Has anyone tried the divacup?

Question

I just purchased the divacup and it doesn't seem to work for me.  I'm not sure how often to empty it and I'm not sure how i go about cleaning it before i reinsert it.

Answer

Love it love it love it! Just be careful if you have an IUD in place, the suction caused mine to slip out of place and resulted in an unwanted pregnancy!

Answer

My first period day, I empty every 4 hours during the day. Leave in overnight. The rest of my period is lighter, so I empty when I wake up and 2 hours before bed.

After you insert it, make sure you are able to twist it easily. If you can't twist it, pull it out halfway and push it back in. Then try twisting again. I usually try to let a little air in, which will help get it to twist easily.

Answer

I got mine to help with conception. I conceived the same month I got it. So I never got to use it for my period but when I did use it after sex it was a little odd at first but after I got used to it (couple minutes) it was no different that a tampon. :)

Answer

It doesn't have to be emptied often, it can be in for 12 hours. Just rinse it clean or if you have the wash they sell with it, that's what I use to clean it. It can be boiled to clean it between cycles too.

Answer

I haven't used one but I've been thinking about getting one. I suggest looking up videos on YouTube, they are awesome at explaining How insert and remove them.
