Frequently Asked Questions
How is this cup with catching everything and not leaking?
The DOT cup has a firm rim in addition to a super soft and flexible body. This means that it's comfortable, but also creates a perfect suction seal. If properly inserted leaks are a non-issue. From a capacity standpoint the DOT cup has 3x the volume of a super tampon, so even during your heaviest flow there will be less trips to the bathroom.
Some cups are impossible to get out, is DOT like that?
Nope! We've heard horror stories of suction like a giant squid, and women having to go to emergency clinics in tears - but breathe easy! The #1 secret to comfortably removing DOT (and all cups) is pinching the base of the cup to release suction before AND while you pull it out. The stem is there to bring the cup down from high inside, but should not be used to actually remove. Firmly grip the base of the cup to release the suction seal as you pull down and out.
Why the buy-one give-one model?
In the developing world there is tons of stigma around women on their periods. With little access to menstrual hygiene products it is common for girls who are on their period to be forced out of school. Missing an average of 60 days each year puts them at a massive disadvantage. The DOT cup allows young women to continue living their lives as normal despite the stigma around menstruation. Our hope is to focus on this small subset of women's health to make a difference for girls who want to follow their dreams.
Features
- WILL THIS THING FIT ME? We get it, every body is different. We designed the Dot Cup specifically to be ‘one size fits MOST.’ If you have a low cervix you can trim the stem, even going so far as to cut it completely off. Consider the Dot Cup a compromise that fits between most brands’ size 1 and size 2 - a size Medium. We have happy customers that range all the way from virgin to multiple vaginal childbirths.
- OK, BUT IS IT COMFORTABLE? Yes! The Dot Cup was designed with comfort in mind, made with smooth, medical-grade silicone and featuring a soft cup body with a firm cup rim for easy “popping open” and minimal leaks. We’re not going to name any names, but some of our biggest fans used other brands first and switched for comfort reasons. You can wear a Dot Cup for up to 12 hours. We don’t recommend trying that with a tampon.
- IT’S BLACK because most clear and light colored menstrual cups stain and become discolored over time. The whole point is to be able to use this thing for years, so let’s keep it looking fresh.
- GOOD FOR YOU: spending money on tampons adds up. Save that (roughly $150/year) and treat yourself. GOOD FOR THE PLANET: reusing the same Dot Cup for years beats throwing away thousands of paper products that go on to sit in landfills for ages to come. GOOD FOR SOMEONE ELSE: For every Dot Cup we sell, we give one to a person without access to menstrual products.
- MADE IN THE USA in an ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certified facility using 100% medical-grade silicone and pigment. We don’t do returns, but we get that every penny counts, so if you’re not satisfied with your Dot Cup experience just hit us up for a refund. Dot Cup is FEMALE OWNED AND OPERATED.
