Details→ This sustainable, long-wear mini period cup is made from 100% ultra-premium medical-grade silicone and features a detachable ribbon to move with your body. The midi size is recommended for those who have given birth vaginally and/or have a heavy menstrual flow. The Midi Cone is the perfect option if you have regular to heavy flows or have given birth vaginally before. This size fits average-to-high cervix heights (the length of half-to-whole of your index finger). You can measure your cervix by inserting a clean index finger into your vagina. Keep moving until the tip of your finger is touching your cervix. You’ll be able to distinguish your cervix from the rest of your vagina, as the tissue is a little bit firmer than your vaginal walls. If you can only get the first knuckle of your finger in then you have a very low-short cervix height (so we recommend the Mini Cone). If you can get the second knuckle or more in then this cup is perfect for you!
Safe, flexible and comfortable to wear while sleeping, exercising and underwater, it offers longer wear than tampons with up to 12 hours’ wear at a time—a great beginner’s option to give you peace of mind if timekeeping isn’t your forte.
How to use→
Step 1
Attach the ribbon (if you want to add it) with clean hands to your sterilised Coralcone.
Step 2
Push down on the rim so it creates a spout. Spout first, insert into the vagina towards the small of your back. Once in position, squeeze the base so it pops open. Give it a gentle tug to check it’s securely in place.
Step 3
Remove the Coralcone with clean hands. You can use the ribbon to help you reach the base. Pinch the sides in so it releases the seal, gently pull downwards and tilt to slide out. Empty the contents into the toilet, rinse with clean water and reinsert.
Ingredients→ Made in New Zealand from 100% ultra-premium medical-grade silicone with a luxuriously silky matte finish. It’s the same material used to create breast implants so it's designed to be worn safely inside the body for long periods of time. Hypoallergenic and non-toxic.
The boring bits→
Before first use and after each period…
Sterilise your Coralcone by boiling it in water for 5 minutes or soak it in a sterilising solution (follow the manufacturer’s instructions). Make sure you sterilise both the cup and the silicone ribbon—you can separate them if you want to ensure a thorough clean!
During your period…
→ Empty your cup 2 or 3 times a day (at least every 12 hours, optimally every 8), depending on the heaviness of flow.
→ If you drop your Coralcone on the floor or in the toilet bowl, wash and sterilise it again before you use it.
→ Do not use if you have a vaginal abrasion.
→ If you experience any pain, burning, irritation, inflammation, or discomfort urinating, remove and contact your doctor.
→ Check with your doctor before using if you have an IUD/IUS or any known gynaecological condition.
