What To Know Before You Get Started
We’ve combined our extensive menstrual cup knowledge with our Menstrual Cup Comparison Chart to create the original and most accurate menstrual cup quiz (we know, we’ve polled!) to help point you to the best menstrual cup for your body, age, history, activity level, and more. Our goal is to help you find a cup that will work for your needs the first time!
We invite you to take this easy-to-use quiz, even if you’re a cup user, but especially if you aren’t! We have included questions to address the most common complaints about period cups in the hopes that the answers will lead you to a better cup for you.
Before you take the quiz, please keep a few things in mind:
- I am not a doctor. This quiz was designed by advocates with decades of combined experience as cup users and people who have had to navigate menstruation for at least twice that. It was also developed with the consideration of countless hours spent talking with others, listening to their feedback, and learning from their experiences. This quiz was informed and designed by experience at its core. It is a sharing of peer experiences and is not medical advice.
- For the best, most accurate results, answer each question to the best of your ability and based on averages. For example, if you have one heavy day with the rest being light, I suggest selecting a medium or average flow rather than basing that answer on your heaviest or lightest day. Answering based on the more extreme portions of your period will likely result in reduced accuracy and a less-than-ideal cup. Please also remember that it’s normal to empty your period cup more often on heavier days.
- We can help! If you take the quiz and only receive a suggestion for a cup you use or have used and don’t love, join our Facebook community, and we can collectively help you troubleshoot! Our menstrual cup quiz works for most people, but bodies are complex! We have a lot of tricks up our sleeves — some we even use ourselves to make our own cups leakproof, and we would love to help you make your cup work.
What is the best menstrual cup for you?
I am often asked what the “best menstrual cup” is, and the inconvenient truth is that it is all about what works for your body and your lifestyle. I wish it were as simple as telling you my favorite cup or asking a friend what works for them, but that’s just not the case.
I may be biased, but I believe we have the best menstrual cup quiz. Our quiz was thoughtfully designed to make choosing a cup as easy as possible by giving you the confidence of knowing that the cup you’re choosing was selected based on your body, period, wants, and needs.
My best advice is to start by taking the quiz and answering each question to the best of your ability. Each answer is carefully weighted in order to calculate what cup will work best for your needs. Once completed, you will be presented with 3 to 6 cups that are similar and solely based on your answers. You can confidently choose any cup listed or fine-tune your decision by comparing your results on the menstrual cup chart or comparison tool.
If you have questions or need additional support and encouragement, join the Put A Cup In It Community on Facebook to get experiences and feedback from nearly 100k menstruators who have been right where you are.

The menstrual cup quiz, along with all of our other resources, are projects that I care deeply about. They have helped countless people find their ideal period cup (and other period products) and successfully switch from Day 1. They have also helped current users improve their experience by pairing them with a cup or product better suited for their needs and anatomy.
While we have affiliate relationships with most brands featured, it does not impact what cups and brands are included in your results. Each product is selected based on how well it fits strict criteria for fit, quality, and accessibility.

Dear,
test suggested me Meluna shorty mostly based on my low cervix. I bought it in M size, classic softness, but it leaks very often, although half empty. Should I consider firmer cup, or larger cup diameter?
I gave birth twice, exercise 2x a week pilates, my cervix is around 4cm. I am considering Lena S, Lali S and Merula.
hi. based on the quiz, I was recommended the super jenni, small. but I am over 30 and have had a baby. shouldn’t I purchase the large?
Their small is about the same size as a large for other brands. I personally use their small size and love it. -A
Help I can’t get the quiz to load so I can see which one I should try.
So I tried the blossom cup and it got stuck! I had to go the urgent care to have them take it out. But I really liked it when it was in. I just have a very high cervix but now I am scared to try a different one. I really jusy want to know what the longest cup is out there so hopefully I can try again next month.
Hey, this is a great way to find a cup
I just think that the option of the cup leaking was missing on the cup user experience page. Also the Lena Cup was suggested to me, but it didn’t say which size
I’m a first-time user along with being a first time mom. And let me tell you! This cup is amazing!!!!! I took the quiz & bought the cup they suggested was best for me, and it was seriously the best decision I’ve made! I absolutely love it and will never go back to tampons! Don’t be intimidated by the thought of trying something that’s different (and weird for some). I am completely comfortable with my body so it was no big deal to me to have to insert & take it out to empty. I truly recommend taking the quiz, and taking the plunge of buying one! Love my cup. Thank you putacupinit!
I bought the SiBell by the way & I LOVE IT 🙂
I took the test 3 times with the same answers & got 3 different suggestions. Does that mean that there are several that might work? I’m concerned that it didn’t record all my selections on the page about cervixes and cramps. Thanks!
