Diva Cup

[bouncybouncy]

now i have tried the product "instead" with no luck...in fact it actually worked but i couldn't get it out!!!!!

i see that alot of women are having issues with the device (mooncup/diva cup...etc) being too long which leads me to believe that i must be long on the inside...being so short you would not think so

so that is a good idea to try the "instead" but i must say again & again...once you get the hang of it (and the right fit by cutting off the tip) it is a wonderful, wonderful invention!!!!

I, also, have tried the Instead product. Had no luck! It would NOT stay in, no matter how carefully I inserted it and followed the directions. I finally decided I must either be oddly shaped or just not long enough inside to hold the little bugger. So I gave up and went back to tampons. With any luck, I WON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT too much longer. I am SO ready for menopause. There has to be something good about getting older......... Not bleeding every month would be one of the good things.

Corsair - are they latex or silicone? I'm considering returning the Diva cup and trying the mooncup, but this might be another option. I contorted myself in the shower (which was a much less messier option), but it still didn't work. I'm still sold on the idea, I think I just need a shorter one.

And... {{it's FishDrs fault}} - baahaaahaahaaa - it's infectious. That was a good one BTW

ummmm not a clue! it's some soft somethingy on the edge and then has a catch basin made out of somethingy else. (good thing there aren't any men here - all this technical jargon would leave them confused and searching for their "tech talk for dummies" book) It might be worth a try, the catch basin is structured Much differently than the Diva which is why I'm thinking it's more comfortable - but then I never tried the Diva.

Try the website for the Instead Cups...www.softcup.com ...for more info.

From the website:

Q: Does the INSTEAD® Softcup® have any latex?

A: No, there is absolutely no latex used anywhere in INSTEAD® Softcup®. The INSTEAD® Softcup® reservoir is made of Polyethylene.

I've never managed to find these, but I'm so happy with the diva, I haven't gone looking either...
