opening. Allowing the cup to open lower in the vaginal canal may avoid this.
We are also always available for support.
Otherwise, I hope that you find the perfect cup for your periods even if it isn't the Venus Cup.

Best Wishes!

I never used this but ordered a few to see which I’d like. I opened this and saw how HUGE it was and put it back and returned it.
Reply from Venus Cup Team:
Hi Rachel,

I'm sorry to hear that the large Venus Cup looked too big for your liking. The small Venus Cup might be a better option. Although it is labeled as a small cup, it still holds 29ml which is a milliliter shy of what the average large-size menstrual cup holds. We have reached out to you with some options. Please feel free to contact us directly should you have any questions.

Best of Luck,

I can’t even express how happy I am to have finally found the right cup for me.I have been searching for years. I’ve bought and tried over 6 different cups. It was so frustrating because every company claimed either I was putting it in wrong, one size fits all mentality or I needed to keep giving it a try. I know my body!My cervix is high and either the cups would move too high and I would leak everywhere or they would move too low and I would leak everywhere. It was so frustrating to use tampons and pads and know the damage I was doing to the environment.AND THEN! I tried the Venus cup. And it is perfect for my high cervix. My relief is so immense I could cry. I won’t claim this is the perfect cup for everyone, because we are all different, but I will say don’t give up. Your cup is out there somewhere.

I started using cups with the Lily cup and love them. They save money and help save the earth from more trash. Anyway, I ordered this one because the lily only handles so many mL and heavy flows require bigger cups. I looked for reviews and found this one on a YouTube review. Ordered it the other day, came in a day later and I put it on right away. First thing - wash it well with warm soap and a non-abrasive cleaner, preferably baking soda or even vaginal cleaners - keeps the silicone from wearing down. Used the taco fold method and it was easy in! I can't feel it at all, unlike the Lily cup where I feel the pull out nub even when lying down. I think this is a great investment!

So menstrual cups are kinda tricky to find and select. It's not easy to get advice from your friends, co-workers, and other women on which cup might work best. All of us have different vaginas. No two cervix are made a like. And some of us have heavy, unpredictable cycles, while others are light as a feather, stiff as a board. I want to share my experience, and if yours sounds similar, this maybe this will help you make a decision.This is my 3rd cup, and the first one that has worked for the level of very heavy cycles that plagues me. To put that into context, prior to transitioning to the cup, I was wearing Ultra tampons and a backup pad. I am a 34 year-old mother, but delivered via emergency c-section only. I have what is considered a high cervix. My prior cups were the Flex Cup (in whatever the largest size is) and the Saalt (also in the largest size). My primary issue with both of those cups is I would leave the house at 0700 for work, and be leaking before 0900 regularly. Not that they are not good cups, but they just were not right for my body. The Flex was the better between those 2, but definitely not better than the Venus.I reviewed the menstrual cup comparison chart on the "Put it in a Cup" website, and it directed me to Venus. A proper fitting cup is the key (the website also has a quiz if you are interested in trying to narrow down your options). And Venus has propelled me to Cup Level: ZEN. It is comfortable, for me. It has great suction. And I have not had and leakage problems, even on my extremely heavy days 2-3. I honestly forgot that I was wearing a cup at some point in the day, and that is incredible.This cup thing may be a little trickier to narrow down which one is right for you, but if you have a high cervix, have delivered a baby vaginally or caesarean, bleed heavy, the I would consider this cup without a doubt!!!

I’ve used a regular size saalt cup for about 6 months before trying the large Venus and I will never go back. The Venus cup is so much softer, more flexible, easier to grip, and has a higher capacity! The saalt cup would occasionally create too much suction at my cervix and cause extremely severe cramping, but this cup has a slightly larger, softer rim so I don’t have that problem, but still no leaks! If you have a heavy flow and have had trouble finding a comfortable cup, you neeeeeed to try this one.

Good for those with extra heavy flow. Still have to check it on those days as it doesn’t always last all day at work. However, this has been the most promising one yet.As for comfort of use, inserting is the most uncomfortable part but of course it’s generally just a very mild discomfort due to it being rubber and not always gliding perfecting smooth.
Reply from Venus Cup Team:
Hi Rachael!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the large Venus Cup. I understand that some individuals with a very heavy flow might need to empty their cups more frequently, but I'm happy to hear that it has been able to last you a good part of the day.

