Menstrual Cup Disinfection Options

How to use your microwave sanitizer, plug-in steam sanitizer, and Milton Mini Tablets.

Clean your cup first. Disinfection does not replace routine cleaning. Wash and rinse your menstrual cup before using any of these methods.

Microwave Sanitizer

How to Use

  1. Clean your menstrual cup before sanitizing.
  2. Place the cup inside the container and add enough water for the cup to float freely.
  3. Place the lid loosely on top so steam can escape. Do not seal the lid tightly.
  4. Microwave on high for 3 to 5 minutes total. Depending on your microwave’s wattage, the water may take 1 to 3 minutes to reach a full boil. Keep it boiling for at least 2 more minutes.
  5. Water and steam will be very hot. Wait for the container and its contents to cool before removing it from the microwave or taking out your cup.

Important: Sanitizing does not replace routine cleaning. Clean your menstrual cup before using the microwave sanitizer.
