What is Softcup?
The Softcup™ is a unique, proven advancement in period protection. With the Softcup™, women can now live life during their periods in freedom instead of being restricted by strings and wings!
Don't you agree it's about time we women had a period solution designed for our lifestyles today? Our lives are certainly different than those of women in 1936 when the tampon was first introduced!
What makes Softcup so uniquely different from other period protection options?
Safety, Comfort and Peace of Mind....during ALL activities
Sports! Sleep! Sex! Swimming! Spotting!
The Softcup has "marathon capacity"
It holds at least twice as much menstrual fluid as a tampon, allowing some women to go at least twice as long between changes on heavy flow days. On a light day, most women find they can wear one Softcup™ the entire day without changing or risk of leakage. Athletes rave about how the Softcup™ carries them through a long marathon or triathlon. Travelers don't leave home without it!
The Softcup is "body-friendly and very safe."
Safety is so important when it comes to taking care of your reproductive system. For added peace of mind, you should know that the Softcup™ has had abso-lutely no reported incidence of Toxic Shock Syndrome in over 10 years and 100 million cups!
Our commitment to safety: The Softcup™ is made entirely of hypoallergenic, non-toxic, non-irritating, non-absorbent materials that have been used for more than 20 years in the health care profession. Cleared by the FDA, it has under-gone extensive laboratory and human clinical testing. And, the Softcup™ has NO LATEX, which is good news for all women out there with latex sensitivities!
The Softcup™ also does not leave behind residual fibers, as tampons do, which can cause dryness, irritation which can lead to infection, and leave behind other residues from the cotton cultivation and tampon/pad manufacturing processes such as pesticides and bleach.
The Softcup is "life friendly."

With Softcup™, you don't have to change your routine just because you are on your period. The Softcup can be worn during all types of physical activity and because it is worn entirely internally, it's so discreet that you can wear anything (including swimsuits) without revealing any trace of your period protection!
The Softcup "loves making love!"
Wearing Softcup™ during your period, you and your partner can enjoy "clean sex"and neither of you will even feel it's there! (Note: the Softcup™ is NOT a contraceptive!)
The Softcup “lets you sleep at night”
Especially during heavier flow days, traditional menstrual protection products don’t always last through a whole night, meaning you have to wake up to change in the middle of the night. We know how precious and important a good night’s sleep is. The Softcup™ gives you a longer wear-time (up to 12 hours), so you can rest assured that
The Softcup "keeps you fresh."
Because Softcup™ holds menstrual fluid entirely internally, it can help eliminate dampness and reduce odor caused when even small amounts of menstrual fluid leak and are exposed to air, which even tampons can't avoid.
The Softcup “solves a problem”
Softcup™ gives women who experience menstrual spotting a solution that can’t be found anywhere else. Many women going through perimenopause, which can last anywhere from 2 - 8 years, often suffer from irregular menstrual bleed-ing or “spotting.” Other hormonal birth control methods such as the pill, Lybrel, Depoprovera and hormonal IUD’s can cause spotting as well. In addition to be-ing irregular and unpredictable, it can occur over a period of several weeks out of the month and is usually very disruptive to a woman’s daily routine. Because such a small amount of fluid is secreted during spotting and the dangers of leav-ing tampons in for too long, frequent changing of tampons will cause vaginal dryness and can be extremely irritating and painful to vaginal tissue. ...And we don’t need to list all the inconveniences of wearing a pad at all times to avoid potential spotting.
The Softcup™ is a “life saver” for women experiencing these problems. We know because we hear from women time and time again that it has changed their lives. Since it can be worn for 12 hours, you can put it in in the morning, forget about it all day, and take it out at night. What could be more convenient?