The Venus Cup is made of 100% medical-grade silicone in an FDA registered facility in the USA. Although silicone should move easily with a bit of moisture, some water-based lubricant might be helpful. A fold that creates a small insertion point may also be for comfortable.

Although it sounds like you're off to a good start, please feel free to contact us directly should you need support.

I really wanted to like this cup because of the larger capacity but sadly, it didn't work out for me. It's just way too soft and I had a heck of a time getting it to open. I do have to say tho that the guide this comes with is VERY helpful.
Reply from Venus Cup Team:
Hello Pandorica,

I'm happy to hear that the large Venus Cup had the capacity that you were looking for, but sad that it was too soft to perform as it needed for you.
If you don't mind giving it another try, here are a few tips that might help:

-Run the cup under cold water to firm up the silicone.
-Allow the cup to open while it's half-way inserted.
-Insert the cup, release, and then wiggle the cup downward a bit.
If a cup is inserted all the way, sometimes the cervix blocks the rim from opening as it needs to. A very firm cup may push the cervix out of the way, which can be painful, but a softer cup may need some help.

Again, I'm sorry that the Venus Cup didn't work for you right out of the box. I hope these tips help or that you find another cup that does work for you even if it isn't the Venus Cup.

Please feel free to contact us directly should you need further support.

Caveat-if you are a first time cup user, the large size is probably not a good cup. You are essentially putting something the size of a shot glass into your vagina-start with the smaller size.For the more experienced user, I LOVE this thing. It’s an absolute workhorse. Usually, when I wake up, I have to make a mad dash for the bathroom to deal with my cup the has overflowed. Not this thing. I went to the bathroom, no leakage, and went back to bed to read Facebook. Completely recommend this and grab some period underwear as a backup-life changing.

After the birth of my 3rd child and 3rd time suffering from 3rd degree delivery tearing requiring surgery, I found that the tapered style of cups no longer worked for my body. After experimenting with 4 other styles, I tried this one. It has been a sanity saver and works perfectly because it is not tapered so it does not shift in position throughout the day or night. I have full on heavy hemorrhage-like flow and even when exercising heavily, I can go 6-10 hours using this cup as opposed to changing extra super jumbo tampons every hour. I save $15 a month, feel better about my monthly environmental impact, and don’t have to worry about damaging my septic system using my Venus cup! So glad I took one last chance on a new style of cup. Pro tip: when away from home and needing to empty your cup in public, bring a bottle of water with you into the stall to rinse.

I am very happy with this cup. It is just right on firmness at a 3 of not to hard and not too soft. It comes with a really nice instruction book.I love my new Venus Cup. I ordered it at the end of my last period and just got to try it out. I believe it is my goldilocks cup. It is a medium firmness. For me that means it opens easy and doesn't cause me any discomfort. It doesn't cause any cramping or pressure on my bladder. It is a high capacity cup and this is the first time I have slept all night without any leaking in a long time. The only thing I would change if given the chance is I would make the stem longer. I have a high cervix. I can get it out it just takes a little longer pushing to get it out.

I used previously Pixie Cup ... that one didn't work for me. However this Venus one works for new. I like the longer neck on this one. The suction is great, NO LEAKAGE! Its thicker than the Pixie but it is not uncomfortable at all. My cycle is HEAVY .. this cup did not fail me at all.

I'm a long time cup user and usually stick with my lunette, but was intrigued by this cup because of the higher capacity. I tried it this past cycle and had the worst experience. For the first time EVER, when I went to remove it, the cup was completely rotated so that the stem was pointing the wrong way and unreachable. It took forever and a lot of discomfort for me to get it into a position where I could remove since there were no edges to grab. Thinking it was a one-time situation and being proficient with cups, I tried it one more time and the same thing happened. I don't know if it's the rounded shape or what, but this cup is a total non-fit for my body. Two messes, two stressful removals and an expensive cup in the trash. Bummer.

We also apologize that you found the Venus Cup to be expensive. We tried to keep the cost reasonable without compromising quality.

I LOVE THIS CUP! I decided to use this for a while before leaving a review so it would be an accurate one. My very first cup was a Diva Cup which I had for many years, so that's all I have to compare this one to. This cup seems a bit bigger but it folds and goes in MUCH easier and I never really have an issue of it opening up and getting a suction like I did with the Diva Cup. This one is softer and quite comfortable, you can't tell its in once its in place! This cup is very easy to clean. During my cycle I wash it with hot water and a mild soap and when I'm done I boil it for about 7-10 minutes and then store it for the next time. With my Diva cup, I'd have a very hard time getting it to suction and work properly which causes leaking so I'd often end up using tampons instead. This Venus Cup fits right in with NO leaking! So I'm really happy about this one and finally not having to use tampons or bringing them as a back up just incase!

