Lunette Menstrual Cup - Reusable Period Cup – Medical-Grade Silicone

I really wanted to like this but it just did not work for me. It leaked significantly each time I tried and the pressure was uncomfortable. I did try adjusting but to no avail. Was very tricky getting it in place and messy when it came out.

Regarding a menstrual cup in general: I want to shout from the rooftops about how amazing this is! For the first time since I hit puberty, I don't have any worries about my period. It took a few tries to really get the hang of inserting and removing the cup, and it required a new familiarity with my own anatomy, but it went much better than I expected. I've found the punch-down fold works the best for me and opens consistently without anything more than wiggling the bottom of the cup. It typically takes a bit of pushing with my pelvic floor muscles to get the cup into a position where I can get a good grip to break the seal and remove it, but after a bit of practice I can do it fairly quickly. I also find I have to fold the cup a bit in order to pull it out comfortably - once I have the bottom pinched and the seal broken, I work it down to where I can use my pointer and middle fingers to wrap the bottom of the cup around my thumb on the other side, a bit like the "C" or "U" fold. Fair warning: you get a good look at the fluids whenever you empty the cup. If you're squeamish, it can be pretty gross, but I think it's really cool to be able to get an accurate measurement of exactly how much is coming out. When I first heard about menstrual cups, I didn't think I could ever use one; I just wasn't that comfortable with my own anatomy, and the idea of having to reach two fingers inside to remove it was enough to keep me from trying it. However, after doing a lot of research, I decided it was worth a try; if it was really that bad, all these other women wouldn't be raving about theirs! It took me two days to be comfortable with using it, and with more and more practice I'm taking less time to remove, empty, and reinsert it. For all you girls/women out there who are nervous about giving it a try, you can do it! Regarding the Lunette Cup specifically: I have not tried other menstrual cups, but I went with the Lunette because I couldn't find any complaints about it, unlike the Diva Cup. My cervix is at an average depth - on the first day of my period, I can feel it with the tip of my middle finger just before my second knuckle reaches my vaginal opening (Seriously, ladies, find your cervix! I was intimidated, but it was easy). I have no trouble getting a good seal with the Lunette Cup, and it sits comfortably with the base of the cup (where it meets the stem) tucked just behind my pubic bone. I don't have any desire to remove the stem on this cup; it is soft and flexible, and I only feel it for a few minutes after insertion or after using the restroom, and it isn't much more noticeable than a tampon string. The ribs/rings at the base of the cup make removal very easy; without them, the silicone would likely be too slippery to get a good grip, making removal tricky. I have heard that the suction holes around the rim of the Lunette are larger than those on other brands, and I have never had an issue with them clogging; they clear without any effort when I rinse the cup in the sink. I do not know how the stiffness of the silicone for this cup compares to that for others, but I have no issue keeping the cup folded while I insert it, and it always pops open from a punch-down fold without any problems. Final thoughts: I'm a believer! I will be hard-pressed to go back to pads or tampons for very long, if at all. If you're curious or have reservations of your own, please ask me questions! (Almost) nothing is too personal!

La coppetta arriva munita di libretto con istruzioni in inglese e sacchetto di stoffa per contenere la coppetta tra un utilizzo e l'altro. Ho appena iniziato ad usarla (scrivo la recensione nel primo giorno di mestruazioni). L'ho acquistata sotto consiglio personalizzato ricevuto su un gruppo Facebook che consiglio a chiunque voglia acquistare la coppetta: ogni marca ha delle proprietà che la rendono inadatta ad alcune persone. Nel mio caso la coppetta risulta semplice da inserire in quanto scattante ma non troppo rigida. Anche toglierla è meno difficile di ciò che pensavo. Non so se la mia recensione cambierà in futuro ma per il momento è adatta (meno di 30 anni, zero figli e con pavimento pelvico tonico). Ripeto, effettuate il test nei gruppi Facebook dedicati alla coppetta. Questa in particolare è consigliata per chi ha una cervice non troppo alta (altrimenti è scomoda da estrarre).

السيليكون سميك للغاية كان يشكل صعوبة لي في الادخال والاخراج بالذات المني كثير لكنه ما كان يسرب ابدًا وايضًا ال stem سميكه ما ناسبني تالمت اكثر منه مره وانا استخدمه مهما جربت طبقات جديدة و وضعيات كنت اخذ وقت طويل وانا اتعامل معاه وكنت كل مره اتالم، واحس بوجودة بداخلي وهو شعور مهو حلو، اكواب الحيض مو مفترض تكون مؤلمة ابحثو عن اكواب تلائمكم وفيه خيارات تناسب كل مراة

Pros: - Great material. - Comfortable. - Suction is fine. - Cleaning is easy. - Once inside, you would forget it's there. - No leakage issues, usually. Cons: - Leaks in 4-5 hours on my heaviest flow days, maybe I need Lunnette Model 2 for those days or maybe empty it even more frequently on those days.
