Diva Cups and menstration cups?

Question:

Anyone have any opinions on using these. I would like to cut down on the cost of tampons and am considering getting one of these. Any suggestions on which one or the use of them. Do you like them, ect??

Answers:
I use Instead, the disposable ones. They are ok. They are really messy when you take them out. If it is full, it will run out really fast and make a mess all over your vagina and hand as soon as you break the seal it has formed.

They do work well though, and if you get it in properly (it's really easy), they don't leak.

They are fairly cheap too, I get mine at Wal-Mart and they are 14 for around $5, cheaper than tampons, because they can be left in longer.

I only use them if I'm not gonna be able to get to a restroom for a long time, like for over 8 hours, because they can be left in for up to 12 hours.

eww no... i think you should stick with tampons..

??????????

Yeah tampons and pads seems to be getting expensive, but they are a nessecity that you can't cut back on because you need them for that special time of month!!

i think it'd just be a hassle to use one of those cups if you're switching from using tampons...here's a site with info about the so-called "21st century tampons"

I love Instead cups, nothing to mess with all day at work. Then I just have a quick shower when I get home. Another one lasts til morning. I like the disposable idea better than something permanent that I have to wash and save from month to month. Diva cups are expensive! Try Instead first to see if the whole thing works for you, then consider the Diva cup.
