Looking at making the switch to using a mooncup, is there any specific brand I should look at?

Also is it fairly easy to use?

Thanks

I have one and it does take some getting used to so don’t throw out your Sanpro right away!

No brand advice, I bought a wee cheap one that hasn't let me down. I will say though, it's a bit trial and error to begin with. It can get messy while you're figuring it out but once you get the hang of it you won't look back.

Go on the website put a cup in it and take their quiz. I have a mooncup but I have a high cervix and can’t get it out without a serious amount of tears (crying tears that is, not ripping tears!!) I’m planning on getting a lily cup as they’re designed for a high cervix. Definitely worth knowing tour body before you invest

I have one (Mooncup UK - tried both sizes) but it makes it very difficult to pee (for me) and really hurts.
I don't want to have to remove the cup every single time I need the bathroom.
I gave up on it after a few months for that reason.

I've got a Kind Organics one, can buy them in Boots. It's been good so far, had it 3 months, no complaints!

Thanks guys.

Did the quiz as suggested. Gave me a couple options so I’ll have a look into them.

I've just ordered a tulip cup as they have a sale on at the moment. Never used one before but have only heard good things about cups from friends so looking forward to it arriving.

I bought one as I was convinced to by reading on here.
I hated it.
It was really hard to get in, harder to get out (think suction!) and all in all literally a bloody mess.

I’ve had mine for a few days, and was surprised at how quickly I got the hang of it. It took a good few tries to get it in properly but after a few hours I completely forgot about it.
