Guidance required for menstrual cup

2017-08-30 17:10:28
I'm a 25 year old unmarried and sexually inactive woman. I recently heard about menstrual cup and would like to try it. I'm unable to measure my own cervix length. Since I'm unmarried, can a gynaec help me measure my cervix length for choosing the right menstrual cup? I had heard that it's illegal to do any insertion in an unmarried woman's vagina.
