Don’t panic. This is perfectly normal especially for first time users. Here are some reasons as to why your Pomé is leaking. 

1. It is not inserted properly

An indication that your cup is inserted properly is that there should be no dents when it is inserted. It should open like a perfect umbrella. You can check by feeling the bottom of your cup. Try rotating and tugging it until the dents are gone.

2. The airholes of your cup are blocked.

There are 4 air holes on the rim of your cup. These air holes are meant to create a tight seal. If one of them is blocked then the airtight seal is gone. Make sure the holes are always clean before inserting to prevent leaking.

3. Your period is heavy.

Though the cup can hold up about three times more than a menstrual pad, sometimes a person’s period is heavier than the average. If the contents reaches the air holes, this can affect the airtight seal.

We recommend checking on your menstrual cup every two hours if your flow is heavier than usual.

We recommend putting it in your everyday bag or in your office drawer for easy access. 

Usually, you only use one Pomé cup during your entire period as it is reusable.

In most cases, our Pomé users store one cup at home and one at their office just in case their period comes around depending on where they are.
