Iriscup

Iriscup brings together everything you need to experience your period differently: menstrual cups, absorbent panties, kinesiology tape, and sterilization accessories designed for everyday use.

How does the menstrual cup work?

The menstrual cup is a small, flexible collector made of medical-grade food-safe silicone that is inserted into the vagina to collect menstrual flow rather than absorb it. Folded in half or into a C-shape, it unfolds to form a leak-proof seal against the vaginal walls. Depending on the size chosen, it can be worn for up to 12 hours without leaking, then rinsed and reinserted. A single well-maintained cup can last for 5 to 10 years, representing an estimated saving of several hundred euros over that period.

Regarding hygiene, sterilization between each cycle is essential: that's where Iriscup's microwave sterilization bags come in, allowing you to disinfect the cup in minutes without having to boil water. The tourmaline kinesiology tape completes the offering by acting on abdominal muscle tension to alleviate cramps, without medication.

The different types of Iriscup products

• Menstrual cup: available in size S (light to medium flow, under 25 or after a C-section) and size L (heavy flow or after a vaginal birth), in soft pink silicone.
• Menstrual panties: washable absorbent underwear that replaces or complements the cup, ideal for nighttime or as backup protection.
• Microwave sterilization bags: reusable pouches to sterilize the cup in 3 minutes flat, sold individually or in packs of 5.
• Tourmaline kinesiology tape: elastic adhesive patch applied to the lower abdomen to reduce menstrual pain through proprioceptive stimulation, without chemical substances.

How to choose your Iriscup menstrual protection

• Cup size: opt for size S if you are under 25 or have a moderate flow; size L is recommended after a vaginal birth or for heavy flow.
• Activity level: the cup is perfect for sports, swimming, and long days; menstrual panties are preferable for the night or transition days.
• Sensitivity to pain: if cramps are your main concern, the tourmaline kinesiology tape can be used alone or in addition to your usual protection.
• Maintenance frequency: plan for one sterilization bag per cycle; the 5-pack is economical if you are sharing usage with several people in the household.
• Overall cycle ecosystem: combining a cup, panties, and pain-relief tape offers comprehensive coverage for both flow and comfort. For other intimate care products, discover our Wellness section.
