I promised myself that I would sit down and write more details about the Diva Cup ages ago, and somehow have never gotten to it! Here it is.
The Diva Cup (and its cousin product, The Keeper) are both reuseable menstrual cups worn internally. They catch the fluid for up to 12 hours, at which point it's recommended that you remove, empty, wash and reinsert it.
Inserting it has a learning curve, and so does removing it, but when it's in it's like someone hit the "Goodbye period!" button. I don't even feel it once it's in, and I have no leaks. NO LEAKS. Even with tampons I always had to have a pad as a backup. Also, when I used tampons, I always felt really *dry* for a few days after my cycle. It must have thrown off my internal balance. With my cup, I just feel normal. And of course, when I used pads it was just... bleah. What a mess.
So, no mess, no leaks, and no out-of-balance vaginal issues. Added to that, I never have to worry about running out of supplies or spending money on something that will soon be trash!
OK, all done guys! You can come back from the sports sites now!
Guys?
Hello?
Damn. Never tell them to go away if you want them back!
