Talisi Menstrual Cups Set of 2 with Collapsible Silicone Sterilizer - Soft & Flexible Sensitive Feminine Reusable Period Kit - for Women Heavy & Light Flow (Small & Large) Tampon Pad Alternative

Ok, so I haven't used the Round stem on my cycle yet. I've inserted both and felt the differences.One, the round stem ones are more rigid, like my Diva Cups. They are easy to insert as they pop open more easily and you know they're in correctly and hardly feel them compared to tampons.The regular stem is really soft. You don't feel them at all when they're in (to a point you'll forget you have on on). Along with them being really soft, they are quite a bit harder to insert. They are so soft, they offer no support while inserting, you also don't feel them pop open and have to manipulate it more with your finger to get it to open to form the seal. With that being said, they freaking don't leak. My Diva cup, that's WAY more expensive is super easy to insert, but when I feel a gush, I know I have to run to the bathroom right away as a leak is happening and it's happening NOW. I felt that gush at work with this soft one... yeah, I decided to try it out while I slept, then at work... and I had no leaks. I wasn't even sure I inserted it right when I did it when I slept, and the same right before work. But no leaks. I went to take out the cup and my cup collapsed on me. I didn't think I had much in there and was SHOCKED at how much came out. I cleaned up and re-inserted and when I emptied after my 12h shift, a lot came out, but I had no leaks. I'm still getting used to inserting this soft cup, but so far no leaks. It just holds and holds well. I didn't believe all the rave reviews until now. I do still need to test out the ball one, but I'm kind of wanting to do it for my next period as I have different flow rates at different times of my period and do want to test this one out for the whole cycle to see how it does for the whole week. I have removed it 3 times and have yet to do it right without collapse. I'll try again later and hope for the best, but I'll keep water handy for the inevitable. A bidet would come in handy for sure.I don't feel that suction like I felt with my Diva Cup when removing (like I'm about to pull out my uterus) but it didn't Shift and it didn't leak, not even during a BM while it was full, (looking at you, Diva Cup). While it didn't feel like it's a strong suction like the rigid one, it also doesn't leak for me. It's a lot easier to remove than the rigid one as it's not holding on for dear life... so I'm not rating suction power because it kind of feels irrelevant if it's not leaking like the ones that feel like they hold on more.Edit:I'm nearing the end (the beginning of day 5) and do far, no leaks with this regular stem one. I did get practice on inserting with the Diva Cup, so I did understand how it had to open. I personally used the punch down method because it was smaller and easier to insert. That method is harder to get back open with the more flexible cups, but as I'm used to that method, I'm still sticking with it and making sure it opens up while I'm there. It still takes longer to insert, but so far so good. I've felt like I've leaked or would leak, but nothing so far. I do want to test out the round stem one next as it's more similar to the Diva cup, but maybe a little firmer.As the Diva cup did leak, I'm a little more hesitant to do so without a liner. I guess that's an update for the end of June... if I remember to swap cups. Can't believe such cheap cups do so well.

Ever since I purchased these i have stopped using tampons and pads. I feel so much more free from the stress of periods. Amazing product and cute little carrying case!!

I am giving these a 4 because the silicone is harder than any other cup I have purchased. They also are more difficult to get open. That said they definitely made a tight seal. So much so it was difficult to break the seal to remove it. The advertisement said they were soft so I was surprised by how hard they were.The cup to sanitize them is very nice and folds up and they come with a drawstring bag which is also a nice bonus.

I have not used them yet, but they seem flexible and small enough. The instructions with them seem to cover what you need to know to insert them correctly. It seems more like something that you change out when you are home or you need to have a spare that is very clean and protected available. I plan to back these up with some reusable pads also. Should these not be flexible enough, I'll edit my review. The same with leakage, should I have any issues after learning how to properly fit this.I will say that having two sizes is wonderful! One is for someone who has delivered vaginally as opposed to not, but I'm sure there is plenty of variation to make the two sizes a good idea for most people anyhow.

I decided to venture into cups and discs this past month after a few months of periods that make it near impossible to use tampons. I followed all the guides, I measured multiple times, off period, beginning, during, end and everything told me a needed a cup or disc for a normal to high cervix, over 35yo, and have had multiple kids. So I was prepared with cups and discs and when I started this month it just wasn't happening, it was like the cups were sticking out and just not comfortable at all! And forget the discs, I have to "shelf" for them to sit on and they just pop out. But according to everything I in fact have a high cervix, but I digress, went back to tampons then decided you know what, let me try a cup for a low cervix before I totally give up. I of course don't want to spend $30+ dollars for something that may not work out, so I found these cups, half an inch shorter then everything else I had tried and it is perfect! I use the larger size as I'm 39 and have had 5 kiddos, plus bleed pretty heavily. It's so easy to use, and once inserted properly after a minute or two I don't even feel it. A simple pinch at the bottom makes removal easy peasy! The material is soft yet sturdy for an easy insertion. I now know that cups do in fact work for me and what size length wise I need so will now start looking for a larger capacity cup as my periods do get really heavy.
