Using a menstrual cup or disc while traveling can be intimidating, but we’re here to help! Whether you’re on a plane, in an airport bathroom, or at a relative’s house, we have tips to make it stress-free.

No Sink, No Problem:

If you find yourself in a stall without a sink, our Travel Kit is a lifesaver. It includes a squeeze bottle you can fill with water to rinse your menstrual disc or cup. After emptying your cup into the toilet, use the squeeze bottle to spray and clean it. Then, store it in the compact sanitizer. Don’t forget to use the wet bag for your accessories to keep them contained until you can properly clean and dry them.


Water-Free Cleaning:

In a pinch, some wipes can be used for a quick clean. After emptying your cup, wipe it down with a couple of wipes, which are safe for both silicone and skin, like our brand of wipes. They’re also biodegradable and flushable, making them ideal for tight spaces like airplane bathrooms.


Subtle Sanitizing:

If your period ends while traveling, or if your cup needs extra cleaning, don’t worry! Bring alcohol wipes to sanitize your cup or use your compact sanitizer if you have access to a microwave or boiling water. Simply submerge your cup in boiled water for three minutes.


Extra Peace of Mind:

Pair your cup or disc with period underwear for added protection against leaks during travel. These comfortable, leakproof panties are perfect for long trips when bathroom access is limited, letting you travel confidently.


With these tips, you can focus on enjoying your holiday season without period-related stress!
