Such a huge thread, I may have got the wrong end of the stick. OK, I have a coil, don't have periods as such, just spotting with one or two heavier days. I do use pantyliners for spotting and tampons on heavier days, but they are still light compared to 'real' periods. I get the feeling the mooncup is not for me, but if anyone with simialr patterns disagrees, I would like to know, as I am concerned about the environmental impact of panty liners and tampons, even though my use is fairly minimal. But I don't want to pull my coil out- does this really happen?
