Hey!i just got my periods and this channel had helped me a lot! It’s very difficult for me because it stays for 6 day:( But I’m very happy to learn more about what products could be good for me!
Cool guys! Well idk if you are young, but younger people usually like to use pads, but if you want to use cups or discs that's great too, but if you are using a cup or disc, disc especially, make sure you watch a lot of insertion videos and tutorials to make sure you do it correctly and don't cause discomfort for yourselves and don't pet it leak, also if you are gonna use a disc, make sure you measure your cervix to know which sizes to use, you can find out how to measure your cervix on TH-cam as well good luck
The Femmicycle is my absolute favorite cup. I know it's unpopular and people find it intimidating (not to mention it's not recommended for people with certain uterine / cervical issues), but it's the only cup that doesn't leak for me 🤷♀️. I've used it for about 7 years with no issues.
I agree 100%. Femmycycle cups work so well for me and I have less leaking when I use them. I hope people remember that some unpopular designs may still work well.
have you tried diva cup before? that’s what i used to use but it just would always leak or be super uncomfy i just gave up using it because it was so stressful and frustrating idk if it’s me or if i just need a different kind
I have the Cora disc and love it. Tried a few cups before and would always be hit and miss some days I'd be leak free all day, other days I just could not for the life of me get it to open up properly. The Cora is so easy to insert and remove.
The first yes (green cup) is a Saalt cup. Second yes is a Lumma disc (this is actually the thing that has worked for me as a beginner, I'd REALLY recommend it, esp with the string tucked in). The 50/50 in her hand is a Cora "perfect fit" disc (many people love it. Some people find the finger notch useless and would prefer they spent money on a different disc). The blue one in the same frame in the background is a Saalt disc size regular(similar notch style, similar reviews from people but this notch at least has some grip to it compared to Cora). I recently bought this one but I'm not sure if I hate it or I'm still learning with it (it's harder for me to fold with one hand and so my hand cramps up while trying to insert, and then I also have to bear down to get it out because I can't get the finger grip to work for me at all. But then I think the size might be a good diameter for me so still waiting to form a conclusive opinion). The "yes of course" is the Hello disc which this youtuber has designed herself in collaboration with the brand Hello. I've not used it but SO MANY PEOPLE LOVE IT is all I gotta say. And not at all just because it's got her name on it. Like it's a design that solves a lot if problems for people using reusable menstrual products. The "yes I've grown really fond of this" is the Formoonsa disc. She has a review of it on TH-cam here. The "surprisingly I actually really like this" is called the Coral Cone. I assume you really only want to know about the ones she recommends.
@@ruthelirnieves everything I know about those cups I only know from watching her videos on her channel, so she has a couple of "worst cups..." type of videos you can watch and she'll explain there. Pretty easy to tell which ones she hates by most of the thumbnails and titles, so you can easily watch them yourself to get an idea. Its been awhile since I watched them but I can tell you confidently I would never feel the need to even try the "no" and "absolutely not" cups/discs because it was very objectively reasonable opinions that she gave so you could also just trust her and you won't regret it. But I did enjoy watching the videos of the failed cups because it helped me learn what things are gimmicks and not what you should care about (like excessive decor that just ends up uncomfortable/pokes you (aka the heart stem cup))
Found my diva cup at Marshall's for like $10 and have never bought tampons since, but I wear liners for the occasional leak. Towards the end on my lighter days I still use pads/liners. I'd want to make the switch to period underwear though!
I used to use a Diva Cup before there were so many cup models and reviews, but the firmness and slight suction on the cervix was so painful during the first two days. I’ve been wanting to try a silicone disc since Softdiscs were more successful
@@vendelaberglund5904 this is 2 months late but incase you still aren't aware, slipping out of place easily actually means a disc is too big in most cases. Perhaps you should try the Lumma M :)
The one that says 100% no is the one I have and it works great for me 😊 as it's for lower cervix. Every girl is different, so maybe the first one you try is not your match! (I tried Intimina brand first and it didn't work for me as I had leaks and felt uncomfortable. So don't worry if your first choice doesn't work 😉
How do none of y’all understand that this audio isn’t actually her voice and is just a common, popular audio that a lot of ppl use?? It’s a trend that is insanely common.
