EllaCup - A cup-like receptacle placed by the user into the vagina to collect blood and cellular debris discharges during menstruation and discharges outside of the monthly menses. It is a small, soft device made of a biocompatible synthetic material (e.g., silicone elastomer) and is normally available [non-prescription] over-the-counter (OTC). It is typically removed from the vagina by pulling on a protruding stem; depending upon design, it may or may not touch the cervix. The device can function as an alternative to tampons. This is a reusable device.
