Yesterday I finally found a video that showed and explained how to insert a menstrual cup in such a straight forward way that I think I will be able to confidently insert my cup and maybe even use it. I just wanted to share the link for anyone who is interested in trying a cup. For those of you who haven’t heard of them, it is a reusable silicone cup you use to catch menstrual blood during your period. They can be worn up to 12 hours and because they are made of silicone (many are medical grade such as the Diva Cup) there is no risk of tss.
It’s a great way to have a more comfortable and eco friendly period.
Check out how to insert one here.
The video also touches briefly on measuring so that you can buy the right cup for your anatomy.
Enjoy.
