What Causes Pain, Cramps And Soreness After Using Menstrual Cup?

Hello. Last month my doctor treated me for pelvic inflammation. I didn t have all the symptoms, just some pain during sex. I had also tried a menstrul cup for the fist time and it was painful. My doctor said I should be able to use it pain free after the inflammation is gone. My antibiotics are done and everything felt fine until I used my menstrul cup again. It caused cramping, soreness and even hours after I took it out everything is tender. Is it possible I am just sensitive? I don t want to use antibiotics again if I don t need them. Thank you.
