Can I Trim The StemUpdated a year ago
Say no to uncomfortable stems! The stem on your Saalt Menstrual Cup is designed to be soft and comfortable so you can keep it to help locate the cup. Depending on how you wear your cup, you may decide to trim off part or all of the stem. If you do, trim on one of the indentations. Never trim the stem while your cup is inserted. Make sure you know the desired length before trimming. Take care not to cut or scratch any part of the cup when trimming to avoid unwanted tearing of the cup. We recommend using your cup with the stem intact for at least one full period before choosing whether or not to trim your stem. Your cervix changes position throughout your cycle and you may find that having the stem is helpful to locate the cup later during your period.
