Softdisc Menstrual Discs

If you want the semi-TMI, girl talk honest review on these, KEEP READING! Okay, these are an absolute game-changer, especially for those with a heavy flow. Let me start by saying, to use these comfortably you should be/should become very familiar with your anatomy and comfortable being able to reach all up in there (if you know what I’m sayin). Inserting it is easy and comfortable, once it was in I truly couldn’t feel it was there at all! I was super pleased with this. This is my first day and I wore them up to 6 hours at a time - probably could have worn far longer because I had ZERO leaks. Now, removal is where things get a little trickier. For me, my vagina had pretty much eaten this thing (LOL) because it goes in pretty far, behind the public bone, and your muscles pretty much enclose around it. To take it out, you basically hook a finger in the rim and pull it out, but because it was so enclosed in there I prefer to fully relax the pelvic floor, and bear down/give a good push. After this, it was soooo easy and comfortable to pull right out. Disclaimer though, when you bear down/relax your pelvic floor like this, it empties into the toilet, and things get a little crime scene-esque on your finger iykyk. I imagine if you didn’t push first and just pulled it out it would be cleaner, but I just do what feels most comfy. If you are super squeamish with blood I gotta say, I wouldn’t recommend this. After my second try, it was already easy/routine. Overall, these are an amazing alternative to tampons and pads and so much better for your health! I’m never going back! Soooo much more comfortable.

I can’t beleive I overlooked this product for so many years, but am relieved that as a last resort I finally found it! I have tried EVERYTHING under the sun for my heavy, uncomfortable and temperamental periods. And EVERY one of them had a huge downside for me. The biggest downsides were leaking, pain inserting or taking out, or the worst one, causing a UTI or bladder irritation by the end :( I don’t know if I have a particularly sensitive vagina or an unusual cervix position, but I know that I always have problems no matter how careful I am and it was very depressing. Cups never fit quite right and hurt to take in out no matter what I tried (also pushed my bladder uncomfortablely), then would leak every time even after doing every suggestion I could find. Tampons I could feel and would hurt when hitting my changing cervix, not to mention bulging out at heavy times causing pain on my urethra, and completely dried me out by the end. Disposable pads were sweaty, stinky and no matter how ‘green’ would always cause irritation. I had finally just become dependent on cloth reusable pads, which were great for absorption and were the only thing that didn’t overly irritate...I was about to resign myself to them for life. The only things I didn’t like were the constant cleaning of them, feeling uncomfortable on hot days with a bulge in my underwear, and feeling gushing at times...I mean, I trusted them not to fail me but every woman still feels that twinge of fear that it might just keep going past the pad! I was about to try another brand of reusable cup when I saw these. I read a lot of info on them and liked that they sat more like a diaphragm then something in your canal, so I decided to give it a go. Insertion was a BREEZE compared to anything else and after tucked behind my pubic bone I couldn’t feel a thing, it was amazing!! The real test was how long it could hold up this way. I went to a museum with my family and we were walking everywhere for HOURS. I had a small reusable pad on just in case, this was my heaviest day and the cup was going to be put to the ultimate test. I had less cramping than normal (not sure if this was because of the cup or just my cycle) and I FORGOT I was wearing it! That never happens!! I was reminded finally after about 5-6 hours when I had to go to the bathroom. (I would have had 3 bathroom visits with a tampon in that same time!) There was absolutely NO leaking onto my backup pad, I would have just rinsed and reinserted but being in a public stall I just emptied what I could (the whole disc was filled btw) then changed to a new one. I had packed some medical gloves and just used one for easy cleanup and insertion...that is the best idea possible trust me. It is a little messy taking out but with the glove is no problem. I went the rest of the day without incident and then went to the beach the next day same thing. This is the first period in my life (no exaggeration) where I have felt free. Before, it just felt like something was always wrong and I was miserable just trying to prepare for the next mishap. I didn’t have to worry this period. No pain, no leaking, no irritation...I seriously have found my holy grail! If you have tried everything else with no success I strongly suggest giving these a try. I was at the end of my options and am SO glad I did as this is it! Ps- as others have suggested you can also use your muscles to empty the cup by bearing down while on the toilet then just using a finger to push the rim up behind your pubic bone again, this was so helpful in a public restroom when I didn’t have time one time to do the full change routine! As if it couldn’t be better!

