On the other hand, you can opt for a heart-fold by pressing the sides of the cup together and fold in half to form a tight U-shape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Twist while you insert and release once inserted. The stem of the cup should be around your vaginal opening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ensure that the cup has opened up and it does not feel loose. You may hear a &#8220;pop&#8221; or suction sound if the cup is inserted correctly. Alternatively, you can slightly pull the stem and if you feel resistance, it suggests that the suction has been created. When in doubt, reach to feel the base of the cup and it should feel round and oval with no noticeable folds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Each menstrual cup can last you about 10 to 12 hours on average, depending on your flow!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000; margin-bottom: 15px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How To Remove<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Wash your hands with non-fragrance soap and water.\u00a0Squeeze your pelvic floor muscles to push the cup to the opening of the vagina.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Hold your bottom and squeeze to release the suction slowly to release.\u00a0Drain and wash the cup under cold or warm water with non-fragrance soap and water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Re-insert if needed, as per the steps shown above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000; margin-bottom: 15px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How Many Disposables It Can Replace<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/sustainabledevelopment\/blog\/2018\/07\/freedom-cup\/#:~:text=Made%20of%20medical%20grade%20silicone,disposable%20sanitary%20products%2C%20Vanessa%20said.\">Each cup can replace about 5,000 disposable sanitary products.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000; margin-bottom: 15px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">End of Life Treatment<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Landfill<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 24px; color: #000; margin-bottom: 15px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Read More About It On Our Blog<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/thesustainabilityproject.life\/blog\/2020\/08\/16\/the-wonders-of-freedom-cups\/\">The Wonders of Freedom Cup\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_zigzag color=&#8221;black&#8221; el_width=&#8221;10&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Say goodbye to disposable pads or tampons, and never let your period affect your lifestyle activities again!<\/p>\n<p>This menstrual cup is sworn by many ladies and is your first step towards a less waste period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your purchase funds our educational efforts, enables us to continue pushing the zero waste movement in Singapore, support local makers and reduce the waste sent to our Semakau landfill.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"vc_custom_heading\"><em>Note: We reuse used\/unwanted packaging materials to pack your orders without compromising protection.
