We don’t talk much about the behind the scenes giving programmes we do at Hello Cup so we thought we should tell you about one we’ve have started recently in Kenya.
It’s one of the first questions we get asked - ‘what size menstrual cup is best for me?’ Like on the outside, we’re all different on the inside too and no vagina is created equal - which kinda means there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to what size might fit you best.
Vaginal cup, period cup, menstrual cup, fannie cup! Whatever you call it, the Hello Cup is a great choice.
While working out what size you are can be tricky, the below info is a good starting point. Our Regular Hello Cups come in three sizes – XS (extra small), S/M (small/medium) and L (large or ‘lovely’).
Our specialist Low Cervix Hello Cup comes in two sizes – S/M and L.

Diameter – Regular Hello Cups
The Hello Cup comes in three sizes – XS (extra small), S/M (small/medium) and L (large or ‘lovely’).
Our XS cup is is our smallest, softest cup. It’s the perfect choice for teenagers, petite users or those who prefer a ‘mini’ tampon.
Our S/M is our ‘one size fits most’ menstrual cup. We recommend it for users under 35 – regardless of whether they have had children or not.
Our L is best for those over 35 who feel it’s a bit more roomy up there (possibly thanks to pushing out a small human or two). It’s worth noting that we find physically fit people are often best suited to the S/M regardless of age.
Diameter – Low Cervix Hello Cups
The diameter of the S/M is 41mm and the overall length (no toggle) is 43mm. It holds 21mls (to the holes). The diameter of the L is 45mm and the overall length (no toggle) is 49mm. It holds 28ml (to the holes). Drop us a line if you have any questions about sizing –hello@thehellocup.com.
Sometimes finding the best size for you can be a bit of trial and error. If you’re uncertain about what size to choose, our Hello Cup Double Boxis often a great choice. You’ll get two Hello Cups of your choice to find which one works best for you. Many find they can wear two sizes anyway and opt for a smaller sized Hello Cup on light days and a larger one on heavy days.
