The actual silicone material used to mold our cups has not been and will never be tested on animals. Because FDA standards require animal testing to demonstrate the safety of silicone used in Class II medical devices, the silicone formula we use is based on a history of animal testing that is required for approval, but thankfully no on-going testing is required. Thanks for checking! **Q: Hello, i accidentally ordered the wrong size cup. can i return the cup and order the smaller size or should i contact the seller about it?** A: I would check with amazon customer service. If they're unable to accept the return contact Saalt, they have a satisfaction guarantee **Q: What do you do when the cup goes up too high and is hard to take out? Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I’ve had to lay down to remove it** A: This happened to me once and I read about it and the best way is to relax and push down with your muscles, the cup eventually will come back down to a reachable position. I think in my case it happened because I leave it inside for too long and I also worked out before which probably modified the cups position. **Q: How do you wash the little holes near the rim?** A: Hi there! One simple method for cleaning the air holes is to fill the cup with water, place your hand over the cup, flip and squeeze to pass water through the air holes. You will probably want to do this carefully over a sink or the toilet since the water can shoot quite far if you squeeze hard! However, if anything has been left to dry in the air holes and boiling your cup did not soften it enough to be easily cleared with our water cleansing method, we do have another handy trick! Fold your cup along each air hole to gently stretch it out, and wipe with a piece of toilet paper. Do this for all four air holes. You'll notice that our air holes are at an angle, so you'll need to flip your cup inside out and clean the other side, as well. And voilà! Clean air holes! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My life is changed forever *by on Reviewed in the United States June 8, 2026* This is a complete period game changer for me!!! I got the saalt small disc and I absolutely LOVE IT so much!!! I have never given birth so I bought a bunch of different size small discs and so far this is the only one I have tried, but I feel like it's already the BEST one!! I stopped wearing tampons a few years ago because on my heavy days I was soaking up super plus tampons every 2 hours on heavy days and I drink so everytime I peed my tampon would fill up with pee then my mini pad would get wet and have to change both everytime!! So I switched just to pads. I was sooo sick of waking up to blood in my underwear every morning with the overnight pads and everytime I went to pee looking down, seeing and smelling blood was getting to be really annoying and gross. I thought this would be really awesome too because no stinky big pads in my trash can anymore!! If I was living with a guy he would probably love me for making the switch!! LolSo I tried this disc and insertion was a bit difficult, but I got it in up behind my pubic bone easily and then couldn't even feel like I was wearing anything all!! It was like I didn't even have my period!!! I was amazed!!! So I went 16 hours by accident my 1st night from 6pm to 8:45am with it in because I didn't know there was a 12 hour time limit and I was sleeping and when I woke up it did start to overflow a tiny bit, but barely. I WAS SO EXCITED that there wasn't a mess I had to clean in my underwear and another pair of underwear ruined due to my period!So I went to empty it and there's a little notch on it that you hook your finger to grab, and then you have to push out to unleash it from behind your pubic bone at the same time. It does get your fingers bloody when removing it because it kinda spills out a little, but who the heck cares when it stayed in for so long without any leaks, no discomfort and no smell or seeing blood everytime I peed!! It was so fantastic that the blood on my fingers didn't bother me since my sink is right next to my toilet I could just wash it off right away!! I don't think I'd ever take it out at work or in a public bathroom due to that. So I cleaned it with soap and water and popped it back in, with again a little maneuvering and awkwardness (you have to sit down to get it in), but I got it! Then I went another 7 hours with it in on my heavy day and again no leaks, no discomfort, couldn't feel or or even tell I had my period other than the usual menstrual cramps!!!I am sooo in love with this product!! I WOULD RECCOMEND IT TO ANY GIRL WHO HAS IS NOT A VIRGIN due to the fact that it would be really hard to show her how to get it in without a plastic model of a vagina and cervix and she may have a hard time getting it in, you have to pinch it together so that you can get it in anyway. Now I'm stuck with a bunch pads I had bought right before buying this and don't think I'll be going back to them!! Lol 😆 this disc is seriously a complete game changer for me!!! I am so THRILLED, I took a chance on it and bought it. I bought 3 of them I loved them so much!!Also I can shower