The Venus Cup collects the menstrual flow instead of absorbing without interfering with the body’s pH balance or natural processes. The Venus Cup is made of 100% Medical Grade Silicone and uses Medical Grade Colorants. The Venus Cup is manufactured in the USA and in an FDA registered facility. It should be! If you have any discomfort with it at any time, you may need to try different folding techniques, using a water-based personal lubricant, or changing the size. The Venus Cup is great for a light flow, heavy flow, very heavy flow, when you’re expecting your period but not bleeding yet, or even just to stay dry from discharge! The Venus Cup won’t have the familiar odor as a rotting disposable tampon or pad. Depending on your body and blood, the Venus Cup may periodically have an odor more like the smell of “iron”. This can be resolved – check this article for more info. Like with all menstrual cups, there is a chance of leaking. This is a very common problem among new users. It may take time and practice getting things just right, but there are some things that can be done to minimize this from happening – click here for more info! Everything under the moon and sun! The Venus Cup will allow you the freedom to carry on with your daily activities whether it be school, work, sports, or sleeping! There are some things to consider when choosing the correct size for you. To read more about choosing a size, please visit our Choosing the Correct Size page.

*Pro User Tip: To avoid spotting, after inserting the Venus Cup, use a wet pH balanced wipe or damp cloth to clean the grip rings and stem of any excess blood.
I'm sorry that you did not have a pleasant experience while using either size of the Venus Cup. Menstrual Cups are not a "one size fits all" type of product, just as we all have different body types. Many users with Endometriosis have been successful in using the Venus Cup and find that it relieves them of heavy bleeding for several hours compared to tampons or pads. However, not everyone will find it equally easy or comfortable depending on their cervical height. Knowing the location of your cervix can help you find a cup that will be more suited to your anatomy.
I hope that you decide to try another cup in the future even if it's not the Venus Cup.
Best wishes. Stay well.
The Venus Cup Team
I'm sorry to hear that you had such an unpleasant experience while using the Venus Cup Start Kit. I am also very sad that we failed to provide you with excellent customer service. I reply to every troubleshooting correspondence myself, and I don't recall receiving any inquiries about these specific issues through any of our media.
As you know, our bodies are all made differently. The same goes for each menstrual cup. As you have the starter kit, did the smaller, narrower size also press on your bladder? Usually, a smaller cup will relieve this issue.
Seal and suction are two things that differ from one person to the next. I'm sorry that the Venus Cup created such a strong suction for your anatomy.
Although we chose a medium firmness (comparable to the Diva Cup), everyone has a different degree of what soft and firm are. Some individuals will find the Venus Cup to be too soft, others find it too firm, and many will find it just right.
If a menstrual cup is positioned correctly, it should not move freely. That is a potential for leaks. Choosing the correct shape and size for your body will put a cup in the optimal position and will not need to adjust. However, a shorter cup will move up closer to your cervix because the vaginal canal will allow for it. For a user with a low cervix, a short cup will be more comfortable.
If you have a high cervix and a short cup, it may be difficult to remove, as well as allow your cervix to sit deep into the cup and take up the capacity.
A longer cup (like the large Venus Cup), will have the length, is not likely to move up too high, and can be reached easily.
Since you have tried 4-5 different brands, you know that menstrual cups are not a "one size fits all" type of product. I'm just sorry that the Venus Cup wasn't the one for you.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I hope that one of the other 4-5 cups works better for you.
Best wishes.
Correa & The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for sharing all of the details about your cup journey as well as your experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit.
Reading what you had to go through to remove one cup and having the next stay crushed, sounds frustrating! I can see why you would be on the search for another. We're honored that you took a chance with the Venus Cups.
We're happy to hear that the small Venus Cup was everything that you needed it to be and that you shared that even though it is the smaller and shorter cup, it still worked for your high cervix.
We hope that the larger Venus Cup will also be of some use to you should your periods become heavier.
It sounds like you have everything under control, but please don't forget that we're here if you need us.
Cheers to easy & comfortable period protection!
The Venus Cup Team
You are amazing! Thank you for taking a few moments to share your positive experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. It sounds like the large Venus Cup is the perfect combo of features for your body and situation and we're honored to hear you compare it with such a well-known brand, too! I hope that it continues to provide you with easy, comfortable, and high capacity, period protection for years and years.
Cheers to mess & leak-free periods!
Best wishes,
The Venus Cup Team
I'm sorry to hear that your teen had some issues learning how to use either size of the Venus Cup. There is a learning curve and it will take some practice. If your teen is willing to try again, some water-based lubricant may be very helpful. The user manual was tailored with new users in mind, so have them browse through that as well. If all else fails, we're here for one on one support. Just contact us directly and we would be happy to work through any issues.
In the end, if your teen is not comfortable with using the Venus Cup, we understand. Menstrual cups are not a "one fits all" type of item and it just may not be the cup or menstrual product for them.
Best wishes to you both.
The Venus Cup Team

Thank you for sharing that even though you had to do some troubleshooting, the Venus Cup has become your favorite. That means a lot of us from a multi-cup user.

