FAQ: Sterilizing Your MeLuna Cup in the Microwave

Can I microwave the MeLuna Disinfection Container with the lid on?

Yes, but leave the lid slightly ajar or use the vented position (if your model has one) to allow steam to escape. Never seal it completely, as pressure can build up. Always vent the lid to avoid pressure buildup.

How long should I microwave the container?

Place the container with your cup and enough water to cover it in the microwave. Heat on high for 3–5 minutes. Let it cool before handling. Do not microwave an empty container. 3–5 minutes on high is sufficient; never microwave empty.

Can I use the container for other microwave tasks?

It is designed for menstrual cup care. While food-grade, it's best to keep it dedicated to cup sanitizing to avoid cross-contamination. Do not use it for cooking or reheating food. Reserve the container for cup care only.

What if I don't have a microwave?

You can still use the container with boiling water from a kettle or with cold-water sterilizing tablets like Milton Mini Tabs. The container is versatile for both methods. The container works with boiling water or cold sterilizing tabs too.
