A protective device for protecting a female genital region, particularly during athletic competition, having an elongated, banana-shaped cup portion with an elongated concave cavity having sufficient volume to bridge over the wearer's vagina and perineum without contact therewith, and adapted to extend rearwardly between the wearer's upper thighs with the edge of the cavity proximate to the superior ramii, the inferior ramii, and/or the Ischial ramii of the pelvis, with minimal contact with the upper thighs, and a resilient padding mounted onto the edge of said cavity adapted to absorb at least a major portion of any impact experienced by said cup, and optionally including a curved, kidney-shaped shield portion adapted to fit against a wearer's bowel area sufficient to overlay and shield the ovaries.
