TESTIMONIALS

Suffering from heavy periods and clotting I had several severe leaks with tampons, as they don’t absorb clots. I have found the Mooncup much better, as it catches the flow rather than absorbing – so clots are no problem. No more having to carry tampons in my handbag or having the rather icky (not to mention environmentally dubious) disposal after use. Wish I’d known about the Mooncup years ago.

I’ve had a mooncup for about 8 years now. I can honestly say it is the most liberating product ever made. Unfortunately my puppy has just taken it out of the dishwasher (best way to wash them between periods) and eaten it! Oh well, I’ve placed my order for a replacement as there is no way I could live without my mooncup! Thank you

I was slightly nervous when I first opened my mooncup, it looked so big! I got size B because I’m 18, however I had fears it would be too wide, because I think I’m rather ‘narrow’, but I was so excited when I opened it I tried it straight away, and… it was perfect!! I got it in in a second and it formed a suction without me even noticing! I walked around in it a bit and I couldn’t even feel it, it was so comfortable!! I didn’t feel ‘stretched’ as I was scared I would, although I think I need to trim the stem a little. Anyway, breaking the suction was so easy; i just squeezed the base a little and got it out without any hassle and I don’t think anything would even have spilled!My sister laughed when she saw it because they’re a bit of a joke to immature people I guess, I think because they think they’re ‘gross’ but I do a lot of hiking and camping and honestly, it’s a lot less gross than having to pack out used tampons!
The mooncup is amazing, and I could not be more happy or satisfied so thank you very, very much!!

I have used mini tampons for over 10 years now and find they dry me out. Plus I care about the environment and quite like the idea of saving money whilst getting to know my body better so I ourchased a mooncup.I am now using my mooncup for its second period. For the first one I only used it during the evenings and the weekend when I was at home and knew I was in a safe place without feeling stressed or anxious. This time I am at work and feel secure and comfortable; I trimmed the stem as suggested which made all the difference! I also feel like my period is a bit of a novelty, which reminds me of the excitement at not knowing what to expect when I began menstruating in my teens! Thank you mooncup!

My friend told me about the Mooncup a year ago and I haven’t looked back since. It’s so comfy it’s unbelievable, and talk about discreet!I can’t even think about going back to sanitary towels now; they just feel dirty.

I was in bed with my boyfriend this morning, discussing periods etc, and I mentioned ‘mooncups’- something that a friend had heard of some time ago. We both agreed that they sounded kind of gross, but he insisted on googling.
After I read the testimonials, I was pretty much sold on the idea (well, very curious at least!)…I purchased one at Boots a few hours ago, and I’m happy to say that a) it is very easy to use, b) it’s surprisingly comfortable- more than tampons, in my opinion, and c) it’s actually a lot less unpleasant than tampons which are pretty unappealing. Of course, there are the eco-friendly and wallet-friendly advantages too.

It’s a shame that Mooncup.co.uk isn’t more widely known. Obviously word-of-mouth is the best and least expensive way of advertising, so girls, tell your friends! I think the company would do well by targeting the mainstream female population as well as alternative/eco-conscious women…maybe you could get a young, popular celebrity to endorse it?

I’m off to email this link to my friends!

I’m surprised that more people haven’t mentioned that you can wear this all day and the menstrual blood doesn’t smell. After three months, I still stare at it in amazement when I take it out, thinking of how terrible tampons and pads smell after the same length of time, and how companies manufacture special bins and little bags to deal with them.

I have been using a Mooncup for nearly 2 years now and I wont go back to tampons. I don’t miss the leaks I had with tampons or the horrible smell of tampons and pads. I couldn’t recommend this highly enough! It helps you be more in tune with your body and once you’ve got used to it (after a couple of months for me) you’ll wonder how you managed without it. I can’t believe people still use tampons and pads!!

I have endimetriosis and have onyl just started using the mooncup (this is my first period using it!). And already i have half the pain and feel more comfortable, i wish my gynacologist had recomended this to me as it is alot better than using tampons or towels, i will be telling all of my friends about it, i thinkits brilliant! It is obviously not a cure for endimetriosis, but it has made it alot easier to live with! I wish i had discovered the mooncup as soon as i was diagnosed!
Thank you so much, you have no idea how this has made my life better 🙂
