To think MNers can come up with a better IoT product than a Bluetooth - enabled mooncup?

[MrsJamin]

Seriously, would anyone even consider putting one of http://www.live-smart.co/news/this-menstrual-cup-texts-you-from-inside-your-body-1331 these Mooncups that send you push notifications into themselves? Or am I missing out on the benefits? Perhaps the person that thought of it is a MNer...

Gah trying link again... www.live-smart.co/news/this-menstrual-cup-texts-you-from-inside-your-body-1331

"Sheldon: Penny, everything is better with Bluetooth."

I never thought it could possibly lead to this....

Yes, ridiculous. Where can you buy them? Asking for a friend...

The stem itself needs to sit just outside your body in order to connect to your smartphone

Sounds uncomfortable. I was under the impression that many menstrual cup users found them more comfortable with the stem trimmed off, I certainly wouldn't want it protruding from the body.

Well that's just put me off my stew.

I'm able to do all that myself thanks. Not rocket science to know if you need to empty your mooncup ffs. I've had enough periods to know how it all works.

And to quote Dragons 'for that reason, I'm out'.

I'm crossing my legs and cringing at reading that.

The stem needs to sit outside the body? - Owwwww.

They might be onto something. Does the mooncup vibrate when it's time for a refresh?

Nooooooo! This has to be a spoof.

Please?

Maybe it beeps when it's full?

They should put microchips on tampons too. Save a lot of women from toxic shock syndrome.

ladyvimes you get a push notification to your phone when it needs to tell you to take it out etc! PING! [Your mooncup needs to be emptied!]

I use a Mooncup and I can feel when it's full and, as I'm pretty sure that I have a run of the mill fanjo, I imagine most other women could feel it too. So, not really needed. Especially as my phone spends a lot of time in the DC's hands. I can just picture it now, in a restaurant waiting for our order to arrive, "ping" "Muuuum, your Mooncup wants to be emptied".

a push notification

I'm wondering whether they've actually asked any women whether they think this is a useful product.
