Diva cup??

Question

What do you girls think of diva cup?? Is it safe??

Answer

It is the best thing ever!! You don't even feel it when it's in and it's healthier than pads and tampons.  Those both contain toxins that can cause toxic shock syndrome.  I highly recommend it!

Answer

Tampons and pads don't contain toxins that lead to tss. They do contain chemicals/fragrances that can prolong your period and make symptoms worse. Your body naturally produces the toxins involved with tss when old blood is left inside and bacterial toxins start poisoning/attacking your body. The cotton is what makes tss more likely with tampons when left in for extended periods of time because bacteria travels from the string to the absorption point. Cups are a safer option as (most) are medical grade silicon. It suctions to your cervix so there's no access to air flow and nothing accessible for bacteria to travel from outside the body to inside. There are many cups and each have different lengths, levels of firmness, and stem/no stem. Research and questions will help you decide which is best for you if a cup is even the best option for you.

Answer

Personally, I don't like the idea of holding blood inside of me. I used to use tampons a lot but now I use 100% cotton pads and only tampons when needed. But to each their own.
