They are raved about so much on Mumsnet, I have heavy periods but I love to swim and want to be more eco-friendly so it seemed like a good solution.
I’ve tried it today for the first time and I hate it! I can feel it constantly so I trimmed the stem almost completely but I can still feel it when I walk. I tried to readjust it and the PAIN when I first took it out - honestly, I gave birth twice with no drugs at all but I was not prepared for that. I’ve now got the hang (I hope) of completely breaking the suction seal before removal but it involves - contorting more than I had anticipated.
Anyway, I’ve tried wriggling it around a bit but I can still feel its presence constantly there and it’s incredibly irritating.
I hated the idea of a menstrual cup but I really wanted to be wrong. I want to love it but am not impressed so far. Will I get used to it? How long did it take if you have one and like it?
