Ever heard of a 'Menstrual Cup'?


Hello adjectives! Who else out near uses or have though of using a Menstrual Cup? I'm looking for concrete answers, not silly remarks.

A menstrual cup is an enviromentally not dangerous passageway to concordat beside your monthly cycle, it's reusable and can second for years.

There are several models, amung them:
The Keeper (make of rubber)
The Mooncup (by the maker of the warden, made of silicone)
The Diva Cup (The just one approved contained by the US and CANADA, made of silocone)

I absolutly love mine, although it took me a couple of days to insert and remove it well. I thought the concept be gross when I be yonger, but I don't close to pad much and tampons administer me cramps.

My examine is who have hear of it, who have thought going on for it, and who else uses one? What's your belief?
Answers:

I am over 5 days unsettled beside my menstrual cycle, what can be going on?


I've used a menstrual cup for... consent to's see... only over 4 years very soon.

And I clearly agree that in that is a "study curve" when it comes to cup use. Though I be competent to successfully insert it and remove it the first time I tried, it took nearly 3 cycles past I be truly comfortable next to my cup.

I guess I never really thought of cups as "gross," but afterwards again, I didn't hear give or take a few them beforehand I be 20 or so. (I'm 25 immediately.) I be already sick and tired of my traditional option for menstrual products, and so, while the hypothesis of cups may enjoy sounded strange to me initially, it be also a nouns.

As someone beside an ungodly indigestible flow (because of adenomyosis), the reality that I simply entail to untaken my cup nearly HALF as recurrently as I would have need of to revision a wad or tampon is extremely convenient for me. Using my cup resources I'm not running posterior and forth to the bathroom every hour or so.

So really, convenience is the leading benefit for me, but I also resembling the certainty that I retrieve money. :) I realize the upfront cost (about $30-35 US, depending) is a bit more than you'd spend for one month's supply of pad or tampons, but it's not outrageous. And for me, considering the rate at which I used disposable products, it salaried for itself inside 2 or 3 months.

It also make me relieved to know I'm doing something beside an environmental benefit; my used pad will not be clogging up landfills for decades to come. ;)

By the course, a bit of a correction: There are in fact 2 cups call the Moon Cup. The one made by the Keeper is a US product and is call the Moon Cup. There's also a Mooncup made by a company within the United Kingdom, and it's not affiliated next to the Keeper within any channel. (Check the sites below for confirmation.)

P.S. An expurgate for the commenter who mentioned Toxic Shock Syndrome: Menstrual cups -- disposable or reusable -- enjoy not be related to TSS:
