Can I use my cup with long nails?Updated a year ago

Nails can be tricky when using a menstrual cup, but plenty of people have no problem keeping their nails long when using their cup! The best idea is to take it slow. We recommend angling the tips of your fingers inward, toward the cup, to avoid scratching during insertion or removal. 

Above, plus: Some people with long nails have told us it was helpful to use latex or nitrile gloves while they were first learning. Of course, trimming your nails shorter may make the learning process easier if you’re open to that. But don’t be discouraged – if you prefer to wear your nails long there are plenty of cup users with long nails who are able to handle their cups comfortably with no problems.
