5.0 out of 5 stars Why Didn’t I Try This Sooner?!
Okay I’m about to get real and graphic so if you can’t handle what I’m about to share, skip this review.I’m 5’4’’ and morbidly obese at about 330 pounds. I would shop for my wallet killers aka pads and tampons down the same aisle when I need to replenish. I kept looking at the Diva Cup on the shelf and was turned off by the price. That’s what gets me...the price. Was I that willing to fork over a ridiculous amount of money for something that’s supposed to save me so much more the rest of my life? No lol! Money is too tight these days.So I broke down and asked in a makeup group I’m in on Facebook about the Diva Cup and what their thoughts were on it. A vast, large majority said it was best thing they ever had. Which is exactly what I wanted to hear. I needed to hear the support whether it was good or bad. So I ordered this at the tail end of my period so it’s not like I had a lot of “obstacles” in the way trying this out.I’m a very huge woman so I found that doing the trifold method versus just folding the cup over once worked best for me. I relaxed my muscles and just pretended like it was a tampon I’m inserting only it’s a purple silicone funnel lol! I tried inserting standing up and it just wasn’t working for me. I did wayyyyy better sitting down on the toilet which is best when you have to take it out anyway. I almost had it perfectly placed the first time inserting it. Reading the directions first put me at ease. Little things like you can pee with it in and not to use it for post natal bleeding. It was nice to read the small pamphlet for helpful tips, advice and how to take care of your menstrual cup. It felt funny at first and then I made myself move around more. I sat down on the sofa and I felt the cup go up more and I felt even more comfortable. One thing’s for sure, you can’t be afraid to get friendly with your “southern territory” so that you can make sure the cup is positioned like it should. Don’t be afraid to push the cup up higher. If you feel like something is stuck down below, it’s probably not in right. When it feels comfy, you’ll know. Some will feel it and others won’t. For me, I know it’s there and yes I feel it but it’s not an annoyance. I never felt uncomfortable to the point I need to adjust it.For those of you that work a lot, this cup is supposed to serve no leak protection for up to 12 hours and it’s true. I get up in the morning and unplug to shower and sanitize my cup. I pop it in and although it’s supposed to be leak free protection, there’s nothing wrong with putting on a panty liner for insurance. So that’s what I do. I go to work as normal and by the time I get home, I unplug, clean, sanitize and shower. I’m usually at my heaviest on day 2-3 and I go 5 days max when I’m on my cycle on average. I work at a daycare (for now....last day is in three days and then I’m going to a desk job!). Working with kids you’re up and down, constantly moving.I wore a panty liner and the Pixie Cup today and there was no leaking whatsoever and no discomfort of any kind. No smells. No blood on my underwear. No tampon in sight. No long Infinity pads the size of an eagle’s wing span. Being so big is so tough. I’ll have a heavy cycle and I’ll wear the Super absorbency tampon with a Heavy or Overnight absorbency Always Infinity pad at the same time. And having a big backside it just sucks up my underwear and then blood can easily got up the crack of my butt no matter what kind of menstrual armor I put on and I have to go to the bathroom just to wipe myself up. Granted, I wear black pants everyday, but blood can smell and no one is gonna tell me I smell but they might if I’m not around. Or I go to the bathroom and sit down on the toilet and there’s blood on the back part of the toilet. So I wipe the blood away and Lysol the toilet until it’s dead and wipe it down like I’m getting paid for it. I hated how I would smell and I was changing my pads and tampons.This Pixie Cup has given me peace of mind and freedom. For once, something makes me feel good about myself. Maybe once I get this weight loss surgery next year I’ll be even more confident in my body and struggle less with inserting this Pixie Cup. We have a 9 year old and 2 year old, both girls. So maybe when that time of the month starts for them, it might be something for them to consider if they’re comfy with it and save some money and protect their bodies in the long run. It’s important that they make their own choices when it comes to what they wanna do with the feminine products they use. Since I’m now educated in the benefits of a menstrual cup, not just for saving money, but for better health practices too, it’s