How do I know if my cup is inserted correctly?

If the menstrual cup has been inserted correctly, you might hear a “pop” or a suction sound which means that the cup has unfolded and created the necessary suction seal. If you’re in doubt, reach in and feel around the base of the cup – it should feel round or oval and not have any noticeable folds.

How do I get my menstrual cup to sit lower?

Why can’t I get my menstrual cup to unfold?

You might have a tilted cervix. If you have a tilted cervix, and your cup isn’t properly aligned, your menstrual flow might run along the vaginal wall, missing the rim of your cup completely.

The spindle has a cone-shaped race and the threaded bottom bracket cup has an internal cup shape. The bearings are trapped between these. Begin by removing the cranks.

Can you listen from top down or bottom up?

No, not at all. To think that you can only process a listening from the general level (top-down) or in a word-by-word (bottom-up) way is very misleading. In fact it is quite possible, and I would argue quite common, to employ both approaches on any one text.
