Quick answer
Use the MeLuna Microfiber Drawstring Pouch to store your cup between cycles, and pack it as a breathable travel case that won't trap moisture or lint.
Why a dedicated pouch matters for cup hygiene
Storing a menstrual cup in a plastic bag or loose in a purse can expose it to dust, lint, and bacteria. The MeLuna pouch is made from soft microfiber that won't shed fuzz on your cup, so it stays clean between uses. The drawstring closure keeps the cup secure without trapping moisture, which helps prevent odors and mold.
When the pouch isn't enough
The pouch is ideal for dry storage after a full wash and dry cycle. If you need to store a damp cup for more than a few hours, consider using a ventilated container instead. For long-term storage between periods, always make sure the cup is completely dry before placing it in the pouch.
How to store and travel with your MeLuna pouch
- Wash and dry your cup thoroughly: After your cycle, clean your cup with mild soap or a dedicated cup wash, then rinse well. Pat dry with a clean towel or let it air dry completely. A damp cup stored in the pouch can develop odors. Moisture is the enemy of long-term cup hygiene.
- Place the cup into the pouch: Open the drawstring wide and gently slide your dry cup inside. You can store it folded or unfolded—the pouch is sized to fit all MeLuna cup sizes comfortably. Pull the drawstring to close the pouch securely. Avoid crushing the cup; the pouch is soft and flexible, so it won't distort the shape.
- Pack the pouch for travel: Tuck the closed pouch into your purse, backpack, or suitcase. The microfiber material is lightweight and won't add bulk. Because it breathes, you can keep the cup inside for several days without worry. If traveling by air, the pouch passes through security easily—no liquids or batteries to declare.
- Remove and rinse before next use: When you're ready to use your cup again, take it out of the pouch and rinse it with warm water. The pouch itself can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried between uses. The pouch is reusable; just wash it occasionally to keep it fresh.
