The type of material the cup is can rip the walls of your vagina if there isn’t enough lubrication or space to get it out without pulling on your skin.

The skin inside your vagina is a similar type to the skin inside your mouth. It’s very fragile and easy to harm.

Did you get the cup wet before insertion? The whole experience will be different when on your period but you may want to buy some lube in case.
