Pixie Menstrual Disc - No Metals or Toxins - 100% Medical-Grade Silicone - Ranked 1 for Most Soft Reusable Period Disc - Removes Like a Tampon - Wear 12 Hours - Capacity of 7 Tampons (Large)

What a great disc! Once you get the hang of it (after a couple uses) it's so easy to use and comfy. I bought the insertion tool too and that is very helpful. I can wear the disc for hours and no leaking. It's great, I can just go and pee when I need to and not worry about changing anything. Would highly recommend. Amazing customer service too. I emailed and they responded so quickly and offered a different size to suit my body for free!

I have been using the Pixie Disk for the past 2 years and it has been a real life changer! I recommend it to all of my friends and anyone who will listen, lol! For a little more money upfront, I have saved hundreds of dollars that I would have spent on tampons. Once you learn how to insert it properly and sanitize it, its very easy! I leave it in all day and don't have to worry about forgetting to pack more tampons for the day, because it self empties when you use the restroom. It has made managing my period a lot easier, and it's made from medical grade silicone so I feel more comfortable about putting that in my body rather than cotton soaked with pesticides. My disk did rip recently during cleaning (which could be expected after using it solely for 2 years) but I activated the warranty when I originally bought it, so I contacted the Pixie team through their website. They immediately reached out to me that same day and once I sent them my order number, they shipped me a replacement disk! If you are trying to decide whether to order it or not, give it a chance! There is a small learning curve so take it out in the shower to begin with, but if I can figure it out, so can you! :)

Second month using it, it has leaked through my underwear and trousers! I have to use towels with it. I have tried different ways of applying it, watched all videos but it leakes! I bought a large one and when I remove it, the disc is not even full!

After having two children, I decided to try a disc, as the menstrual cup I used pre-kids wasn't staying put and was prone to leaks. This disc would have been an absolute game changer for me, but after some investigation, turns out my cervix happens to be tilted right at the back, so I was getting leaks. Nonetheless, the disc is comfortable and stays put and would have been brilliant if it weren't for my anatomy. The pixie team were incredibly helpful, giving me pointers and sending links to the relevant info videos to troubleshoot. They even sent me an applicator to see if that would work to get the disc as far back as possible. Everything I have received or bought from Pixie has been very high quality, and I've tried a lot of products!! I have never encountered a company with such great customer service. I might try the large cup and see how I go..

My wife got this and so this review will be based on her opinion and written by her: I got this disc after seeing that it's something new new and different from the menstrual cups. I have been a cup user for about 4-5 yrs and felt that they are not as comfortable and leaks most of the time when on heavier days. After reading the great features of the disc, I was ready to make the switch and honestly, will not be going back to the cups. So with the disc, leaking only happens on the more heavier days (and I do have very heavy flow for the 1st 1-2 days), so I do have to wear a backup pad. I am very satisfied w/the "self-emptying" function on those heavy days. I have to say it really does self-empties every time I use the toilet on those heavy flow days. The other days, the disc doesn't leak at all, I can be rest assured that I can just keep it in there for the max 12 hrs and won't have to worry about it. The other plus about this disc is the comfort of it. After insertion, I don't feel anything anymore and it pretty much stays put the entire time until I take it out. This is a great improvement from cups because I noticed that the cups I used would slide down and cause me discomfort after a while. It's worse when I'm using the toilet. Insertion is also easier than a cup. This disc is amazing compared to the menstrual cups. For one thing it doesn't have the suction function, but instead it rests right on top of the pelvic bone under the cervix, so it pretty much catches the flow if placed correctly. It's a learning process, but pretty similar to inserting the cup. I have no significant issues inserting the disc in, only once in a while I don't always placed it in correctly and it'll be immediately noticeable because the edge will not sit on top of the pelvic bone no matter how I pushed it. One of the minus I have to say is that taking it out is much messier than a cup, but I learned that it's not so bad when using the tail to pull it out slowly, and making sure the disc stays upright. The only thing though is I noticed that the tail started to show signs of wear and tear along the entire tail stem. and I got this disc back in May (which is only about 5-6 months ago). It looks like it can break any day now and I only used the disc during my period which lasts about 6-7 days per month. So I have to say that the tail is too frail because I'm very dependent on it when taking out the disc. On the cups, I never needed the tail, and as a matter of fact, I actually trim it off because they are uncomfortable and keeps sticking out. But I'm totally dependent on the tail on this disc and it's actually very easy to tuck it in after the disc is on top of the pelvic bone. I just wish the tail is made much stronger and more durable. Now I have to be careful not to tug too hard. Overall, I am amazed with this disc. After using it, I'm never going back to the cup.
