OVY PERIOD SCHOOL

You've seen the cup. Now get to know your body.

A cup comes with a lot of questions — and not nearly enough straight answers. This is where we change that: no jargon, no shame, just what's really going on and what actually helps.

LET'S TALK ABOUT IT

Will a cup affect your virginity? No — and here's why.

It's the question we hear most, especially from teens and first-timers. So here's the honest, gynaecologist-checked truth — gently, and without the myths.

A cup can't “take” your virginity. There's no wall down there waiting to break.

Virginity is a personal idea — not a medical state an object can change. What's actually near the opening is a soft, stretchy ring of tissue called the hymen, with a natural gap your period already flows through. So let's bust the myths, one by one.

natural
opening

The hymen

a soft, elastic ring of tissue

It stretches to let things through — it doesn't "break".

MYTH“A cup will tear or break my hymen.”
TRUTH

It's soft, elastic tissue with a natural opening. It stretches to let things past — it doesn't snap.

MYTH“People can tell if you've used one.”
TRUTH

The hymen can't show whether someone's had sex. It comes in every shape — some are born with barely any.

MYTH“Only a cup stretches it.”
TRUTH

Cycling, sport, dance and tampons stretch it over the years too. Stretching isn't tearing.

MYTH“Unmarried girls and teens shouldn't.”
TRUTH

Anyone who menstruates can. Start with our softest Teen size, breathe out, wet the rim — no rush.

A gentle note: if insertion ever feels truly impossible or sharply painful even when you're relaxed, it's worth a quick chat with a doctor — very rarely a hymen has an unusually small opening, which is simple to check and has nothing to do with the cup.

FIND YOUR SIZE

Three sizes, four colours

One cup, sized to you. What matters most is how high your cervix sits — along with your flow and whether you've had a vaginal birth. It's not about your body shape, your weight or even your age (plenty of people over 30 sit happily on Medium), and a C-section doesn't change your size: your birth canal isn't stretched, so most C-section mums stay with Medium. Read the table, do the 20-second cervix check below, or let the 30-second quiz choose for you.

SIZECAPACITYCOLOURSBEST FOR
Teen (XS)16 mlPinkFirst periods & first-timers • light to average flow • before any birth • a low-to-average cervix or tighter muscles
Medium (M)25 mlPurple • RainbowThe everyday all-rounder • average flow & cervix • no vaginal birth yet — C-section mums and many over-30s included
Large (L)35 mlWhiteAfter a vaginal birth • heavier or longer days • a higher cervix or a more relaxed pelvic floor

The 20-second cervix check

Cervix height decides how a cup sits more than anything else — and it's easy to find. During your period, wash your hands and slide one finger into your vagina until you feel your cervix (it's firm and rounded, a bit like the tip of your nose). Note how far your finger went:

1st knuckle

LOW CERVIX

A shorter cup sits more comfortably. You may want to trim or remove the stem. Teen (XS) or Medium suit most.

2nd knuckle

AVERAGE CERVIX

The most common — almost any size works. Pick by age, flow and birth history using the table above.

3rd knuckle / can't reach

HIGH CERVIX

You have plenty of room — keep the full stem to help you reach the base. Medium or Large work well.

Cervix height can shift a little across your cycle, so check on a period day. Still unsure? Our 30-second quiz factors all of this in for you.
FOR TEENS & FIRST-TIMERS

A cup, the teen way — do's & don'ts

Trying a cup as a teen is completely safe and normal. Keep these simple do's and don'ts in mind and you'll be a pro within a couple of cycles.

Do

  • ✓Start at home on a lighter day, with plenty of time and zero pressure.
  • ✓Wash your hands, then wet the rim with clean water so it slides in easily.
  • ✓Use the Teen (XS) size and the punch-down fold — the easiest combo for beginners.
  • ✓Empty it at least every 12 hours, and sterilise by boiling before the first use and between periods.
  • ✓Ask a parent, older sister or the school nurse if you're unsure — it's completely normal to.

Don't

  • ✕Don't panic if it takes two or three tries — that's normal, not failure. Relax and breathe out.
  • ✕Don't pull it out by the stem alone — pinch the base first to release the seal.
  • ✕Don't share your cup with anyone, and don't leave it in longer than 12 hours.
  • ✕Don't worry about virginity — a cup has nothing to do with it.
  • ✕Don't use a cup if you have a vaginal infection — check with a doctor first.
AN HONEST COMPARISON

Cup vs pads vs tampons

Same job, three very different experiences. Here's how a cup actually stacks up — no exaggeration.

OVY CUPPADSTAMPONS
Wear timeUp to 12 hours4–6 hours4–8 hours
CapacityUp to 3x a tamponSurface only~10 ml
ReusableYes — yearsNoNo
Cost per year~₹50–60*₹2,000–3,000₹2,500–3,500
Waste per yearAlmost none~120 pads~120 + applicators
Dryness & odourCollects — neitherCan feel dampCan dry you out

Anything showing?Nothing — no stringCan be bulkyVisible string
*Cup price spread across its years of use. Disposable figures assume ~₹200–250 a month.

What you gain the day you switch

12 hours, uninterrupted

Sleep through the night, swim, run and travel without a single change.

3–5x more capacity

Holds far more than a pad or tampon — fewer bathroom trips on heavy days.

No dryness, zero odour

Silicone collects rather than absorbs, so moisture stays balanced and flow never meets air.

Saves ₹3,000–5,000/year

Versus disposables — and one cup replaces years of throwaways.

Thousands of pads diverted

Kept out of landfill over years of cup use, versus single-use.

