How to prevent spotting while wearing a menstrual cupUpdated a year ago

Wipe or rinse your labia after insertion to prevent spotting. Spotting can be caused by blood left in the vagina after insertion.

You can supplement your cup with a pad, liner, or period underwear while you are learning to use it or on your heaviest days.