Love this cup! It’s not too big which I was worried about. I’ve had two vaginal births and I’m 38. I’ve had increased flow since my second little one. So far this cup is keeping up much better than my regular sized cup that was what the quiz told me to get. It unfolds easily. It’s my first month trying it so I’m still having some leaks but much better than with the smaller cup. I feel like once I get the hang of this one I might be okay with just a pantiliner during heavy days!

Hello Dawn,

Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience with the large Venus Cup. We're happy to hear that it wasn't as intimidating as you thought. It's always hard to gauge the size of a cup from photos. Sometimes they look huge!
The detailed user manual has some tips and tricks for troubleshooting - including a few for leaks, but I'll include one here.
For light leaks try wiping the grip rings and stem after the Venus Cup is inserted. Sometimes it's just some leftover blood that needs to be cleaned up before you go about your merry way.
You're always welcome to contact us directly should you need any support now or in the future. We're here for you.

Cheers and Happy 2020!

I love the convenience of this menstrual cup, especially as someone who has clotty periods, this works much better than tampons in terms of leaks. I also love that it uses so much less waste than tampons, pads, etc. It fit well and the learning curve, while initially messy, was not a big deal. The big problem I have had with it is that in 2 of the 3 months that I have used this product, I have gotten a UTI. The doctor told me that sometimes menstrual cups can push up against the bladder so it may be an anatomy thing. My doctor also suggested that I boil the cup between periods (I had been washing it but not boiling it), as well as taking cranberry pills at the onset of my period. I'm not ready to give up on the cup because of the above-mentioned reasons so I'm going to take my MD's advice, but if I continue to get UTIs, I will unfortunately have to give it up.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your experience with using the Venus Cup. We're happy to hear that you had an easy process of learning to use it and that it was comfortable. However, we're sorry to hear that you also experienced some extra pressure that may have contributed to UTIs.
Of course, all cups will apply some extra pressure but not all of them will be firm enough to contribute to UTIs. Unfortunately, the large Venus Cup may just be a bit too firm or wide for you.
If you are comfortable removing the Venus Cup without the stem, you can try turning the cup inside out. This will both slightly lessen the firmness and make the cup narrower. Both of which will help with the pressure. The Venus Cup is safe to use this way if you choose to.
We not only want you to have success with using a cup, but we also want you to be able to use one without any health issues as well, even if it isn't the Venus Cup.

Please feel free to contact us directly should you need any further support.

Best Wishes,

If you haven’t tried the cup JUST DO IT. It’s a life changer. You’ll never ever go back. If you have a super heavy flow, or your currently using a smaller cup like the diva and you feel it can’t keep up, this cup is for you. I started with the diva and I almost gave up because it still leaked often but I decided to give this one a try and I’m glad I did. It’s perfect for heavy flows.

Just finished my first cycle with this cup & it works so incredibly well I had to write a review. I have been using menstraul cups for a few years now. Yet I could never find one that worked every time on the first insertion. THIS CUP CHANGED THAT. Once I did a little research & discovered I have a high cervix along with a very heavy flow, I knew I needed a cup that was made for such. This one is it!!! This cup makes that time of month easy breezy. I forget I’m even on my cycle. Which if you’re someone whose always dreading your cycle for fear of leaks, ruined clothes etc, get this cup. You’ll never have to wonder if it’s in right or if you’re going to leak right thru within a few minutes after insertion. It Performs perfectly every time . There are 4 air holes & the rim of cup is strong silicone but not painful once inserted. The cup will actually open up once inside (which I know was my issue before with other menstraul cups). If you have a high cervix & heavy flow this cup is your godsend. GET IT!! & Then get back to being the badass goddess you are on your menstraul with this Venus cup.

Cup holds plenty and so don't have to change it often. It's a little softer than what I'm used to but still inserts relatively easily. It's difficult to tell if it has been inserted properly as it kinda feels like it's still collapsed inside but once you get the hang of moving it around and checking it, it's fine. I've had no leaks and my life is so much better because of it.

