Damaged
If the cup is visibly damaged, MonthlyCup guidance supports replacing it. Do not try to “repair” silicone or keep using a cup that no longer appears intact.
Condition checks
Check the cup, not the calendar.
A menstrual cup is a product you can inspect. This guide explains the replacement signals supported by MonthlyCup guidance without inventing a fixed lifespan or unsupported test standard.
Checklist
Three signals to take seriously.
The wording below follows the supplied MonthlyCup guidance. It is product-care language, not a medical diagnosis or an independent lab assessment.
Sticky
A sticky surface is specifically named in the supplied guidance as a reason to replace the silicone. If you are unsure whether a texture change matters, ask current support.
Noticeably changed
Noticeable change is a broad signal. Compare the cup with how it normally looks and feels after cleaning and drying, and treat meaningful change as a reason to review replacement.
A simple inspection routine
1
Clean and dry first
Inspect after the cup has been cleaned and fully dried, so moisture or residue does not confuse the check.
2
Look around the rim and body
Notice whether the shape or surface appears damaged or meaningfully changed.
3
Feel for texture changes
If the silicone feels sticky, the supplied MonthlyCup guidance says to replace it.
4
Use support for uncertainty
If you cannot decide from the instructions, contact MonthlyCup support for product and shopping assistance.
Important boundary
No invented expiry date.
The source pack does not verify a universal five-year, ten-year, or other fixed replacement promise. That is why this page uses condition-based wording instead.
Product note

Condition FAQ
What people ask before replacing.
Does a menstrual cup have a fixed replacement date?
This site does not state one because the supplied source pack does not support a fixed universal lifespan. It focuses on condition-based replacement signals.
What condition changes does MonthlyCup guidance mention?
The supplied guidance says to replace silicone that is damaged, sticky, or noticeably changed.
What if I am not sure whether the silicone has changed?
Use the supplied instructions first. If uncertainty remains, contact MonthlyCup support for product-specific assistance.
Is discoloration covered by the supplied replacement guidance?
The supplied guidance provided for this guide does not give a separate discoloration rule. This page therefore sticks to the verified wording: damaged, sticky, or noticeably changed silicone.
