The invention belongs to the technical field of sanitary items, in particular to an intelligent menstrual cup. The cup comprises a cup body, an intelligent monitoring module and a power module electrically connected to the intelligent monitoring module. The interior of the cup body is provided with a cup cavity. The top of the cup cavity of the cup body is provided with a circular opening. The opposite side of the circular opening at the bottom of the cup body is provided with a support handle. The interior of the support handle is provided with a passageway connecting with the cup cavity. The passageway is provided with a valve used for controlling connection of the passageway. The intelligent monitoring module comprises a blood test chip capable of menstruation blood, a sensor capable of monitoring the internal environment of the cup cavity, a data collection module electrically connected with the blood test chip and the sensor and a wireless communication module used for sending collected data to an intelligent terminal. The intelligent menstrual cup has the following beneficial effects: physical health data of a physiological period of a woman can be effectively monitored; meanwhile, the blood test chip is arranged in the menstrual cup so that a menstruation blood detection result can be given within minutes and even seconds; and the woman can timely know the physical condition so as to avoid the trouble of drawing blood on a daily basis.

The invention discloses a Diva cup. The Diva cup has the beneficial effects that as a disinfection and sterilization film is arranged outside a cup body, the problems of gynaecological diseases caused by using unclean Diva cups can be reduced; as an anti-slip thread is arranged outside the disinfection and sterilization film, the phenomenon of slip of hands during use can be prevented; a clamp slot is formed in a liquid drain pipe; and fixing buckles are arranged on folding parts, thus ensuring that the liquid drain pipe is in a closed state after the folding parts are folded.

The invention discloses a backflow preventing menstrual cup, and belongs to the technical field of articles for menstrual period. The menstrual cup comprises a cup body, wherein a cup cavity is formed in the cup body; at the top of the cup cavity, the cup body is provided with a round cup opening; at the opposite side of the round cup opening, a stream guidance pipe is arranged at the bottom of the cup body; a valve is arranged on the stream guidance pipe; a membrane valve, which can seal the round cup opening, is arranged in the cup body; and the membrane valve can be opened in a one-way mode towards the inner side of the cup cavity. According to the backflow preventing menstrual provided by the invention, adding the membrane valve on the basis of a conventional menstrual cup, an effect of one-way sealing is achieved on the inner side of the round cup opening; therefore, when liquid flows into the cup body from the round cup opening, the membrane valve becomes deformed so as to permit the liquid to enter the cup body, while when the cup body is inverted, the liquid in the cup body, due to own gravity, exerts pressure to the membrane valve so as to seal the round cup opening by virtue of the membrane valve, so that a good sealing effect is achieved, and a good backflow preventing function is realized.