So when I started using cups I started with a small Diva Cup. I have some uterine issues, so I noticed that I leaked a lot even when keeping it in at the shortest times. I moved to a Large Super Jennie cup. That worked a little better but I had a tougher time trying to grasp the bottom of the cup to remove it, and it also leaked a lot. So, I decided to try the Large Venus cup and I think this is it! I have no problem removing or inserting it, it is very comfortable and don't leak as much....again I have some uterine issues that cause me to have volume problems. While I still move back and forth between my earlier cups, I highly recommend the Venus. I haven't tried the other sizes, but If you are a heavy flow person, the large one might be your cup.

This is the largest capacity cup I have found that can contain my heaviest flow days. Easy to insert and remove and so far no leaking issues. The color is really pretty but I’m sure after extended use, there will be staining issues. I’d prefer a darker solid color but that’s just preference.

Tip for staining:
-Rinse with cold water so the stains don't set in. Then you can turn it to hot water and give it a good wash.
-For stubborn stains, soak the cup in a solution of 50 water/50 Hydrogen Peroxide for an hour to make the cup shiny as new!

I have a heavy flow which isn't fun. Super plus tampons would last 30 minutes on my heavy days, ultra not much longer. I needed something different, I needed my freedom back on my heavy days. I had tried a competitor's cup but the capacity was far too little, causing leaks quickly. I was glad I found this cup because I can leave my house and not worry a bit where the nearest bathroom is wherever I go. It's a great cup from a great company, they even email you directly to see if they can help you with any issues.

In the picture I have a pink saalt, purple Venus, and clear diva cup for comparison. I have worn cups for years and my cervix is slightly shorter than medium. I was worried because in person this cup looks really big. Normally the saalt is my perfect cup except on my heaviest day I have to empty it every 4 to 6 hours and I was looking for a cup that could get me 8 hours so I could sleep through the night without waking up to change it. The Venus was hard to get in the first time and was uncomfortable to wear. Even with a trimmed stem it sits as low as is possible for me. I was worried it wouldn’t work for me but the second time I tried it opened up immediately I had no trouble with it and I couldn’t feel it at all while wearing it. And most importantly on my heaviest night I slept for 9 hours before I woke up and had to change it. This is perfect for me! I think I will only wear it on my heaviest night but at $20 it’s totally worth it and not even half the cost of the other large capacity cups.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! Even if it wasn't 100% perfect the first time you tried it, we're happy to hear that with a small adjustment, it allowed you a full night of rest. The icing on the cake for us is that you have a medium/low cervix and the large Venus Cup was still comfortable.

I have used both the Lunette Cup and the Diva Cup. I have a fairly heavy flow, which is why I chose menstrual cups in the first place (a cup gives me at least 2-3 hours when a super plus tampon only gave me 1-2 hours). During my typical college day, I wouldn't always have time to go to the bathroom and empty at the 2-3 hour mark, especially on lab days when I am in the lab for 3 hours straight. So I began to search for a cup with an even higher capacity that would also be a similar firmness to the cups I had been used to in the past. That's when I came across the Venus Cup! This cup does very well and has become my favorite out of the three I have used! It isn't so firm that it bothers my bladder but it is firm enough to retain its shape and pop open during placement. I did snip the stem off but that is due to my own preference. I had read that this cup was meant for people with higher cervixes, but as someone with a lower/very low cervix, I have not had any issues with that. It just rests inside of the cup which hasn't caused any issues. I now get around 5 hours without needing to empty and can imagine that someone who doesn't have such a very heavy flow as I do would get 8-12 hours. It came with a cloth bag for storage and shipped quickly and securely. I also liked that it was made in the USA! Definitely a cup that I would recommend and that I'm excited to see on the market! The very large capacities are harder to find in the US and I wasn't willing to pay shipping for one out of country, I am glad an option like this is available to women in the US now!
Reply from Venus Cup Team:
We appreciate that you took the time to leave us an excellent review! Nothing pleases us more than to hear that the Venus Cup compares to some of the other great cups out there. Especially coming from a long time cup user such as yourself.
We also couldn't be more happy to know that the features that we chose to include in the design, were features that you were seeking - soft body yet easy to open, high capacity, a rounded base for comfort, ample room to accommodate your cervix and your heavy flow, etc. We were worried that those with a low cervix might not find the length of the large very comfortable but wowed and thrilled to hear that it was perfect for you.

We hope that the Venus Cup will provide you with leak & mess-free periods for years to come.
