Thinking of switching to a mooncup. Advice and recommendations, please.

I'm getting tired of feeling uncomfortable every period. Since giving birth (not recently) I just don't seem to get on with tampons anymore, whichever type I try. They don't ever seem to sit in the right place but I can't face going back to pads, which I haven't used for over 25 years.

I'm thinking of a mooncup or similar but I don't want something that's going to be uncomfortable or difficult to get in and out. Can anyone reassure me that it's worth the investment? I'm quite small and usually use normal tampons, never super ones and even they cause me problems.

Google the "put a cup in it" quiz and it will guide you to the best type of cup for you! I did it and would never go back to pads or tampons again. Takes a cycle or two to get used to, but now, best thing ever!!

Definitely worth it. I barely even notice my periods anymore.
