More about Mooncup®

The Mooncup® is a soft, silicone menstrual cup that you can reuse every time you get your period. While tampons absorb 35% vaginal moisture, the Mooncup menstrual cup won’t dry you out or leave fibres behind.

Holding 3 x more than a regular tampon, the Mooncup gives you longer lasting protection on heavier days. And because it’s non-absorbent, it won’t cause dryness when your period’s light.

Tried and trusted since 2002 by users around the world, the Mooncup menstrual cup offers an end to the waste, discomfort and expense of disposable sanitary protection.

FOR YOU
The healthier and convenient alternative to tampons and pads which saves you money too.

FOR OUR WORLD
Made to last for years, the Mooncup® menstrual cup is an easy way to dramatically reduce the waste you produce.

FOR OUR FUTURE
Mooncup ltd is an employee-owned, ethical, multi-award winning business.