without seeing blood flowing out and can go swimming now with my neice and can go over her house or to my parents shore house overnight without having to worry about throwing out a tampon or pad in someone else's trash!! It is so perfect for me!! Sooo GO GREEN and try it for your yourself!!! You'll be soo glad you made the switch!! Some people on these reviews say it was hard getting out, it did make me panic a little my first time trying, but it's so easy now as long as you push out and pull with your finger at the same time!!I do not know anything about having sex with it in because I am not in a relationship with someone, but I do know you have to empty it before sex so that the blood doesn't auto dump out when it's full!! And if you do have sex with it in you can not try to force yourself to have an orgasm because when you try to force it you might push it out and it will probably get messy!!I hope this review helps someone to make their period game forever changed!! Especially if your someone like me who absolutely dreads her period every month!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From an almost 40 year old woman and first time user, GET IT! *by on Reviewed in the United States July 16, 2023* Talk about an absolute game changer. Wow, and I truly mean wow. Saalt, thank you. I bought the two pack of the regular and small cup. Given my flow is as heavy as it is I was really uncertain as to whether this was going to be my finally switching out from using tampons. I couldn't do it anymore due to the internal physical pain that the cotton fabric was causing me since I was in need of ultra tampons for the majority of my cycle. With that in mind, I was going through an ultra tampon every two-four hours depending on how much my uterus hated me that particular month. I had originally considered going with a different brand with a larger cup size for that reason.Turns out it wasn't even necessary. I've been using the large cup for twenty-four hours now and I haven't had a single issue that any of the negative reviews state. In fact, all I have to say is positive. For starters, I can go for up to about six hours before I feel like I have to empty the cup. It definitely takes some getting used to as far as insertion and removal, but once you get the hang of it, you're golden! I played cards against humanity last night with my nephew and laughed so hard I felt the cup flex a lot like it was breathing and thought I might blow it right out (which had me laughing harder and no, I didn't share that with him lol), but it stayed in place and worked perfectly.Last night was my first night using the cup and while, yes, I should have probably emptied prior to going to bed I didn't and had zero issues. We're talking TEN hours with a flow that typically uses ultra absorbency tampons (granted I was stationary), and no leaks at all. I'm totally in awe of what this product has done for me.I haven't used the small cup yet, but as for the regular you know it's there. It isn't like you insert and forget which is a good thing. Since TSS is an issue you WANT to know it's there. At first, I noticed that I felt like I needed to urinate after it was in, but after a few hours of wear that feeling stopped. The sensation takes a little bit to get used to, but it doesn't have that abrasive friction and constant irritation that I was getting from tampons. Nobody needs that. Why do we still make them?If you're having trouble with insertion and removal there's plenty of helpful videos on YouTube and QandA's on Google. If you're new to the cup or considering, this is worth the investment. I'm twenty-four hours in and refuse to go back to tampons. Saalt makes a wonderful product and I'll be singing their praises to whomever is willing to listen. Do yourself a favor and get it. It's worth the investment and money you'll save as well as cutting back on unnecessary pain associated with tampon use.Update: I switched to the small cup later on in the evening of day two. It was harder to insert the cup and as it turns out, I wasn't bleeding as heavy (keep this in mind for later). Easier time overall using the small cup and also didn't have leaking issues.Emptied each time I went to the bathroom so say... Every four to six hours or so. I was about 60 hours or so into my cycle or about two and a half days when I noticed there wasn't really anything to empty. I figured hey, probably due to gravity and the fact that I had been lying down using a heating pad (again, back problems *cough, cough, old*) and nothing really moved down that way. I even wiped and noticed nothing. Ok, weird. It happens. Roughly another six or more hours later and I use the bathroom again (it's hot as hell, I'm drinking a lot of water, don't judge me) and I reach in, break the suction and go to empty... Nothing. There's nothing at all to empty. Confused now, and assuming what I was hoping to be true had just happened, I went on the internet and discovered a few blerbs on Google and then came across an entire article by Vice. There's an entire website dedicated to cups called Put A Cup In It. I'm stating these things because there's a physical effect to using