{"id":315,"count":4,"description":"<h2>Why buy menstrual cups and discs at n\u00fcshu?<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At <\/span><b>n\u00fcshu<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> we believe every body is unique, which is why we offer <\/span><b>menstrual cups and discs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that adapt to you\u2014not the other way around. Our products are designed to offer a <\/span><b>comfortable, safe, and sustainable experience<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, made with <\/span><b>medical-grade materials<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, free from toxins and respectful of your body and the planet.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We work with trusted brands and carefully select each model to cover different needs: from <\/span><b>small cups<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for young people or those with a low cervix, to <\/span><b>reusable menstrual discs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that allow for sexual intercourse during your period.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, all our products at n\u00fcshu are <\/span><b>reusable, vegan, and recommended by health professionals<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. If you're looking for a sustainable alternative to disposable tampons and pads, you can combine your cup or disc with our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_panties\/\"><b>menstrual underwear<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_pads\/\"><b>cloth pads<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, ideal for the first days or as extra protection at night.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you have any questions, feel free to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/contacte\/\"><b>contact<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> me.<\/span>\r\n<h2>Differences between menstrual cups<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At n\u00fcshu, we work with two menstrual cup models from the brand Eureka!, both of <\/span><b>medical-grade quality, reusable, and designed to adapt to different lifestyles<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. While they share the same anatomical base, there are key differences between them that can help you decide which one is best for you.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/?post_type=product&amp;p=265072\"><b>Eureka! Cup Classic<\/b><\/a><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">daily use, medium to heavy flow. Perfect for those who have already used a menstrual cup or prefer a model<\/span><b> without additional mechanisms. It's the softest cup on the market, and you'll feel very comfortable wearing it.<\/b>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/product\/eureka-cup-eco\/\"><b>Eureka! CUP (with emptying tube)<\/b><\/a><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">allows you to <\/span><b>empty the cup without removing it from your body.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> It\u2019s a practical choice if you spend long hours away from home, don\u2019t have access to a nearby sink, travel often, or want more autonomy during your period.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Both models are available at n\u00fcshu and you can combine them with our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_panties\/\"><b>menstrual underwear<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or <\/span><b>reusable liners<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> if you're just starting or prefer extra protection.<\/span>\r\n<h2>What is a menstrual disc and how does it work?<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A <\/span><b>menstrual disc<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is a reusable option to collect menstrual blood. It is placed higher than the cup, right at the base of the cervix. It's <\/span><b>as thin as a flower petal, flexible, and doesn\u2019t create suction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which makes it more comfortable for many people. It has a reinforced rim to prevent leaks.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of its advantages is that it <\/span><b>can be worn during sex<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, without discomfort. Also available at n\u00fcshu as an <\/span><b>alternative to menstrual cups<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span>\r\n<h2>What\u2019s the difference between menstrual cups and discs?<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although both collect menstrual blood without absorbing it, <\/span><b>cups and discs work differently<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span><b>menstrual cup<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> sits low in the vaginal canal and <\/span><b>creates a slight suction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which helps prevent leaks.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span><b>menstrual disc<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> sits deeper and <\/span><b>does not create suction<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, making it ideal for those with sensitivity, a weakened pelvic floor, or who want more freedom.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, menstrual discs <\/span><b>can be worn during sex<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, something not possible with menstrual cups.<\/span>\r\n<h2>Benefits of using a menstrual cup or disc instead of pads and tampons<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you're looking for a <\/span><b>healthier, more sustainable and cost-effective alternative<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to disposable products, menstrual cups and discs can be a great choice.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And if you prefer to combine options, at n\u00fcshu you'll also find <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_pads\/\"><b>reusable cloth pads<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_panties\/\"><b>menstrual underwear<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> as a complement or occasional alternative.<\/span>\r\n<h2>How to clean and store your menstrual cup properly?<\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To ensure your menstrual cup lasts for years and remains 100% safe, it's important to clean and store it properly:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>During your cycle<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, rinse it with water each time you empty it. If needed, use an unscented, neutral soap.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>After your period ends<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, sterilize it by boiling in water for 3\u20135 minutes.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Always store it in a dry, ventilated place<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, like a cotton pouch (avoid airtight containers).<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This same care applies to <\/span><b>reusable menstrual discs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, which are also available at n\u00fcshu. Proper care extends their lifespan and supports your menstrual health sustainably.<\/span>\r\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about menstrual cups and discs<\/h2>\r\n<h3>What size menstrual cup do I need?<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It depends on your flow, age, whether you\u2019ve had vaginal births, and your cervix height. At n\u00fcshu, we offer models designed to adapt to different bodies and life stages.<\/span>\r\n<h3>Is it normal for the cup to hurt when inserting it?<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It shouldn't hurt. If it does, it might not be the right size or you may need more practice inserting it. Use a water-based lubricant if needed and try different positions.<\/span>\r\n<h3>Can I sleep with a menstrual cup or disc in?<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It's not advisable to wear it for more than 8\u201312 hours at a time. So we <\/span><b>recommend taking a break from the cup at night<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and using another <\/span><b>external collection method<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_panties\/\"><b>menstrual underwear<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual_pads\/\"><b>cloth pads for night use<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span>\r\n<h3>How many hours can I wear a menstrual cup?<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Between 8 and 12 hours, depending on your flow. On heavier days, it's best to empty it more frequently. Discs can also be worn for several hours without issues.<\/span>\r\n<h3>When is it not recommended to use a menstrual cup?<\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In cases of active vaginal infections, after certain gynecological procedures, or if you have a medical contraindication. Also not recommended in situations like a weakened pelvic floor, postpartum, vaginismus, vaginal pain, or after sexual trauma. If in doubt, consult your trusted health professional.<\/span>","link":"https:\/\/www.nushu.cat\/en\/products\/menstrual-hygiene-sustainable\/menstrual-cup-and-sponges\/","name":"Menstrual Cups and Discs","slug":"menstrual-cup-and-sponges","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":286,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Copes i discos menstruals - n\u00fcshu<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Copes i discos menstruals c\u00f2modes, segurs i sense t\u00f2xics.
