DO NOT STORE THE CUP IN AN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER.
CAUTION: WAIT UNTIL THE CUP HAS COOLED BEFORE INSERTING INTO YOUR BODY.
Do not use: bleach, antimicrobial soaps, or sanitizers to clean the cup as these may damage the cup. Some mild soaps are OK, but we suggest plain water or a branded cup wash. (See "Tips for Use" section on FAQs & Tips page.)
1. Wash hands with soap and water.
2. Rinse the cup with clean water.
3. Hold the cup so you can see the Kind Cup logo. Place index finger on the lower half of the shorter, front wall of cup and press to collapse. Then press side walls together to fold cup.
4. Relax pelvic muscles. Use your other hand to gently move your labia aside.
5. Point cup up and angled towards your backbone as you insert it into your vagina. Keep the collapsed fold facing up, and Kind Cup logo on the bottom.
6. Once inserted, release the fold so that the cup will open and form a seal against your vaginal wall. Hold base of cup, bear down with your pelvic muscles, then with your thumb and index finger still holding the base of the cup, push the cup up a little, down a little, to feel that it has securely created a suction seal.
7. Feel the base of the cup to make sure it opened fully and that front of cup faces forward. If cup is not facing the proper direction, it may cause discomfort. Cup must be placed below your cervix and above your pubic bone to avoid leaks and possible discomfort.
The cup must be emptied and cleaned AT LEAST every 12 hours/twice per day.

1. Wash hands with soap and water.
2. Relax pelvic muscles. Locate removal stem or bulb and gently pull down with slight side-to-side motion until the base of the cup is in reach.
3. To break the seal, gently press the front of the base with your thumb, pinching the cup base between your thumb and index finger. Then continue to pull the cup down and out.
4. Empty contents. Wash with cold water first to minimize discoloration, or wipe clean, then reinsert if needed.
