    okay....

    I don't think I would want something extra inside with something already in there...

    But... interesting

    Thanks for the enlightenment

    Sorry to be off topic, but what does "DH" stand for? I'm assuming something husband, but not sure.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    Too Funny! DH could be used that way for many ex-males in our lives. I know it has been talked about in other threads . . . the joy of dating a man that cycles . . . but doesn't it seem that some of the things that make biker-dudes the things of our dreams (living outside the norm, independence, passionate) also make them harder to live with?

    Sorry....I thought it stood for "D...head". I've been exposed to Australian humour too long.

    Thank you, I had always heard it referred to Down Hill, but that wasn't fitting into the context

    This will make reading much more sense now - hehe

    cups

    Okay, i am a new road biker and find the idea of the cups intriguing. But I tend to get crampy from wearing tampons. I find that in the beginning of my cycle (when it's heaviest) I have to wear a pad so as to not get cramps. Does anyone have the same problem with the cups?

    Welcome deenpac.
    I am crampy for one day also. The diva doesn't make it better or worse. I do get good relief with 400-800mg of ibuprofen though.

    Hey doc, the cramps I am taking about aren't the usual 'first two days in bed on Darvocet and Naprosyn' kind of cramps (although I DO get those because I have endometriosis).

    These are acute cramps from the tampon that instantly go away when I remove the little bugger. I think that it is a muscle contraction of sorts, like the pelvic floor muscles just can't handle holding the tampon in without being spastic. Just wondering if the cups would have the same effect or not. I understand that they expand into place?

    Hmmmmm. Hard to say what your body will do with the diva cup. I am betting it won't object. I can feel tampons oftentimes, but I never feel the cup if it's in place correctly. I think you're going to have to try and see. Make sure you let us know.

    from my experience, I'd have agree on this!
