Flex Cup

I was excited to get my period for the first time ever but I don't think this is the cup for me. The material is very firm and hard to keep folded while inserting. I go from getting a sharp cramp right after inserting, to mild cramps and none, then back to hurting. I'm gave it a good 8 hours and it only leaked an itty bitty amount. The pull tab is great! I have arthritis and small hands and a high cervix so I was concerned about my ability to remove a basic cup. I think my body needs something a little smaller though. The pull tab sticks out of me.

I have a super high cervix (4"+) and I have needed help with cup/disc removal before, but not this time!! The flex cup is perfect for me. I can reach it easily and pull on the tab to release the suction. Phenomenal design. I hope more companies can learn from their product design

I loved the period quiz to start! I’ve tried the diva cup in both sizes and didn’t love my experiences. I couldn’t grasp the cup to pull it out easily, I never felt very comfortable with it in, and during bowel movements I’d always feel it shift. I was pretty unhappy with these cup experiences and went back to disposable tampons and pads, but after multiple BV infections I was determined to find another method! The period quiz was nice and thorough and suggested the flex cup. I loved the idea of the pull tab and the smaller size of the whole cup. I was concerned if the tab would be too long and make the cup uncomfortable to wear. I’ve only been through one cycle with the cup now, but I loved it so far! The softer rubber does pick up lint easily so I think I’ll have to deep clean it every time. Still though, this cup was a great size and the pull tab is such a game changer for removed. As a late twenties female with no prior pregnancies and a very bowel heavy period, I enjoyed this cup and would recommend to anyone similar to my situation!
