Quick answer
Choose the MeLuna Sport for high-intensity workouts and strong pelvic floor muscles; choose the Classic for everyday comfort and easier removal with the ring handle.
Firmness makes the difference
The MeLuna Sport is made from the brand's firmest material, designed to resist compression during exercise or when pelvic floor muscles are strong. The Classic uses a softer, more flexible silicone that many find comfortable for daily wear.
Capacity and sizing
While both cups offer the ring handle for easy removal, the Sport comes in standard sizes only. If you need maximum capacity for heavy flow or postpartum use, the MeLuna XL (Classic firmness) provides the highest capacity in the MeLuna lineup.
Trade-offs at a glance
- Seal during exercise: Sport’s firm material keeps the cup sealed during intense movement, but can feel firmer against the vaginal walls.
- Comfort for all-day wear: Classic’s softer silicone is more comfortable for long hours, but may collapse under strong pelvic floor muscles.
- Removal with ring handle: Both cups use the ring handle for easy removal. The Sport’s firmer body makes the ring easier to grip, while the Classic’s softer body may require more care. If you have dexterity concerns, the ring handle on either cup is a good choice.