I've tried 2 different cups and they both were uncomfortable and leaked. How do you find the right one without just wasting a bunch of money? I really want to use these I just can't afford to buy 20 different kinds before finding one that works.
I wonder, since testing them out is a necessity, what ca we do to all of the other ones we're not gonna use? is there a sterilization central where they could be reused by someone else safely?
Hi! Thank you! Your videos help me out so much! I was wondering if there is a certain brand you would recommend for people who’ve just begun menstruation
I'd recommend a pad if you are quite young, and a tampons for whatever age and when/if you're like 12 even, I think you could use a disc, I really recommend discs, if you do it right, then you shouldn't be able to rlly feel it, if you are using a disc, make sure you measure your cervix to know what size to use, there will be tutorials on how to measure your cervix and how to insert your disc, and with discs, when inserting, angle it towards your tail bone so it can really go as far as it needs to (as far as you can get it) and remebr when you angle it, make sure it it gets tucked in at your bone at the end of the cervix and at the front, make sure you push it up, so there will be no leak good luck
Ok but which one for a 30-something with ...erm... "small" bits, heavy periods, and endometriosis adhesions? I've never been successful with tampons, but - curiosity has me wondering avout the cups and discs. 😅🙈
I started with a meluna cup at age 16! It's relatively small and the standard firmness worked well for me, but they also have softer and firmer. Would recommend as a starter cup, especially with the ring shaped stem which makes it super easy to grab to remove!
Weird question, I just got my period and I don’t know how to use that rubber cup thingy like the first thing you showed if anyone knows how to pls tell me
Hello! I know this video isn't about this, but I wanted to ask you something. Does a menstrual disc expose the blood to more oxygen than a cup since it doesn't suction? I'm about to try a disc for the first time and want to know as much as I can about it. Also tbh I got a little freaked out about TSS so this is coming a little bit from paranoia
@Bee It creates a more favourable environment for bacteria when there's exposure to oxygen AND carbon dioxide (idk what levels though). And the "period blood smell" comes from the blood being exposed to the air for a long period of time, which happens with pads, but not with cups apparently. So I was wondering about discs
tss is VERY rare and your chances of getting it with a tampon are WAY higher that with a cup or disc. so fear not.(ur chances are still VERY VERY VERY slim with a tampon just change it regularly. and for a disc or cup if you aren’t comfortable with doing a full 12 hours you can always take it out every 6-8 hours if that makes you more comfortable.)
I've used both disc and cups for years so I think my opinions of them both might really help you out. Disc's are very comfortable and easy to use. I like the fact that unlike menstrual cups you don't have to completely remove the disc to empty the contents out. All you have to do is slightly tug on the disc with your finger leaving a small gap for the blood to come out or push a little harder when you're emptying out your bladder while using the toilet. Menstrual cups are awesome too. Again extremely comfortable and easy to use. Unlike disc's, with menstrual cups you have to always make sure the cup is fully open by using your finger or fingers to fill around the cup bc if not, you without a doubt are going to have leaks and nobody wants that. I notice menstrual cups seem to stay in place for me all day whereas disc will naturally leak a little if my bladder or the disc is too full which I don't like. Also, if I'm very active or pushing on my uterine walls too hard, I noticed the disc tends to leak which again, I don't like. I can't stand when leaks happen bc who wants blood to be in their underwear or pants. I also, can go for long periods of time without emptying out the menstrual cup. 12 hours and more to be exact but I wouldn't go longer than 12 hours bc most companies don't recommend that as the risk for tss becomes higher the longer you leave it in for. But yeah just to give you an overall review. Menstrual cups are my favorite!!!! Bc .... they leak less, and I can leave them in for longer periods of time without emptying them. Again, 12 hours to be exact even on my heaviest days which usually are the first 2 to 3 days of when my period begins. Disc come second in my opinion bc they