a cup. Not only did I just have the least painful period of my life, but I also just had the shortest. I just had a period that lasted about two and a half days. This happens to 53% of women that switch to using the cup. It's a completely understudied phenomenon and it's a shame it isn't more widely known for all of woman kind. It takes getting used to, but it's so worth it. If I had known I'd be in less pain every month and bleed for WAY fewer days I would have switch such a long time ago. Make the switch and liberate yourself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First Time Disc User *by on Reviewed in the United States December 19, 2025* To start off, I have never used a disc before this one and I purchased the saalt regular sized disc as I have a really high cervix. I took two quizzes online prior to settling on this disc. I took the put a cup in it quiz and the period nirvana quiz. The put a cup in it quiz is the one that recommended me to use this disc. I didn’t listen to the other quiz because it seemed biased and I wanted to try this one because of the soft silicone which I found less intimidating. Also the basin of this seemed the softest. (And it is, it’s so comfortable)I was very intimidated by discs because they sit in an entirely different location than menstrual cups do. However, I was drawn to this because of how much more discs hold than cups do. I have previous experience with cups. Let me tell you, this disc changed my life. The first time I tried placing it, it went horribly and it felt weird and uncomfy. I remember it pressing on my bladder.I immediately took it off and tried again. I changed my approach to guide it further in than I originally did and it worked. I just feel around to make sure it’s properly tucked in behind my pubic bone and that it’s around my whole cervix. I have a very VERY heavy flow on the first 3 days of my period and this handled it like a pro. I slept comfortably at night, I changed it every 5 hours during the day. On day 4-6 I literally only change it every 12 hours because it doesn’t get full.Autodumping and leaks: This disc was a perfect fit for me so I had zero issues with leaks. I only leaked a bit once but it was because I placed the disc in wrong (you need to place it deeper than you think). It does auto dump once it’s full but ONLY when you use the restroom. There was no autodumping during sneezes/ coughs/ laughing. And it shouldn’t leak during regular movement unless it’s a wrong fit or placement. When it auto dumps I never have to place it back or anything either, it remains in place. Tmi but you can also just do a kegel after it auto dumps once you stand and you’re good. You don’t have to go around feeling it to put it back after using the bathroom. I heard people say to do this but it wasn’t needed for me, just do a kegel. I have strong pelvic muscles and it works for me.Placement and removal: Placement was very easy, I have placed it standing up in the shower with a leg up and sitting down on the toilet. Both work but sitting down on the toilet was the easiest. Removal was easy, I only struggled once because I have an extremely high cervix. Removal can be difficult if you aren’t used to using your pelvic muscles or accustomed to your body’s anatomy. You simply bear down with your pelvic muscles and reach for the rim and slowly wiggle it out. I remove it over the toilet and slowly wiggle it out to avoid causing a mess. I haven’t caused a single spill or mess while removing as a first time user. It’s painless and I use extra small tampons for reference because I literally cannot use bigger tampons they always hurt. Because of the soft silicone material this never causes friction and it feels very comfortable to insert and remove.My overall user experience: I use this disc with period underwear just in case it ever leaks or the leftover after it autodumps from using the bathroom. And there is absolutely no need. The disc handles everything for me and I’ve started to wear just normal underwear when I have the disc because of how much trust I have in it. (No pantiliner, nothing!) And the best part is I don’t have to use pads or tampons anymore! This is amazing but I suggest doing your research to have less of a learning curve. I researched everything about discs and how to use them and I recommend getting comfortable with your personal anatomy because it will make this ten times easier. ## Frequently Bought Together - Saalt Soft Menstrual Cup – Reusable Period Cup – Made for Comfortable, Leak-Free Protection Up to 12 Hours – BPA & Latex Free – Includes Cup & Carry Bag (Regular Grey/Small Desert Blush) - Saalt Menstrual Cup Wash - Made in USA - Premium Formula for Silicone Menstrual Cups (4 oz) - Saalt Compact Sanitizer - Easy Sanitization for Menstrual Cup Or Menstrual Disc - Microwavable - Reusable - Good for Camping, Dorms, or Office --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/193601463-saalt-soft-menstrual-cup-reusable-period-cup-with-carry-bag](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/193601463-saalt-soft-menstrual-cup-reusable-period-cup-with-carry-bag) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
