The C cup - too soft for me
The C cup was so promising being the smallest cup I could find for a low cervix. However it’s far too soft for me personally, I’m not new to cups and it just won’t open - I’ve tried different folds, running under cold water before insertion.The cup is otherwise great quality and Libby cup offer great customer service, they fixed an issue I mentioned in a previous review. So I still recommend Libby cup they’re a great company.

Cup is good, bag was mouldy
Just received this cup, looks cute and lovely.But the pouch is mouldy with black spots on. No smells though. Such a shame!I'll update the cup review once my cycle finishes.

Try it!
The Libby Cup has been both a revelation and a liberation! Since recovering from a re-balance of my hormones after years of hormonal contraception from a young age, my periods had become long, extremely heavy and cripplingly painful. Pair that with the general shame and lack of awareness around periods and I, like many others, built up so much negativity around my bleed. In an attempt to be eco-friendly I opted for another branded menstrual cup some years ago and even though this enabled me to connect more with this process (the sight of all that blood was something to behold!), I was still holding onto so much resistance due to the discomfort the cup caused me. Especially during a time when your body is already super sensitive. I was about to give up on cups altogether but I’m grateful to say the Libby cup found me just in time! It’s super soft, without compromising on its performance to hold in liquid, which paired with the clever textured base for added grip, makes this the easiest to use and most pain-free cup ever. This is a serious game-changer for me, as my heavy bleed on day 2 and 3 of my cycle means I have to take out and clean my cup fairly often. The constant taking out/putting back in of the older, harder silicone models caused such discomfort and an ache that could last for days after the heavy bleeding stopped. It was so disheartening and confirmation of how much a pain periods can be! Now? I am finally comfortable enough to enjoy all of the serious magic that can be gleaned from loving and connecting to your cycle. These cups come in such great sizes too.. The big cup is big! But still easy enough to insert once you get the hang of it. It really makes a difference for someone like me to not have to change it quite so frequently. On my heaviest days, I pair the cup with a re-usable pad for extra security if I’m out and about and once the flow dies down I switch to my SECOND Libby Cup in it’s smallest size. This cup is such a dream!!! Finally women have an option to ditch the over-kill of an enormous cup on the days when they require something much lighter. I can imagine this would be a great option for those trying a cup for the first time too. It’s so easy to use and super cute. Love the little droplet design also, all round just so much care and attention has gone into this product. Have recommended it to all my friends!

Fantastic!
I tried a menstrual cup about 10 years ago and hated it! Decided to try again - in the interests of the environment and saving money - and did lots of research before settling on the Libby Cup. As someone with small hands and a high cervix, the extra long tail on this one was the main selling feature and it hasn't disappointed - unlike the first one I tried, I've never had a problem getting the Libby Cup out. I also love the fact that it's a small business, owned by a woman, and the cups are manufactured in Britain & all the packaging is recyclable. Experienced a few leaks on the heaviest day of my first cycle - but they were definitely user error (I was experimenting with different folds & also hadn't worked out how often to change it) and nothing compared to the leaks I usually get with tampons on the heaviest day. And most importantly - no leaks at night!! Normally I would need a super tampon AND a night-time pad and I would still wake up soaked through my PJs and the bedsheets, but with the Libby Cup I was completely dry and didn't even use a pad for security!! Two cycles in and I'm loving not seeing the trash filled up with used tampons, pads & plastic wrapping. There's also zero smell. Now to enjoy the ££ savings!

Brilliant
Getting a cup is a game changer!I have been meaning to buy a cup for a while, mainly to save money but have been put off the idea of having to learn how to try a new thing. I have heard horror stories about getting the cup stuck and it being uncomfortable! But honestly it has been amazing! I have used it for a couple of cycles now and had absolutely no issues getting it in and out, there are good instructions on the website and online in general for first time users. I love that I can leave it in for up to 12 hours and not worry about it. My period is light and so it lets me just forget that i am even on it. I couldn't really feel the cup when it is in. I love that i am not flushing rubbish away, it is totally zero waste and much cheaper in the long run. I would 100% RECOMMEND! I also love that this company give to period poverty charities and use inclusive language on the packaging.

Amazing!
It's amazing! I can change twice a day (with a moderately heavy flow) and forget I'm on my period. I'll never go back to using tampons.

Highly recommend
This is the best thing that I have spent money on in years! It was far easier to use than i initially imagined it would be. I tried it at first when I was just home for the day, i didn't want to be out of the house the first day i tried it. It was so easy to get in and take out. It hasn't leaked at all. I use it at night time too and am really pleased with it. Can't feel it, is super comfortable, and easy to put in place and take out. It's going to save me a fortune.

Perfect for a low cervix!
Perfect for a low cervix! Around day 2.5/3 of bleeding my cervix drops and becomes low and hard, making it difficult to insert most cups. I have found the C cup version of Libby cup to be perfect in this situation. It is much less thick than anything I have previously used, yet it still holds a sizeable amount so I don't have to change it too often, but is slim and soft. Using a scissors, I snipped about half of the bottom off of the stem, on account of my cervix being low on those days, it was sitting too low and causing discomfort. Now it's perfect as I still have enough to hold on to when removing but can't feel it once it is inserted. I use the B cup version of Libby cup first. Then, once my cervix drops I switch to the C cup.