are easy to use. However, they do tend to leak more often depending on if my bladder is really full, I'm really active or the disc is too full of blood. I'll let you decide which one is best for you based off of the opinions and examples I gave. Like I said they see both pretty cool. Each one has its own pros and cons just depends on I guess your body type and the kind of lifestyle you live. If you live a very active life or work long periods of time like 8 plus more hours at work, I'd recommend the merula os cup bc it's extremely comfortable for most to all body types, easy to use, and can be left in for probably your whole shift as you more than likely won't fill the cup up all the way but again that depends on how much you bleed. I'd say my period is pretty moderate so I don't bleed to much or too little either. I'm kind of right there in the middle but I'd say the first couple days of my period are for sure HEAVY. I USED TO GO THROUGH tampons every couple of hours bc they couldnt really support the weight of my flow that well
I have a high cervix as well. I recently ordered a Lumma disc, size "High". That is the largest size they have and it works perfect for me! Tucks right behind my pubic bone which allows it to stay near the front for me to be able to reach it so conveniently. I have also tried the Diva cup large & the Enna cup medium. The Diva cup was way to big, too hard and was very difficult to pullt out because it would move way up and no way for me to reach it. The Enna cup was nice and made it mucb easier to slowly guide the cup back down to a point for me to grab the secure stem to pull out, but it was difficult to get it to initially open when insurted, and the suction from these cups make it so difficult to remove with a high cervix. I have been absolutely blown away my the Lumma disc. I tend to have a rather heavy flow and it's been in for hours with no leaks. I can't even feel it at all. I could feel the pressure from the cups and sometimes would make cramping worse. I am absolutely a disc girl from now on, screw suction cups! lol I hope I helped someone, but I know we are all built different. Give dsics a try if you have high cevrvix. I can actually reach it no prob! I'd like to try the Hello disc next, it looks very convenient and I may not actually need a string at all given where a disc naturally sits.
You're supposed to reuse it so in the long run it's way cheaper than single use period products??? They can last for up to 10 years. Also you could've been sore because you needed lube to insert it.
You could've gotten the wrong size or inserted it wrong, also discs are reusable so next time, try getting a different size after measuring your cervix and then try it out, hope this helps
NONE- IMO Do whatever you wish, try, buy, throw money & these things in the trash. Save your $$ and go classic. Pads first, then when you're ready tampons. Then, maybe these cups, but I do not recommend them. Maybe to 1 in 100 girls this works for, but not the average. The companies just want your $
You realize you end up spending more on pads and tampons in your lifetime than with cups or disks? Like I understand if you don’t wanna use them but saying the company only wants your money is stupid when they make less of you in their lifetime compared to tampon and pad companies.
Buying pads and tampons every period for 30-40 years is so much more expensive than a reusable cup, you realize that, right? Like this is a one time purchase.
Its a popular sound if you didnt hear the guy says "design choices" not "period products" they probably chose this sound because it was popular and it fits with the idea of the video, what type of period products the person filming likes
You might need a different shape or size, or maybe just an adjustment to your insertion method. There are some great menstrual cup “quizzes” online that help pair you up with the cup(s) that should fit your body best.
I’m in a country where I can only buy like one type and brand of cup. No disks or anything. Not to mention ordering in is to expensive because of exchange rates and shipping. 😢
😢 know how you feel. Menstrual discs (one brand only) came to our shelves two years before I started menopause- best buy ever, and I finally found a cup (also one brand only) literally a week before my very last period ever. Hope you will have better luck🤞
@@twistedaraI live in Barbados and it’s the same here, sometimes it’s not even worth it to order in if you don’t have a friend visiting the island because then sometimes you end up paying more to get the product from customs than it cost to actually buy it in the first place.
