It is caused by a toxin produced by bacteria (called Staphylococcus aureus or Staphylococcus aureus) that live on the human body or in the body &#8211; usually in the nose, respiratory tract or on the skin.<br\/>The conditions under which this toxin is produced by Staphylococcus aureus are still unknown, and most people are naturally immune to it.<br\/>But a minority not being immune, it is advisable to bring you clear information, because half of the cases occur during the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the potential seriousness of TSS, it must be detected and treated quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">What are the symptoms of TSS?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It can look like a sudden flu in many ways, with symptoms that do not necessarily appear all at once: high fever (39\u00b0 or more), headache or sore throat, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, fainting, muscle aches or rashes that look like sunburn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">What should I do if I have these symptoms?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Remove your cup as a precaution<\/li><li>Contact a doctor or hospital immediately and be sure to talk about TSS and the fact that you are on your period.<br\/>If you have had TSS in the past, you should consult your doctor before using internal protections (tampons or cups) again.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">The proper use of the cup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We advise to use a cup size that corresponds to your flow and to ensure that you respect a maximum wearing time of 8 hours in a row.<br\/>We also invite you to wash your hands properly before handling your cup, as staphylococcus aureus is found in many cases on the skin.<br\/>A direct link between cup and SCT has not yet been demonstrated, but we are convinced that precise information on the correct conditions of use will allow you to use your cup in complete safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/luneale.co\/blogs\/cuplife\/risques-sct-syndrome-choc-toxique-cup-menstruelle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about the cup and the SCT (in a new tab) &gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group alignfull has-ast-global-color-0-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" id=\"adaptation\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">Adjustment period<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">If you have never used a menstrual cup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It generally takes time to familiarize yourself with the different manipulations.<br\/>Try La Cup preferably during the last days of your period or outside of your period (by moistening it) and pair it with external periodic protection (panty liner, towel, menstrual panties) while you acquire the right gestures .<br\/>For some people this uptake is very quick, for others it can take several cycles. So don&#8217;t be discouraged, it&#8217;s normal and your efforts will be rewarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"alignwide wp-block-heading\">If you have ever used a regular menstrual cup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may also need to allow time for adaptation to La Cup Luneale, as its operation is very different from that of other menstrual cups. In particular, be aware that since it does not need to be fully extended (unlike regular cups), it can sometimes confuse you, and you might think that it is not put on correctly &#8211; which would not necessarily be the case. . <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div id=\"avertissements\" class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warnings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>La Cup is not a contraceptive and does not protect against Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs).<\/li><li>You can keep La Cup on when you go to the bathroom.<\/li><li>As La Cup is positioned in the vagina, you should not have vaginal intercourse while wearing it.<\/li><li>If you wear an IUD, cut the wires short and take care to pinch the Moonpad\u00ae well when removing it so as not to move it.
