O/T Mooncup!

[golcarlilly]

Just noticed an advert at the top of the forum for Mooncups - anyone else think they are a bizarre and revolting idea?

 

[Uvlollypop]

its a great idea they have many benefits, you should be some research

My friend uses one and thinks its great as she has very heavy periods and was going through a ton of tampons every month.
I would imagine that it's the sort of thing that once your used to using you'd never turn back.

Im not too keen on the idea myself!!

 

[elmaxie]

I use one and they are great!!

Mst admit I thought it might be a bit revolting but its nothing compared to a skanky tampon or sanitary towel...

And they are good on environment.

I have used mine for near two years and wouldnt go back to tampons if you paid me ever!!!

They are fab, much less scummy than a tampon or towel!!!!

They are the way forward!

 

[BeckyBoo]

I dunno like :s

 

[Spartacus]

good post I have been meaning to ask if anyone uses them and if they are any good. I read up on them and it seems a good idea

i was about to buy one myself, then fell PG, but i think i will definitely get one in the future. After reading up on them they sound great!

 

[golcarlilly]

I would be scared of it coming out I think - I will have a read up on them though, maybe would be ok, just seems weird!

 

[Faerie]

I would like to say that I use one, supporting the environment etc, but they just freak me out.

 

[golcarlilly]

Just read all the info on the site, they still sound scary to me, I would be worried about a few things:
a) seeing my blood in large amounts (would remind me of my m/c I think)
b) getting blood on me/the loo/the floor as I am VERY clumsy!
c) Getting it stuck
d) Leakage

I do agree that they are much better for the environment - I hate the idea of tampons ending up in the sea - gross! but I just don't know if I could give it a go !

I've never tried one, but my friend that does says that you twist something and it uses suction and creates a seal, then you twist it the other way when you want to take it out.

sorry that just made me That is another thing to worry about then what if the suction is too strong
