Athena Small Silicone Menstrual Cup - Reusable Period Cups for Menstruation - Soft Comfortable & Environment Friendly - 12 Hour Organic Menstral Leak Protection & 15 Year Lifespan - Teen or Adult

I am never going back to those degrading wads of cotton again! I am free from the shackles of the luxury item tax. These cup things, despite weirding some people out, are a life saver, when sanitary bins are no where to be found, or the day when you seriously underestimate the power of your menstrual flow and have naively only popped a regular size tampon up there on the day you decided to wear that cute new white skirt to work to try and catch the eye of fit Gregg, who you're pretty sure is a butt guy and man does your butt look good in that new white skirt, much better than Stacey's for sure... well that is... until... the Great Leak. Have no fear!! for these cups can hold much more than a tampon and so.... as long as they're correctly inserted, are far superior to any other kind of menstrual control product (wings or no wings).AND they last for so long, like 10 years long (save money).AND they help the environment (no more tampons getting stuck up dolphin noses).AND you can get fun colours (stylish, even match your underwear if that's what you're into).AND no toxic shock syndrome (you never have to worry about losing a limb on the battlefield which is your period again!)P.S. Okay sometimes it nocturnally migrates up towards your cervix for a closer look and some mornings you might, hypothetically of course, panic and think you're never getting out and it's stuck up there forever and you'll never get a boyfriend again, but all you gotta do is wait for gravity to do it's thing (maybe aided along by a few squats - always love a few squats) and it soon comes shimmying on down. Also it's not like it can be in there for "too long" like a tampon so you're good to live your life without The Fear!

Sin duda la mejor que he probado.Probé otras como la del supermercado, y la Enna. Tenían muy buenos comentarios pero no son mejor que esta. Las otras o bien son muy duras o si son cómodas y blandas, entonces tienes pérdidas.✅ Esta es de tacto suave, pero con suficiente dureza como para quedar bien acoplada y no tener pérdidas.Las que tienen esta forma se quedan bien sujetas en el interior, las que son mas ergonómicas o que van mas al interior, esas se colocan mal y se mueven de los lados en el interior, y no quedan bien puestas. Hay que cogerlas con esta forma.✅ Puede que veas algunas con el rabito mas largo y creas que así mejor para sacarlo, pues no, lo mejor es como esta , con el rabito corto. El rabito largo y delgado es para las que van mas arriba y al estar tan arriba luego cuesta de sacar estirando de un rabito tan delgado, y al final tienes que meter los dedos para coger la parte mas gruesa. Lo mejor es las que tienen el rabito corto y duro, porque se quedan sujetas en el cuello del útero y el rabito duro permite que lo puedas coger con los dedos y al ser mas gordo que tenga fuerza para poder sacarlo.✅ El vacío o la ventosa: La mayoría hacen vacío, de hecho hay algunas que hacen tanto vacío que parece que te vayas a sacar el útero entero por ahí; en el caso de esta, es adecuado, y por lo tanto es fácil de sacar sin hacerte daño y sin pasarte 5 minutos estirando para despegarlo.Yo tengo reglas abundantes y cogí la talla 1, no he parido, pero aun teniendo mucha pérdida, era suficiente con la medida de la copa. Si has parido quizás te va mejor la talla mas grande, pero en mi caso no quería que me apretara mucho y fuera fácil de sacar, pero que no se cayera o fuera suficiente para la cantidad de perdía, y lo es.👍

You are on the fence. Sounds cool... who doesnt hate tampons? But sticking fingers up there... getting blood everywhere.... I know cause I had the same concerns. From the other side: just so it. Its comfortable, easy and suprisingly simple to empty. Yes there is a learning curve, you will need to put it in and take it out several times before you get the hang of it. But worth it in the end. This model is perfect and the price point is excellent. Stop reading and buy it! Your vagina will thank you. :)

I've been using menstrual cups for years, mooncup and divacup. I left my divacup somewhere and decided to try this as a replacement. It's too soft! I folded it 3 different ways and it simply would not pop open inside me, I was wiggling it and twisting it inside me, but it simply wouldn't pop open. After ten minutes of trying I gave up and used a tampon.I've never had this problem with the firmer cups so it must just be too soft, and I see other reviewers had this issue as well.

I am still getting used to the idea and the whole process, as i was quite negative and sceptical in the beginning.. When i managed to use it right, it gave me so much peace of mind and sense of cleanliness. And i was unlucky enough for my difficult days of the month to coincide with a quite intense and rigorous Yoga teacher training, but it stayed in place and all was good. I bought the small cup, in clear. It is easy to fold, quite soft and looks/feels like really good quality. Once i put it in, i could not feel a thing, as if nothing was there. I was a bit concerned about the stem, during bicycle riding, but apart from the fact that if placed correctly, the stem does not stick out, it is so soft that it does not create pressure or discomfort, when i sit on the saddle. I think it does take a while to get used to, especially regarding correct placement and with taking out (please be patient and take the time to relax, do not force pull out, it will hurt). I have only been able to place&remove while in the comfort of my own home and in the shower, i do not feel like i could ever do all this while anywhere outside, but it works for a good amount of hours, so you should be ok. I am happy to recommend this cup and i am sure it can make our lives so much easier. Thank you Athena team.