i wanna try a disc, i have the clear “i hate this” one (diva cup) but it’s so uncomfy and always leaks now idk if i’m doing something wrong or if i just need to try something different. i switched back to tampons after almost a year and it sucks but i just gave up on the diva cup 😭 it rarrrrely would last more than a couple hours before it would leak or just be so uncomfortable
that’s the one i have too but idk why it doesn’t work for me, it’s always so uncomfy and leaks. i think i just need something different for my body tho but idkkkk😭😭 i switched back to tampons because i just don’t know but maybe i’ll try a disc
I think they are unbranded and/or unregulated. If I am right: they can be dangerous, the material is not regulated, or if they are toxic or if they have harmful chemicals or if they deform quickly or deform when sterilized, etc.
idk but i’m pretty sure the clear one is a diva cup because that’s what i have. I stopped using it because i couldn’t get it to not leak or be super uncomfortable :/ idk if it was a me problem tho like maybe i was doing something wrong? but month after month i would struggle so i just gave up and went back to tampons. i really want to find a cup that works for me tho 😭
Truly, Merula OS is growing on me. Femmycycle had major suction issues. It was softer, YES, and my cramps weren’t as bad. But I’d rather not have my organs sucked until Dr Jones decides I don’t need them anymore. I’m so intrigued by the Hello Disc! ❤😊
The merula cup is my fave. I'm on my second one by them since I thew out my first one. I had the orange color but I now own the clear one. By far the best cup experience I've ever had. I noticed I seem to prefer cups without suction holes bc I find it annoying when little blood clots get stuck in them bc not everywhere you go are you going to have access to a sink that you can rinse your suction holes out in privately without other peoole staring at you or finding it disgusting
Sorry but.......how does a MAN know about "mooncups" ? Unless he is a gynecologist. How did he use it ? 😂 I personally never used a mooncup....rather tampons/sanitary towels.
Don't get anything that doesn't have a long string or a loop that you can put a finger through to get out. Because I really don't know why they think it's okay to attach that little tiny little piece of something that I'm supposed to be able to grab onto with the tips my finger slippery with blood
FUCKING HATE DIVA CUPS! WHY ARE THEY EVERYWHERE. i lost my m. cup and bought one as a temporary replacement.. i could see people never trying again after that what a god awful experience.
I got the smaller formoonsa disc. But is it supposed to be slightly collapsed? The part that catches the blood is kinda smooshed (I’m trying my best to explain it)
I heard a guy's voice and it threw me off for a second then I realized it's a voice over thing lmao

Tucks right behind my pubic bone which allows it to stay near the front for me to be able to reach it so conveniently. I have also tried the Diva cup large & the Enna cup medium. The Diva cup was way to big, too hard and was very difficult to pullt out because it would move way up and no way for me to reach it. The Enna cup was nice and made it mucb easier to slowly guide the cup back down to a point for me to grab the secure stem to pull out, but it was difficult to get it to initially open when insurted, and the suction from these cups make it so difficult to remove with a high cervix. I have been absolutely blown away my the Lumma disc. I tend to have a rather heavy flow and it's been in for hours with no leaks. I can't even feel it at all. I could feel the pressure from the cups and sometimes would make cramping worse. I am absolutely a disc girl from now on, screw suction cups! lol I hope I helped someone, but I know we are all built different. Give dsics a try if you have high cevrvix. I can actually reach it no prob! I'd like to try the Hello disc next, it looks very convenient and I may not actually need a string at all given where a disc naturally sits.
Is that a voice filter orr..?
I think it's just an audio clip that people repurpose for rating stuff, I've heard it before in other contexts
how tf do you use those
What is this for
Who is what .?
is it ok for like 15 year olds to use m-cups
I hate the Salt Cup
I was sore for days after using it 😭😭😭
Also, the cost 😤😤😤
Especially I have had to throw it out.
You're supposed to reuse it so in the long run it's way cheaper than single use period products??? They can last for up to 10 years. Also you could've been sore because you needed lube to insert it.
Really? I had a great experience with them. Maybe you accidentally got the wrong size?
@@us3rno7f0und same
You could've gotten the wrong size or inserted it wrong, also discs are reusable so next time, try getting a different size after measuring your cervix and then try it out, hope this helps
Throwing it out was probably on account of it hurting, not the assumption it was meant to be single-use
I completely disagree with you on the femy cycle. It is my favorite cup
Oh it's a voice over. I'm sitting here like,
"Sir, WHERE TF are you putting these?"
