Saalt Menstrual Cup - Teen

Why We Love the Saalt Teen Menstrual Cup

We like that Saalt offers a smaller menstrual cup without assuming that everyone needs the same size. The Teen Cup provides a narrower option for people who find standard cups too wide or prefer something more compact.

Its smaller dimensions may make insertion and removal more approachable, particularly if you are new to menstrual cups. We also like that it is not limited to teenagers. Adults who prefer a smaller diameter may find it worth considering too.

With a 15 ml capacity, it is important to consider how often you may need to empty it, particularly on heavier days. As with any menstrual cup, finding the right fit depends on your anatomy, cervix height, flow and personal comfort.

• Smaller menstrual cup designed with input from teenagers.
• 100% medical-grade silicone.
• 38 mm diameter for a narrower fit.
• 15 ml capacity measured to the rim.
• 65 mm total length, including the 20 mm stem.
• Suitable for light to moderate menstrual flow, depending on how frequently you empty it.
• BPA-free and latex-free.
• Reusable alternative to disposable period products.
• Can be worn for up to 12 hours.
• Made in the USA.
• Supplied with a carry bag and printed instructions.

This Product May Suit You If…

• You are trying a menstrual cup for the first time and prefer a smaller design.
• You are a teenager looking for a menstrual cup with more compact dimensions.
• You are an adult who finds larger menstrual cups uncomfortable or difficult to insert.
• You have a light to moderate flow and are comfortable with a smaller 15 ml capacity.
• You prefer a narrower cup with a 38 mm diameter.
• You have a lower cervix and the cup's dimensions suit your available vaginal space.
• You want reusable period protection for everyday activities, exercise, swimming or overnight use.

Consider Another Option If…

• You have a heavy flow and would prefer a larger capacity between emptying.
• You need more than 15 ml of menstrual fluid capacity.
• You have a particularly low cervix and need a shorter cup body.
• You have a high cervix and find shorter cups difficult to reach for removal.
• You experience pressure or discomfort with traditional bell-shaped cups and would prefer a different shape or firmness.
• You have limited hand dexterity and prefer a cup with a loop or ring-style removal aid.

The Saalt Teen Cup is the smallest option in Saalt's standard menstrual cup range. Although it was developed with younger users in mind, age alone does not determine which menstrual cup will fit comfortably.

Consider your cervix height, preferred cup diameter, menstrual flow and the available vaginal space when choosing a cup.

The 45 mm body and 20 mm stem make up the 65 mm total length. Remember to consider the body length when assessing how much space you have available and the total length when considering removal and accessibility.

The 15 ml capacity is measured to the rim rather than the air holes. Depending on your flow, you may need to empty the cup more frequently than you would a larger-capacity option.

Understanding the Teen Size

The Teen Cup may be a useful option if you prefer a narrower menstrual cup or find standard sizes too wide. Its compact design may also be worth considering if you have a lower cervix, provided the 45 mm body length is suitable for your anatomy.

Being labelled a Teen Cup does not mean it is only suitable for teenagers. Adults can also prefer smaller menstrual cups, particularly if they find wider designs uncomfortable.

The Saalt Teen Cup is made from 100% medical-grade silicone.

• Made from 100% medical-grade silicone.

Your Saalt Teen Cup package includes:

• One Saalt Teen Menstrual Cup in Wild Rose Pink.
• One cotton carry bag for storage.
• Printed instructions to help you get started.

1. Wash your hands and clean or sanitise the cup according to Saalt's instructions before first use.
2. Fold the cup using a fold that creates a comfortable insertion point.
3. Gently insert the folded cup towards your tailbone.
4. Allow the cup to open inside the vaginal canal and check that it has formed a seal.
5. Wear for up to 12 hours, emptying sooner when needed according to your flow.
6. To remove, wash your hands, relax your pelvic floor and gently pinch the base to release the seal.
7. Ease the cup out carefully, empty it, clean it and reinsert as needed.

Learning to fold, position and remove a menstrual cup can take practice. A smaller cup may make some steps easier, but individual experiences vary.

Proper cleaning helps keep your menstrual cup in good condition.

Before first use and between periods

Sanitise your Saalt Teen Cup according to the manufacturer's instructions before using it for the first time and between menstrual cycles. Follow Saalt's recommended cleaning and sanitising methods.

During your period

Empty and clean the cup at least every 12 hours or sooner according to your flow.

Saalt recommends rinsing with cold water first to help minimise staining, followed by washing with warm water and a suitable mild, fragrance-free and oil-free cleanser that rinses away completely.

Storage

Allow the cup to dry fully before storing it in its cotton carry bag. Avoid storing it while damp or in an airtight container.

Replacement

Inspect your cup regularly for signs of deterioration or damage. Follow Saalt's current replacement guidance if you notice changes to the silicone or the cup's condition.

Always read and follow the instructions supplied with your Saalt Teen Cup.

• Do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended maximum wear time of 12 hours.
• Always release the cup's seal before removal. Avoid pulling the cup out by its stem alone.
• If you use an IUD, seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional about menstrual cup use and take care to release the seal fully before removal.
• If you have recently given birth, undergone pelvic surgery or have a relevant gynaecological condition, seek professional advice before using a menstrual cup.
• Stop using the cup and seek medical advice if you experience persistent pain, discomfort or irritation.
