Menstrual sponges 6-7cm - 3 pcs.

These menstrual sponges are a reusable alternative to tampons. A menstrual sponge, just like a tampon, allows you to continue doing what you want during your period.

• The menstrual sponges are ergonomic and conform to your body, preventing leakage.
• They're reusable. You can easily rinse them out and they're also machine washable. With three in the pack, you can keep them in a variety of sizes.
• Because there is no string attached to the sponge, it is completely invisible, even if you go swimming or to the sauna for a day.

Product specifications Menstrual sponges 6-7cm - 3 pcs.

Insert:

Before inserting, wash your hands and rinse thoroughly. Make sure there's no soap residue. Remove the sponge from its packaging. If the sponge is dry, you can add some water or a neutral lubricant (water-based) to it. This will make the sponge easier to insert. Be sure to squeeze the sponge out first, otherwise it will already be full.

Take the sponge between your thumb and index finger and squeeze it together. If the sponge has a concave and a convex side, keep the concave side facing up. This side will touch your cervix.

With your free hand, hold your labia open and insert the sponge. Push the sponge back into the vagina with your index finger, ensuring the sponge fits snugly against your cervix.

Insertion is easiest when standing and raising one leg, for example, on a chair.

How often you need to replace the sponge depends on your period. Never leave a sponge in for longer than four hours (this can cause infection!) and preferably change it after each sexual encounter.

To delete:

Wash your hands thoroughly again before removing.

Adopt a relaxed position, squatting is often easiest.

Using your thumb and index finger, you can now grasp the sponge and pull it out of the vagina. If this doesn't work, you can gently push the sponge out. If you can't remove the sponge, consult a doctor.

Always check that the previous (or last) sponge has been removed, even before going to bed. Don't throw a used sponge down the toilet, as this can cause blockages.

A sponge doesn't protect against pregnancy and STIs. Therefore, it's important to always use a contraceptive with a sponge.