How many periods have you had 😂
It’s weird hearing this from what sounds like a male voice. Why would a man care. I know it’s just a voice over but still.
Why is a man rating period products? How is this useful?
I had an allergic reaction to a Dixie cup and I have been so scared to use cups ever since 🥲
How come a male is voicing this?
Could possibly be a transgender man who still has periods.
It’s a popular sound but trans men do exist
The channel is from a girl, I think she just used the audio from other video (?)
A man's voice suggests a man's gonna use it?
I refuse to stick anything up inside. The thought makes me uncomfortable. Tampons also no. I can see the huge benefits of these, but I'm not a fan .
You can try menstrual underwear
NONE- IMO
Do whatever you wish, try, buy, throw money & these things in the trash. Save your $$ and go classic. Pads first, then when you're ready tampons. Then, maybe these cups, but I do not recommend them. Maybe to 1 in 100 girls this works for, but not the average. The companies just want your $
You realize you end up spending more on pads and tampons in your lifetime than with cups or disks? Like I understand if you don’t wanna use them but saying the company only wants your money is stupid when they make less of you in their lifetime compared to tampon and pad companies.
Buying pads and tampons every period for 30-40 years is so much more expensive than a reusable cup, you realize that, right? Like this is a one time purchase.
Why is a man talking about these?????
Ok wait....why is a MALE reviewing these like wth?!?! If this is a female with a deep voice...my apologies
It’s an audio but trans men are a thing
Bro you are a man
Why use a guy voice over?
Its a popular sound if you didnt hear the guy says "design choices" not "period products" they probably chose this sound because it was popular and it fits with the idea of the video, what type of period products the person filming likes
I this a bloke? No wonder he hates them 😂
Its a popular sound if you didnt hear the guy says "design choices" not "period products"
Bro I just tried a menstrual cup and it felt like I was tearing my insides open just to make it fit 😭
You might need a different shape or size, or maybe just an adjustment to your insertion method. There are some great menstrual cup “quizzes” online that help pair you up with the cup(s) that should fit your body best.
I don't care about a man's opinion on things that don't concern him at all
I was so confused by the voice of a man!!!
Its a popular sound if you didnt hear the guy says "design choices" not "period products"
Why is that a man voicing? That is very uncomfortable for women to hear when they come here for a safe place.
It's a tiktok audio, not her actual voice
I’m in a country where I can only buy like one type and brand of cup. No disks or anything. Not to mention ordering in is to expensive because of exchange rates and shipping. 😢
Omg I feel you
I wait a lot for have my menstrual cup until a brand started on my country, is the only one, no disk or something
Where do you live
😢 know how you feel. Menstrual discs (one brand only) came to our shelves two years before I started menopause- best buy ever, and I finally found a cup (also one brand only) literally a week before my very last period ever. Hope you will have better luck🤞
Nobody has friends in other countries that can mail them one? I mean hell, I don't so I know a lot of people don't. But I would do that for you.
@@twistedaraI live in Barbados and it’s the same here, sometimes it’s not even worth it to order in if you don’t have a friend visiting the island because then sometimes you end up paying more to get the product from customs than it cost to actually buy it in the first place.
“I hate this” works for me the best, the blue one has the firmness i need and open straight up in my coochie. I havent tried a disc yet tho..
It's an opinion, so it's gonna be different for everyone
Exactly, I use Dr. Amgenic and its perfect
i wanna try a disc, i have the clear “i hate this” one (diva cup) but it’s so uncomfy and always leaks now idk if i’m doing something wrong or if i just need to try something different. i switched back to tampons after almost a year and it sucks but i just gave up on the diva cup 😭 it rarrrrely would last more than a couple hours before it would leak or just be so uncomfortable
The clear one that’s open in the “i hate these” one is the one I have and I love it actually.
