Cup supports having a head portion defining an aperture for receiving a specimen cup for the collection of a liquid and a handle portion extending from the head portion. The head portion and the handle portion can be integrally formed, and in some embodiments the cup support is adapted to absorb liquid that impinges on it during use.

A female urinary catheter system may be provided comprising a drainage aperture element with an outer edge surrounding an inner aperture. The system may utilize a catheter conduit coupled to the inner aperture and may comprise one or more conduit segments which each have a first terminal end and a second terminal end. Further, the system may utilize a storage receptacle coupled to the catheter conduit with the storage receptacle comprising a leg coupling mechanism. Additionally, an anchor element may be coupled adjacent the drainage aperture element to provide positional stability to the drainage aperture element

Examples relate to fluid collection devices, and related systems and methods. A fluid collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier, a fluid permeable body, a tube, and a sump. The fluid impermeable barrier has a distal end region and defines an opening and a chamber in fluid communication with the opening. The fluid permeable body is positioned within the chamber at least partially at the distal end region. The tube extends into the chamber and has an end positioned proximate to the distal end region of the fluid impermeable barrier. The tube includes a tube opening at least proximate to the end of the tube and oriented to face at least a portion of the fluid permeable body. The sump is positioned in the area between the tube opening and the distal end region.

The disclosure relates to a hygiene product, in particular a menstrual cup, having a cup body comprising a cup wall defining a receiving space using an inner surface, the cup body comprising on a first end an opening opening into the receiving space, the opening having an edge, and at a second end, a bottom opposite the opening, and the cup body comprising a generally conical shape, tapering towards the bottom and terminating in a tip. The hygiene product is characterized in that the cup body is rotationally asymmetric and a central axis of the cup body runs curved.

Arrangements described herein relate to a device for collecting intravaginal fluid. The device is defined by a hollow collector and a flexible fluid collection bag, wherein the device is configured such that when inserted into the vagina, the hollow collector forms a seal with the inner walls of the vagina, while the fluid collection bag extends outside the body. By allowing fluid to collect outside the body rather than inside the, the device is permitted to be narrow in diameter (such as, for example, the diameter of a tampon), to increase user comfort. Flaps at the opening of the hollow collector may be used to seal fluid within the device when it is extracted from the body.

A menstrual cup having improved leakage protection along with enhanced features for facilitating its swift and easy removal from a user that includes a cup shaped main body having an open top end and a closed bottom end, an elongated loop member attached to an exterior of the closed bottom of the main body, a lip member positioned about an outer circumference of the open top of the cup shaped main body, and one or more of a spiral ribbing located about an interior surface of the cup shaped main body extending from the open top of the main body to the closed bottom of the main body, a plurality of openings extending through the cup shaped main body located near the open top of the main body and spaced equidistantly from one another about a circumference of the main body, and a plurality of raised oblong shaped rings equidistantly spaced apart from one another on an exterior surface of the cup shaped main body near the closed bottom of the main body which form suction release indentations.

An example device suitable for collecting and transporting urine away from the body of a person may include a fluid impermeable housing defining an internal volume. The device can include a porous material disposed within the internal volume. The fluid impermeable housing can define an opening in fluid communication with the internal volume. The porous material includes a contact surface and first and second sidewalls. The sidewalls can extend from the contact surface, for example, substantially orthogonal to the contact surface, or laterally and inwardly from the contact surface at an acute angle.
