Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Before first use, sterilize the Lily Cup B by boiling it in water for 5-7 minutes. Ensure you have clean hands.
  2. Folding: Flatten the opening with the tall rim facing away from you. Then simply roll your cup upwards.
  3. Insertion: As you would with a tampon, angle your period cup towards your tailbone and insert it upwards until the removal stem is inside. The tall rim of the period cup should be situated towards your back.
  4. Placement: Run your finger around the cup to make sure it’s entirely open. If it is, it’s placed correctly.
  5. Removal: Gently push the cup down and grip the stem to slowly pull downwards. Once you can feel the base of the cup squeeze it to release the seal.
  6. Cleaning: After removal, wash the cup with mild, unscented soap and warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
  7. Storage: Store the cup in the provided pouch. Avoid storing in airtight containers when not completely dry.

Compatibility: The Lily Cup B is compatible with most individuals, but is specifically recommended for those who have given birth or have a weaker pelvic floor. Always consult a healthcare professional if you have any concerns.

Care: Regularly inspect the cup for any signs of damage or wear. Replace the cup if you notice any changes in the material. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
