Do I need an extra large mooncup?

Hi, I use the large mooncup size but find I have many leaks. I've been using it for a couple of years now, but recently my periods have become heavier and it's becoming more of an issue. Could it be that my mooncup is too small for me? I've had three vaginal births, in case this is relevant.

Mooncup don't do an extra large size, are you aware of a different brand that do bigger sizes? Thanks.

It could be leaking because it's full rather than too small.
What happens if you empty more frequently?
Sorry if you've thought of this already.

Have a look at this chart

There are lots of different sizes of cup listed and you can see how they compare to a mooncup. Consider the length as well as the diameter because a longer cup would have a greater capacity.

My mooncup leaked like buggery. Changed to a Diva cup and have never looked back. I cant quite understand why as there doesnt seem to be very much to choose between them and they go in the same position but one suited me so much better than the other.

Despite my username I actually use Me Luna cup which is a better fit for me Grin
