An early version of a bell-shaped
menstrual cup was patented in 1932, by the midwifery group of McGlasson and Perkins.Later
menstrual cups were patented in 1935, 1937, and 1950.The Tassaway brand of
menstrual cups was introduced in the 1960s, but it was not a commercial success.Early
menstrual cups were made of rubber.Today, both silicone and rubber models are available. Most are reusable, though there is at least one brand of disposable
menstrual cups currently manufactured.
In 1987, another latex rubber
menstrual cup, The Keeper, was manufactured in the United States. This proved to be the first commercially viable
menstrual cup and it is still in manufacture today. The first silicone
menstrual cup was the UK-manufactured Mooncup. Most
menstrual cups are now manufactured from medical silicone because of its durability and hypoallergenic properties. The German brand MeLuna is the only company to manufacture their cup out of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer). Menstrual cups are becoming more popular worldwide, with many different brands on the market, and there are different sizes and shapes available.
As we are the professional factory of medical silicone
menstrual cup in China, our product was certified by CE and SGS certification.
