Menstrual cups

So, I've done some research and decided to give the menstrual cup a shot. I have a few days before AF arrives and wanted to try it out. Putting it in wasn't too bad but taking it out was a different story. I was struggling to remove it. My question is for anyone who uses a menstrual cup. Is there any tricks for removal that are a little easier? It was like my vagina was a vacuum and the suction was making it difficult to pull it out.

Grasp and pinch the base so it releases the suction for a more comfortable removal. I have used a moon cup for about 3 and a half years hand I took quite a while to find the right way to insert and remove my cup comfortably and confidently.

I dont cut the too of the cup and that helps. unfortunately, I often inevitably cut my finger nails around my cycle time so without nails, I have to dig in and pull the cup out by squeezing the middle. its a messy process but I just love the cups over any other option so I dont mind washing my hands.
