FAQs
How do menstrual cups work?
A menstrual cup is a bell-shaped device that collects period flow. Fold your cup in half and insert into your vagina. Your cup will pop open and form a leak-proof seal. You can wear your cup for up to 12 hours. To remove, locate your cup using the removal ring, then pinch to break the seal and wiggle your cup out. You can wash your cup and re-use it straight away.
Is the Asan cup safe to use?
Yes, it is extremely safe. The Asan cup is made from USP Class VI silicone, which is the same material used in heart stents. It is biocompatible and does not contain plastics, toxins, BPAs or harmful chemicals. We have a patent for our design and follow strict quality standards.
Why should I get a cup and cleanser together?
Formulated by scientists, the Asan OneDrop cleanser is the easiest way to clean the Asan cup. Squeeze one drop of the cleanser onto the cup and wash thoroughly with water. Using the cleanser consistently each time you empty your cup prevents odours and stains. Please do not use commercial soaps on your cup as they can damage the silicone.
What comes in the box?
Your purchase includes an Asan cup, cloth storage pouch, a welcome card, an illustrated user guide and an Asan OneDrop cleanser. Our packaging is 95% recyclable.
Is it worth the price?
As menstrual cups are inserted into the body, it is important to choose a safe and trusted brand. Many menstrual cup brands buy and resell generic products. By contrast, Asan patented our own menstrual cup design, and we control every aspect of the manufacturing process. This enables us to meet the worlds highest quality standards. The Asan cup is a truly safe and durable product that you can rely on for up to 10 years.
