Abstract
A high-quality menstrual cup that can be used repeatedly and is comfortable when used. The menstrual cup has a head portion, a body portion, and a handle portion that are formed of the same silicone resin. This silicone resin has sufficient elasticity to permit the above portions to be deformable upon application of an external holding force by a user's fingers as well as structural restoration when the applied external force is removed. The head portion and the body portion are integrally formed, and a receiving space having a bottom is formed inside the head portion and the body portion. The receiving space has an opening on the upper side that allows menstrual blood to flow inward from the the opening (6), so that the menstrual blood can be received in the receiving space (5).