I was pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of this product. Admittedly, I was nervous and scared to try these but I've read so much about them and I have a very busy schedule that doesn't allow me to use the bathroom often enough during my period to change a tampon (and this product works for up to 12 hours without risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome!). This review will be 100% transparent, raw, and honest so if you are squeamish... look away now. This review will talk openly about the normal, natural, and beautiful female body and the process of making menstruation more comfortable. Firstly, insertion can be confusing and messy, mostly in the beginning. I watched videos on YouTube to help me but, the truth is, you won't really know what you're doing unless you really know your body and are comfortable with it. The videos explained how to insert it, they talked about your cervix, your tailbone, your pubic bone... but where are all of those things inside my body?!? I didn't know!! I highly recommend figuring that out ahead of time if you aren't already aware. Remember: your body is natural, there's nothing to be ashamed of, and it can be empowering to learn and explore your own body. Secondly, every woman is different and every woman's body is different. Your body may change throughout time too. If you have given birth vaginally and/or you have a pelvic floor problem and/or if you have had a prolapse, this will also impact insertion and how the product interacts inside your body. For me, I have to be very careful because of my pelvic floor difficulties - if I cough hard or sneeze hard and I have not physically prepared myself for it, this product can become dislodged from my pubic bone, causing a leakage. If you have not given birth vaginally and do not have any physical problems, you may find that your pubic bone is more pronounced inside your vagina, thus making the product easier for you to use. I was surprised that the product wasn't detectable while in use. It felt as though I wasn't wearing anything! I experienced zero physical discomfort during insertion, removal, or while wearing it. The only discomfort I felt was emotional awkwardness as I tried to figure out how to use it. I do wish that the box came with better instructions but, as stated previously, YouTube is great for that! A few more words of advice: I highly recommend learning about your body before trying this product. Give yourself time and be patient with yourself. Remember that your body is normal, natural, and beautiful. I also can't stress it enough: watch How-To videos. If you will be using public restrooms often while wearing this product, I recommend bringing wet wipes with you. Why? Because it takes a bit of finesse and practice to remove the product without getting blood on your finger(s). Public bathrooms have papery thin toilet paper that will just further frustrate you. If you have a wet wipe, you can easily clean your hand and move on with your life. Once you become at expert at using this product, you may find that you have no need for wet wipes but, as a mother, I feel compelled to nurture all of you by advising that it's better to have the wet wipes and not need them than to not have them and need them. These are certainly the next generation menstruation product! Only a few decades ago, women had to wear belts to hold a giant wingless pad in place. Now we have this product and it's great!

Only thing I can wear. To bad it’s so expensive i Sweden 🤷🏻‍♀️ Remember to push it in like a record, not up like a tampon. Weird to think like that the first time but it works. 🙃 Just pushing it in like a record, back to you butt, if you understand what I mean. 😅👍

We were trying to conceive for 3 years when i came across reviews of softdisc as a fertility aid. Luckily, In just three months using these i conceived. It works!!!

Buenos mejor que las otras no sé si es el aro más rígido más fuerte en los otros tienes perdidas en este ya puedes reír, estornudar,etc y no tienes perdidas al menos a mí prefiero este que los otros

These products are great. They are comfortable and highly recommend

I have menorrhagia, extreme bleeding, which is normally only barely helped by the biggest period cups on the market and pads the size of an adult diaper. Menstrual discs are by far the best brakes I have come across, they significantly slow down things so I can get to the bathroom in time in the mornings and not cause a flood during a sneeze. The first 2 days of my cycle I always always have to wear night time pads in addition to absolutely anything I put 'up there' because it will definitely leak, but that's a me-problem and not a product-problem. On day 3++ they are enough on their own so I can stop wearing pads. (I manually fully empty when on toilet on day 3 to avoid leakage) Love that they partially empty themselves when I go toilet so I don't have to empty manually every time, like I would have to do with a suction reliant device like a cup. I have used a different brand of disposable discs before and really loved those too, the only real difference would be that these have a slightly softer ring so I don't notice ANY discomfort on my bladder or urinary tract. I find them easy to both insert and take out, just hook a finger on the ring in the front and pull out. Compared to a tampon these things are a godsend; not once have I felt the occasional grueling pain of pulling an xxl tampon out, and not ever have I been worried about toxic shock or been grossed out about where that moist string has drifted off to. I wouldn't use a tampon again if I was paid to do so. These discs aren't exactly cheap, but I make a box last about a year with only using one disc per period, so I get a lot of value out of one pack. I have previously had a reusable disc that worked just as well, only issue was that I really didn't feel like I managed to get it properly cleaned between uses so it got discoloured, and I didn't want to carry it around in my bag as it was in a fairly large bright silicone case. The disposable one I can keep in my bag as they are quite small and don't really stand out. Highly recommend and will definitely be a repeat customer.