Hypoallergenic, lower TSS risk

Latex-free silicone collects rather than absorbs — TSS risk is lower than tampons, though not zero. Empty within 12 hrs.

MADE FOR REAL LIFE IN INDIA

The honest answers, woman to woman

The questions everyone whispers about cups — answered without judgement, by people who get the Indian reality of shared bathrooms, hostels and family kitchens.

“Will it hurt to insert or wear?”

Hurt-free when you relax & fold

No — when positioned correctly, you shouldn't feel it at all. Medical-grade silicone is velvety-soft and moulds to your body. Relax your pelvic floor, wet the rim with clean water, and use the punch-down fold. If it ever feels uncomfortable, it's simply sitting too low — push it up gently. Most women feel completely confident within 1–2 cycles.

“Will it affect my virginity?”

It has nothing to do with virginity

Virginity is about a person and their choices — never a product. The hymen is a soft, stretchy rim of tissue that everyday things like cycling, sport and yoga already stretch. A cup may gently stretch it too, but it can't "take" anything. Unmarried girls and teens can use a cup safely — start with our smallest size on a light day.

“There's no sink inside the toilet...”

No private basin? Still easy

You only need to fully wash the cup about twice a day, so a quick midday change rarely needs a sink at all. Empty into the toilet, wipe with clean tissue or rinse from a small water bottle you carry in, and reinsert. Wash properly when you're home. One rule: never rinse with toilet water.

“I live in a hostel / travel a lot.”

Built for hostels, PGs & trains

Up to 12 hours of wear means you can insert in private before college and empty at night — no mid-day stall drama. One tiny cup replaces a whole month of pads in your bag. For shared kitchens, a fold-away travel steriliser or sterilising tablets mean you never need someone else's stove.

“Is it clean to reuse?”

Your own cup is very hygienic

Medical-grade silicone is non-porous, so nothing soaks in. Sterilise by boiling before your first use and between periods; during your period a rinse with mild, unscented soap is enough. The only caveat: a cup is personal — never share it with anyone else.

“Do I boil it every time?”

Boiling is start & end only

You sterilise by boiling just before a period begins and once after it ends — not at every change. Five to seven minutes in any clean pot does it (keep it from touching the base so it doesn't scorch). No private stove? A small steam steriliser or sterilising tablet works just as well.

“Is period blood impure?”

Your period is not impure

Menstrual blood is clean, healthy and completely normal — there's nothing shameful about it. A cup simply lets you handle your period with less waste, less cost and more comfort, entirely on your own terms. That's not breaking a rule; that's looking after yourself.

THE 10-YEAR MATH

One cup. Years of savings.

Disposables are a small bill every single month, for decades. A cup is a tiny fraction of that. Move the slider to see what switching could save you.

FULL TRANSPARENCY

One material. Nothing hidden.

A cup is the simplest period product there is — one moulded piece, no adhesives, no fibres, no fragrance. Here's exactly what it is, and what it never contains.

MADE OF

100% medical-grade silicone (Class VI biocompatible — the grade used in implants & baby products)

FIRMNESS

Soft–medium — gentle on the bladder, yet firm enough to pop open and seal reliably

PACKAGING

Recycled card, 100% plastic-free, plain & discreet on the outside

NO ANIMAL PRODUCTS

Made without any animal-derived materials, ever

NEVER CONTAINS

BPA, latex, phthalates, PVC, dyes, fragrance, bleach, heavy metals or animal products

POUCH

Breathable organic-cotton storage pouch — included with every cup

GENTLE ON YOU

A smooth, non-porous surface that's kind to sensitive skin and easy to keep fresh

LIFESPAN

Cared for well it can last years; for best hygiene we suggest replacing every 2–3 years

GOOD TO KNOW

Safety, do's & don'ts

A cup is very safe when used as directed. Please read this before your first use.

✓

Do empty the cup at least every 12 hours, and sterilise by boiling 5–7 minutes between cycles.

✓

Do release the seal by pinching the base before removal — never pull by the stem alone.

✓

Do store it in the breathable cotton pouch — never an airtight container.

✕

Don't use it when you're not menstruating, or as a contraceptive — it does not prevent pregnancy or STIs.

✕

Don't use during a vaginal infection — speak to a doctor first. With an IUD you can usually still use a cup: pinch the base to release the suction before removing, and keep your threads trimmed.

✕

Don't keep using a cup with tears, cracks, flaking, a sticky film or a lasting odour — replace it.

Remove the cup and seek medical help if you ever feel sudden fever, faintness, vomiting, rash or unusual pain.

KEEP IT SPOTLESS

Cleaning & care, the simple way

Caring for a cup is easier than people fear. There are really just three moments — during the day, between periods, and storage.

During your period

Empty into the toilet, rinse with water and a mild, unscented, oil-free soap, and flush the little air holes clear (fill the cup, cover the top, squeeze). Reinsert. Empty at least every 12 hours.

Between periods

Sterilise by boiling in clean water for 5–7 minutes (keep it from touching the hot base so it can't scorch). No private stove? A steam steriliser or a sterilising tablet works just as well.

Storing it

Let it dry fully, then keep it in the breathable cotton pouch it came with — never a plastic bag or airtight box, which traps moisture. Some discolouration over time is normal and harmless.

Please don't use...

  • ✕ Oil-based, fragranced or antibacterial soaps
  • ✕ Vinegar, bleach, rubbing alcohol or harsh chemicals
  • ✕ The dishwasher — and never share your cup

Replace it when...

  • You see tears, cracks or torn air holes
  • A sticky film or smell won't wash out
  • For best hygiene, every 2–3 years regardless
