Pri15: I’ve always thought about trying a cup but actually decided to take the jump and buy one. After trying it I immediately thought why didn’t I do this sooner. I got the hang of it on the first time which is great it’s very simple to use.

AC Georgia: I can’t seem to get it in properly as I can feel it still… probably me being a scaredy cat and not wanting to push it up too high. Will give it another go!

Liz: I don’t have to hold on to dear life on the stem because of the little ridges it has. It’s very very flexible and I love that.

Rumeysa Bodur: This was my first time trying a menstrual cup (picked the mini size despite having relatively heavy flow) and I am very glad that I did give it a try due to the following reasons:

+ On my first day I had to visit a lot of people's houses, and I found it very convenient since I did not have to carry a pad with me and did not have to deal with the trash.
+ The first time inserting was not hard but kept me thinking whether I had inserted correctly. Found out later that if not correctly inserted it can be felt and is therefore easy to tell. To make sure it is correctly inserted just try to pull from the stem softly and if there is resistance, voila, it's well inserted.
+ Taking it out was fairly easy. Just pull a bit from the stem, pinch the bottom, that's it.
+ There was no bad smell and I loved the fact that I am not creating any trash.
[+ I felt like my period ended sooner, not sure if that's a thing.]

And here are some aspects that make me think:

- Although small, (as confirmed by recent study) there is a risk of toxic shock syndrome, which made me a bit uncomfortable.
- I wish there was an easier/better way to clean. I saw that there are...

Shahrzad: Ok so, I looked for a review from someone with 'vaginismus' before I purchased this item but there wasn't any! So I'm writing this review hoping that it would help those suffering from vaginismus. IF YOU HAVE VAGINISMUS go with size Mini! If you find it difficult/impossible to insert the cup, you may want to use a small amount of water based lubricant for insertion (BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE TOO MUCH LUBE because it makes it easier for the cup to move further up once inserted), and then taking it out would be difficult!
The first time using the cup (and I only used it once for 12 hours - wasn't comfy so stopped using it for now) don't leave the cup in for 12 hours before you attempt to take it out! I left it in for 12 hours and it was pushed all the way up when I attempted to take it out! It took me about 30 min to take it out and I was properly panicking. I would recommend taking it out after 5-6 hours the first time you use it. Don't just pull the stem down, grab onto the flexible stem and wiggle it down and when it's down enough for you to grab the base, hold the base and gently take it out (don't forget to take deep breaths during the process and relax)!

Angie RobayoAngie Robayo: I got the size mini. Best purchase ever. I added a picture of how it compares in size to the DivaCup size 1. OrganiCup (mini) is smaller in length and width and it is also much softer/flexible. Definitely recommend. No leaks. No discomfort. Much easier to remove than the Diva. Insertion is always tricky for me, but no more no less than the Diva. Wore it for about 13 hours and did not feel a thing neither did I notice ANY residue. I always had some (but very minor) residue left with the Diva. I may have gotten the wrong Diva size (1) and this may be a better size for me (mini)... however before getting OrganiCup I did a lot of research in regards to size and even Diva size 0 was bigger than the mini OganiCup. OrganiCup is also much softer/flexible, it also has four small holes at the top instead of two... which I wonder if it helps with the suction and the possibility of leakage.

Rohne: So I’m not gonna beat around the bush I’m 19 years old, with no kids, and I am a virgin. This mini cup is so perfect for me:) I like that it’s not long because I do have a low cervix, I found out trying my last cup. My last cup was constantly hurting because it was way too big for me. I also have a moderate to heavy flow and was worried about having to change it a lot but I can work a full shift (heavy lifting bending and on feet constantly) comfortably with no need to change it. It’s almost like it fills up above the cup? When I pull it out the cup is full and a bunch more blood spills out of me as well. Im so thankful I found something with really good suction that I don’t feel. Also looove the grippy handle! My last cup scared me every time because I thought I’d never get it out it kept slipping but the tail grips make it very easy to maneuver. Alsoooo with my last cup I could barely pinch it closed so I love how flexible this is because it makes pinching to remove the suction very easy.

TylerTyler: My first time I used it, and I researched it (and other brands) a TON, was difficult. I knew it would be hard, but I underestimated the difficulty. I tried it for two hours, but first tried over 10 times to figure it out, and then decided to take it out after two hours. Taking it out, was apparently, not well instructed because I went into it with not enough information from the company on how to gently remove it. It hurt a ton to take out, suction pulling on my inner walls and on top of that, an uncomfortable fold from trying to take it out. I wasn’t informed enough on removal, or insertion. I gave up that night and waited till morning to try it again. But I remember the stem was uncomfortable so I cut it, which I hoped I wouldn’t have to do but what was I thinking because everyone has had to do it, and I was very cautious in the past when thinking about it because I didn't want it to get lost, but it wouldn’t happen, little did I know that then. So the next morning I gave it a go, and after 5 tries, I got it confidently in. Wore a pad just in case, and it did leak, but that’s expected for beginners because of little experience beforehand. Then AFTER the second day of...

nix: This is my very first experience with a menstrual cup. I am 4'11 / 170 lbs and don't have any kids yet. I can barely get the mini cup inside. The only way I can get it in properly is to lie down completely flat and spread eagle or to do a sumo wrestler squat/stance. So having said that it's not possible for me to get it in correctly in a regular sized public bathroom stall. Once it is in it works like a charm! I have heavy periods for the first few days and it has to be emptied every 8 hours. Emptying it is tricky to do with out making a complete mess. I have to do kegels to help push it out and get it back in. It works like a charm for light period days. For heavy period days I say where a back up pad just to be safe. Also you can feel when the cup is full inside of you so you'll know when to change it. I really like the fact that it saves money on not having to buy tampons and pads every month and saves time with not having to change your pad / tampon every few hours. I love it and will keep using it as long as I can. Definitely follow directions and sterilize with boiling water ( I do that once a day on my period). I also wash it with gentle soap every time I empty it. I like...
