Little reminder. Except our period panties super stylish, pretty and reliable, we also offer a menstrual cup made in France, in two sizes: small or medium.
This period cup, shaped like an inverted bell, acts as a reservoir holding the period blood. Placed in the vagina, it is a internal and invisible hygienic protection which is neither annoying nor painful. For wise use, we advise you to empty your cup and rinse it every 4 to 6 hours.
The menstrual cup has positioned itself, in recent years, as a healthy alternative French disposable tampons with a very dubious composition and pads. polluting and disposable.
With the menstrual cup, we use one cup every month reusable protection, washable and very practical which can last more than five years. Once full, simply empty, wash it and reintroduce it to be protected again. You can also, for your superior comfort, alternate between two cups to always have a clean cup in advance. It's up to you!
So what about the cup on vacation, at the swimming pool or at the sea? Can it be used without problems in water? Can we swim with your cup ? Linking swimming lines without contraindication? Can we swimming when you have your period ?
Swimming with your cup, everything you need to know
To avoid all leaks unfortunate, effective periodic protection is necessary during your swimming sessions. And no, once in the water, your period does not stop as if by magic. It is a Received idea.
The losses will surely slow down because of the water pressure but in no case stop abruptly. It is therefore necessary to have a menstrual protection effective if you want to avoid leaks in the water and stains on the deckchair or your towel!
The cup, an ally during your travels
Are you flying and only have a carry-on? Are you traveling light? Would you rather stuff your bag with makeup and beauty products than tampons and sanitary towels?
Good news, the menstrual cup is very small. In its little pouch, it goes incognito. Another detail for globetrotters, the tampons or simply do not exist in some countries while in others it is quite difficult to obtain should offer superior hygienic protection. Then the cup can really save you the day!
During swimming, the cup healthier than a tampon
While sanitary napkin soaks up water like a sponge and is not at all suitable for swimming; the for, it also fills with water through its small cord.
After a swimming session, your intimate flora has had time to be in contact with salt water (if you are at the sea) or well-chlorinated water (if you are at the swimming pool). The composition of the tampon also causes intimate dryness et irritations.
On the contrary, the menstrual cup completely blocks the water. Our Loulou menstrual cups have a clean and ethical composition. the medical silicone and the dyes used are free from harmful chemical components.
So, by wearing our cup, there is no risk to your health. When you come back from the beach or the swimming pool, simply take the time to wash your hands, remove your cup, empty it, clean it but also carry out a personal hygiene with your usual hygiene products.
It is always possible to empty your cup during the day. Just remember to take a bottle of water to rinse it. sterilization of your cup is not essential, it can wait until the end of your period.
The cup, essential for heavy flows
If it is quite possible to swim without protection when you experience small losses or to wear a our period swimsuit when we know a light or medium flow, it is immediately more complicated for the heavy flows !
The menstrual cup is therefore the best choice. She can hold back big blood loss without leakage. A real bargain for some women experiencing particularly heavy periods.
The feedback on the cup are unanimous. Many are seduced by the internal and invisible side. Once well unfolded against the walls of the vagina, the cup follows the shape of your body and adapts. You don't feel it. Entirely free of your movements, you move, swim, practice your sport in complete freedom and without fear.
As you will have understood, thanks to the Loulou cup, we strongly wanted to encourage all women to dare. To dare bathe during their period, dare to enjoy, dare to move, dare to swim in complete freedom and without stress! Because there is enough of stressing about your period and fearing a leak or a stain!
