Large
We recommend a "large" for those who have given birth vaginally or been diagnosed with a condition called Menorrhagia. The large cup's height is 6.9 cm and 4.7 cm in diameter. The cup holds approximately 36ml. of flow.
Small
We recommend a "small" for those who have a normal to heavy flow but have not given birth vaginally. If you have given birth vaginally, we recommend you size up to the large. The cup's height is 6.3 cm and 4.3 cm in diameter. The cup holds approximately 28ml. of flow.
Mini
We recommend a "mini" for teens and petite anatomy. If you suspect you have more than light to normal flow, we recommend you size up to the small. The cup's height is 5.7 cm and 3.8 cm in diameter. The cup holds approximately 18ml. of flow.
Switching to a menstrual cup is a big step. That's why we've created the June cup quiz here.

United States United StatesI am in love with my June cup! I switched from soft discs and I will never go back! Super easy to insert and remove. Comfortable and convenient.
United StatesThought it was strange at first, but I would never go back to traditional period products. Best thing ever!
United States United StatesI want to TOTALLY love the June cup but I don't. Yet. I have only used it for one period so far and I am experiencing a rather unexpected learning curve. So that this review doesn't get super long, I will break it down into my top three pros and cons. Top 3 Cons 1. Hard to put in at first, and if not in right it HURTS! This will probably resolve itself over time as I get more practice. I am a plus sized woman and I think that factors in quite a bit. Because ya' girl can't reach. 2. I lied, I only have one dislike. On to the pro's! Top 3 Pro's 1. Very well made. The silicone doesn't feel like it is going to tear or rip, even when you're giving it a good tug whilst in the retrieval process. 2. I had SO much satisfaction emptying the cup. Knowing I was dumping it instead of smearing it all over myself just gave me feel good fuzzies. I felt cleaner...I WAS cleaner! 3. I didn't have to worry about daytime leaks...which for me is HUGE! I typically go through three or four overnight super soaker pads per day for 7-9 days straight. I am always leaking and staining my clothes. Not to mention that awkward waddle-run as we try to reach the toilet before the blood running down your leg becomes apparent to everyone around you. 4. I had to include this in...I really like the fact this is so enviromentally friendly. I'm no tree hugger but as I get older I find myself appreciating reusable items more and more. 5. I was a bit worried about cleaning the cup out but it wasn't as terrible as I was expecting. A good wipe with TP if water wasn't available did the trick. Just make sure you have a bathroom sink working...I didn't and had to do the walk of shame in front of my five kids to the kitchen sink... never again. I wiped it out and rinsed it with the bathtub faucet. I hope this helps someone because it took forever to type out on my phone. I plan to pair this with reusable pads to catch any leaks. I did have it leak when in overnight but it shifted a LOT while I was laying down so a pad is useful for that happening again. Hence why the leaking is in the footnotes instead of the Con section. I'm sure once I figure out how to keep the physical pain from happening when I wear this I will be thrilled that I stuck it out. So, while I love the IDEA of the June Cup, I need a couple more months of practice before I can honestly say "I'm never going back."