Everyone’s body’s are different! ❤
that’s the one i have too but idk why it doesn’t work for me, it’s always so uncomfy and leaks. i think i just need something different for my body tho but idkkkk😭😭 i switched back to tampons because i just don’t know but maybe i’ll try a disc
Thats the one i have too, it worked fine for me just tried it for the first time last night. Switched to a different one today and instant cramping.
Which ones are the “I hate these”?
Dropshipping cups
@@gunjanvyas9065 what does that mean? (Just because they are in bags? Or why? I'd like to know)
I think they are unbranded and/or unregulated. If I am right: they can be dangerous, the material is not regulated, or if they are toxic or if they have harmful chemicals or if they deform quickly or deform when sterilized, etc.
idk but i’m pretty sure the clear one is a diva cup because that’s what i have. I stopped using it because i couldn’t get it to not leak or be super uncomfortable :/ idk if it was a me problem tho like maybe i was doing something wrong? but month after month i would struggle so i just gave up and went back to tampons. i really want to find a cup that works for me tho 😭
Truly, Merula OS is growing on me. Femmycycle had major suction issues. It was softer, YES, and my cramps weren’t as bad. But I’d rather not have my organs sucked until Dr Jones decides I don’t need them anymore. I’m so intrigued by the Hello Disc! ❤😊
It's scary how much suction there is.
Was this a disc or a cup? Cuz discs aren't meant to suction
The merula cup is my fave. I'm on my second one by them since I thew out my first one. I had the orange color but I now own the clear one. By far the best cup experience I've ever had. I noticed I seem to prefer cups without suction holes bc I find it annoying when little blood clots get stuck in them bc not everywhere you go are you going to have access to a sink that you can rinse your suction holes out in privately without other peoole staring at you or finding it disgusting
Can you give me a firmness rate on the super jennie vs the hello disc?
Why not Pixie?
Do you have a video about the ones you hate? Im curious to hear why 🥲🌸
Sorry but.......how does a MAN know about "mooncups" ? Unless he is a gynecologist. How did he use it ? 😂 I personally never used a mooncup....rather tampons/sanitary towels.
It's a girl it's just a voice-over
Thanks for helping me soo much in my first year !!!!
The male voice over 😂😅 I was like, oh no the men are bleeding too 😂😂😂😂😂 somebody get him a doctor
How come a no on the pixie cup?
I think it might be a generic/copy cat brand.
@@girlgreenivy Oh most definitely. And they change their cup designs all the time based on the newest copycat designs
I’d also check the 1 star reviews for another reason. Some ppl are def not ok with mixing these two things 🤷🏼♀️
@@PeriodNirvana Whoa a Bible verse engraved in the cup :O
UHHHH HOW DOES THAT GO IN YOU HOW THAT SHIT MUST HURT IF YOU HAVE NEVER DONE “IT”
Don't get why you would have a opinion if your a guy you wouldn't know crap about having a period
it's a voiceover thingg the recorder isn't a guy
Don't get anything that doesn't have a long string or a loop that you can put a finger through to get out. Because I really don't know why they think it's okay to attach that little tiny little piece of something that I'm supposed to be able to grab onto with the tips my finger slippery with blood
FUCKING HATE DIVA CUPS! WHY ARE THEY EVERYWHERE. i lost my m. cup and bought one as a temporary replacement.. i could see people never trying again after that what a god awful experience.
which one would you reccomend...
Wait but it doesn't matter because you won't use it ... men don't have periods
It's a damn voiceovertt
GUYS ITS A SOUND IM ASSUMING THE PERSON THAT FILMED THIS IS NOT A MAN
I was confused, like "do you even use these?" 😅
Trans masculine people can have periods fyi
@@forest_green ok
it's a popular audio, not OP's actual voice
I got the smaller formoonsa disc. But is it supposed to be slightly collapsed? The part that catches the blood is kinda smooshed (I’m trying my best to explain it)
Reasons to why not?
If you're strictly talking about designs then sure, femmycycle looks weird but it's hands down the only cup I trust
Is the diva cup good?
I've used it for five years so... yes. It's a cup that works well for most people.
Ein Mann kann das doch gar nicht beurteilen oder?
Uhhh ok 😮
What is this
