Perfumed soaps with unfavourable pH-values might leave the cup with a layer of substances that irritate the mucous membrane; they sometimes contain agents that also keep silicone from functioning properly. It is better to wash the menstrual cup carefully with tap water before using the wrong kind of soap.
