Why don't you ?

Question

Why don't you use a menstrual cup ? I'm always curious since everyone seems to be singing their praises!

Answer

I have no interest in washing blood out of it every few hours (or at all).

Answer

Just don't want too lol

Answer

Most women I think don't know about them and then are scared or grossed out at first. I adore mine. It's amazing to have control over your period and no long feel negative about it.

Answer

Voted never heard of it to see poll. WOW. Ladies it's not dirty. :) it's actually MUCH cleaner/healthier than tampons OR pads. Disposables contain chemicals and bacteria and dioxins which the CDC has stated there is no safe amount and cause cancer. They are almost all made of silicone. All materials are medical grade and can be sterilized. There is also no risk that has been found with cups for TSS. Also won't dry you out or cause imbalances which can cause things like yeast infections.

I tried using one last month and I loved it..until I tried getting it out! It took me a good 20 minutes to get it out and that was so painful I'm nervous to try one again this month. Any tips?

Answer

Never heard of it until I got on this app.

Answer

I voted can't, but to be honest I bought one just last week to try it out. I've admittedly been a bit nervous about it, but will give it ago next cycle. I like that it's more environmentally friendly than either of the other options. Wish me luck, haha!

Answer

Before birth control, I had a very heavy flow and emptying and cleaning in public restrooms just bothered me. Now that I'm on birth control, my flow is so light that I mostly just use panty liners.

Answer

Where do you buy these things?! I had never heard of them until I got this app and after heard of them I thought they sounded odd but everyone on here seems to love them so I want to give one a try. Any recommendations for a newbie?
