Reusable Menstrual Cup & Microwave Steriliser
Our menstrual cups are manufactured here in Australia with 100% Medical Grade silicone
First, rinse your cup thoroughly with a fragrance-free, oil-free mild soap under running water paying special attention to cleaning out the small holes around the rim. Then, sterilise your here in the microwave (1000W) for 60 seconds using our TOM Organic steriliser. Or, by placing the cup in boiling water on the stove for 4-5 minutes (don’t let it touch the bottom). For more detailed instructions, please read the information booklet supplied with your cup.
Our microwave period cup sterilisers have been independently tested to ensure they meet health and safety standards and kill 99.9% of bacteria commonly found on a menstrual cup.
You can use any fragrance-free, oil-free mild soap.
A period cup is a small flexible cup worn internally during your period to collect menstrual fluid. Unlike pads or tampons, it doesn’t absorb anything, it simply sits in place until you’re ready to empty it. Many people move towards a reusable period cup because it feels simpler over time and cuts back on single-use products each month.
It’s really important that silicone is stored in a breathable environment, so we suggest you store your menstrual cup in the cotton bag provided in between cycles. The steriliser case should only be used for sterilising and for carrying your cup for less than 12 hours.
No, it is not recommended to have sex with a cup in. A menstrual cup is not a contraceptive device and will not protect against pregnancy or STIs. If you are looking to explore having sex whilst on your period read our guide to period sex.
Yes, you can do almost anything with your cup inserted, like you would a tampon as long as you have a secure seal.
If you are regularly washing your cup between each use, staining should be limited. We do not advise bleaching or cleaning your cup with anything other than warm soapy water as harsh chemicals can both deteriorate the silicon and be harmful to your body. If your cup is stained, it’s just part of your period and something we think you should own and be proud of!

Get comfortable, take a deep breath, go for a walk and try again in 10-30 minutes. Then try again, squeezing down on the sides of your cup. The more relaxed you are the easier the cup will be for removal so please remain calm and relax your body to generate the removal of the cup.
If you are unable to do so we would be happy to support you over the phone (during Melbourne office hours on +61 3 8595 4390), however, we also encourage you to visit your local GP or hospital department for support in removal.
