• With washed hands, fold the cup in half, and then in half again.
• Guide the folded end into the vagina past the pubic bone and then allow to pop open fully.

• NOT to be used during post-natal bleeding due to the vagina being inflamed from childbirth.
• You can also use reusable menstrual cloths as a backup for heavy flow days.

which size to choose:

• The Lunette is available in two sizes, most woman can use either size, but one may be more comfortable than the other. 
• As a general rule, the size 2 is best for a heavier flow, the size 1 for a lighter flow.
• Muscles can lose elasticity with age, and unless you are very active at strengthening your core muscles (through activities such as yoga or pilates), the size 2 cup a better choice for most adult women.
• If you have ever been pregnant, due to hormonal changes the size 2 is also recommended.
• The size 1 Lunette may suit you depending on the position of your cervix. With a thoroughly washed finger you can try if you can reach your cervix during menstruation. If your cervix sits very low, it is better to choose the smaller Lunette.
• Image shows size 2, size one looks very similar with a slightly longer tab and shorter cup.