The Venus Cup Team
I appreciate that you took a few moments to share your experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. Thank you for pointing out that even though you are over a certain age in which most cup companies would suggest the large size, that the smaller size was actually the better option for you. I'm happy that at least one of them was comfortable.
Tip: If you're having some trouble getting the Venus Cup to open, try only inserting it halfway before releasing the fold. Sometimes the cervix gets it the way of the rim expanding.
Please don't hesitate to contact me directly should you need support.
Best wishes. Stay well.
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to share your experience while using the Venus Cup Starter Kit. Although it has been slightly harder for you to insert without a tapered base, I'm happy to hear that you can work it out and that it has the capacity that you were seeking.
Thank you for the recommendation!
Cheers to high capacity menstrual cups!
Stay well.
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to share your experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. I'm pleased to hear that the large was easy to open and that it had the capacity that you hoped for. However, I'm sorry to hear that the small wasn't in perfect [manufacturing] condition. The Venus Cup Team has reached out to you directly and hope that we can make things right.
Please don't hesitate to contact us again if you have any further issues or concerns. We're here to support you in any way that we can.
Best wishes. Stay well.

I'm happy to hear that the Venus Cup Starter Kit has been working well with your anatomy and that it opened without any problems. I'm also pleased to hear that it has the capacity that you were hoping for.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and including that the large size worked for you even if you haven't had any kids. People tend to think that they have to use a small cup if they've never had kids. You've proven that it isn't always the case.
Cheers to leak-free, high capacity cups!
Best wishes. Stay well.

Thank you for purchasing the Venus Cup Starter Kit.

Thank you for sharing some very great details about your experience with the Venus Cup Start Kit. I'm happy to hear that it was easy to use, comfortable to wear, and had the capacity that you were hoping for. However, not being able to use the toilet while the cup is in use is a big challenge!
To be honest, this is a new one for me. I have heard of users feeling the extra pressure and having a slower urine stream, but never someone who couldn't 'perform' at all. I totally understand how this might not be the cup for you!
If you're willing to try and can reach the large cup without a stem, turn it inside out and see if that doesn't give you relief. It's safe to use this way if it works, or at least will provide you with period protection until you find something that does.
Please don't hesitate to contact us directly should you require one on one support. We're here for you.
Stay well.
The Venus Cup Team
O.M.Goodness! I can't thank you enough for all of the wonderful detailed information and experience that you shared while using the Venus Cup Starter Kit (even if you haven't tried the small size yet).
I appreciate all of the comparison information that you included, as well. It can be very helpful for other users to hear about since those are two very popular cups for individuals with a high cervix.
We're happy that you didn't give up on cups after your other attempts and hope that the Venus Cup can provide you with the protection that you were hoping for all along.
We understand that using a cup can be tricky. So, although we try not to send spam mail we want our users to know that we're here for support. Just contact us directly at any time for one on one assistance.
Cheers to high capacity and no leaks!
Best Wishes. Stay well.
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to share your experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. We're happy to hear that you were able to work out the kinks and get through the learning curve so quickly. However, I'm sorry that even the large still doesn't hold you over for the night. Your periods sound extremely heavy. If you're not breastfeeding, I would suggest asking your doctor if it would be safe for you to take some herbal supplements (even tea) that might help with excessive menstrual bleeding. I too suffered from extremely heavy periods and found some relief. I'm not a physician, so please ask one if it's something you think might benefit you.
Anyhow, I'm still happy that you were able to replace hundreds of thousand tampons with two Venus Cups. Please feel free to contact me directly now or in the future should you need any support. I'm here for you.
Cheers to a little more sleep time!
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to leave feedback on your experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. I'm sorry that they seemed too small and that they caused some discomfort.
However, I would like to thank you for pointing out that just because they didn't work for you, doesn't mean that they won't work for the next person. We're all different and it's important for people to know that one size does not work for all. We appreciate that, and you, and hope that you find another cup that feels and works better for you even if it isn't the Venus Cup.
Best wishes,
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit. We're happy to hear that they have the capacity (even with the size small) that you were hoping for and that they are easy and comfortable to use.

I’m sorry that the Venus Cup didn’t work out for you. It can take some practice whether it’s your first time using a cup or it’s a new cup in your collection. I know that you tried different insertion techniques but I’m going to share some tips that you might have missed. Maybe something below will help.
- The cervix is not normally located straight up. Instead, insert the folded cup down and back towards your tailbone while in a squat on the ground. This will help put the cup in a better position under or around your cervix.
- If the cup will not open, try wiggling it down a bit and then use a finger to push it back into place. Often when a cup is inserted completely, the cervix is in the way of letting the rim expand. Wiggling it down will let the cervix correct itself.
- You can also insert the cup half way, let it expand (below the cervix) and then use a finger to push it up into place.
If you’re spotting after the cup is inserted, try wiping the base and stem with a wet cloth to remove any excess blood. It’s common that there is some blood on the outside of the cup that finds its way out eventually, and inconveniently.
I hope that these tips help with the Venus Cup or any cup. Please don’t hesitate to contact us directly should you ever need support. We’re always here to help.

We couldn’t be more pleased that after some practice, the small Venus Cup met your period needs. We’re also happy to hear that it was able to keep you feeling comfortable and dry for 12 hours. We hope that after some time, the stem will become easier to reach for removal. In the meantime, you may want to squat in the tub for easier access.
Cheers to mess & leak-free periods!
The Venus Cup Team
However, I'm sorry that the stem was not long enough for easy removal. I would suggest squatting or bearing down with your muscles to bring the cup lower for an easier reach. If you still find that the small is too short, the larger size might be a bit easier to maneuver.
Good health, stay well.
Cheers,
The Venus Cup Team
Thank you for taking a moment to share your positive experience with the Venus Cup Starter Kit.
