A member asked:

I just realized tonight that i left my menstrual cup in for 3-4 weeks. what should i do???

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I am sure that you have removed it ASAP and try to not use for a while. Hopefully you do not have any consequences or infection. See how you do and contact your OB/GYN