another option for our daughters to consider when that time comes for them.Another important thing I was worried about is this thing disappearing into my body and I never see it again. For those of you that have had a child, push like you’re pushing a baby out and you’ll see the end of the cup and remove it. For those of you who haven’t had a baby, push as if you’re trying to pee or like your trying to have a bowel movement. I always wondered that if I shove this thing up there, will it want me to retrieve it haha. Keep in mind I’m a very big woman so when I sit down, that Tsumani-like force of my butt pressing against any surface is going to move things North, South, East and West I ain’t lying. And I still was able to get it out.So yes, I’m impressed with this, told my mom about my experience and how much I liked it. She didn’t even know something like this existed even though it’s been out for a long time now. I explained to her how it’s used, the benefits, etc. She wish she had it when she started her cycle.As far as the cleansing wipes, they’re good and if you wanna go cheaper, you can always have a small bathroom clutch bag and store some unscented baby wipes in a zip lock or get a travel sized pack of wipes and store it inside of your bathroom clutch so that you can easily clean your cup in the bathroom if you’re out in public or at your place of business. In case you might drop your cup in the toilet, get a backup cup or have a backup pad or two just to keep yourself covered until you can properly sanitize it once you get home. I even used Vagisil to clean my Pixie Cup and very hot water. I’m cheap, I try to use what I have before spending a ton of money right away.Hope this review helped!
5.0 out of 5 stars Best cup I’ve had!
This is my third different cup and I’m so glad I decided to switch to this one. I had the original diva cup pre-pregnancy for like seven years. In between pregnancies, I elected to not use the cup cause I wasn’t sure if my original sized diva cup would work and I didn’t have the energy to experiment (also cause my second pregnancy came pretty quickly). Post second pregnancy, I bought an off brand one that was cheap and came with two sizes. I quickly realized that the big one was just too big (I had a c-section both pregnancies, so all the sizes are off since the advice is to size up if you had natural birth). The smaller one worked fine, but it was hard to remove and caused a little discomfort during insertion and removal even with lubricant. So I jumped in and ordered the SMALL with pixie. I liked that there is more than just two sizes and that they were willing to make an exchange if the size doesn’t work out. When I first got my cup, I was worried, it’s the smallest non teen one and it still looked bigger than the off brand one I use. But!!! Even though it’s a tad bigger, it’s a lot softer! It went in fine with very little lubrication, and even more so, came out easier cause of the shape of the stem! It didn’t hurt going in our out since it’s so soft, and it did the job perfectly! I’m ordering a second one so I can use cups exclusively! And yes, I recommend having two so you can wash and sanitize one while wearing the other one.
5.0 out of 5 stars YOU’LL NEVER GO BACK!
After years of throwing money in the trash (literally) using tampons and pads, I finally decided to try out the Pixie Cup.This is my first cycle using it, and truly, I don’t know why it took me so long to make the switch! It was SO easy to insert, position, and remove. The removal was the hardest part for me, you really have to break the suction before you try to remove it! Once I figured that out, it was a breeze.I’ve always had a heavy flow and when I used tampons, I would easily bleed through within 2 hours on the first and second day. I ordered the large and never even came close to filling it! I asked them to send me a smaller size. I heard back from the support team within an hour and they had a smaller size shipped to me— excellent customer service! I believe my flow has lighten since using the Pixie Cup because I’m no longer shoving toxic chemicals up my v@gina (such is the case with tampons and pads).If I haven’t already convinced you, let me say it again: make the switch! It is cost effective, less waste, and WAY better for your body!
4.0 out of 5 stars Better with time
When first using/inserting this cup.. it was a NIGHTMARE! The material felt harder/more uncomfortable than my previous pixie cup. It was a learning curve but I worked with it and feel I’ve adjusted. I have to use more lube than I previously used with my other cup to ensure an easier insertion. Still adjusting to it but as I go, it’s getting easier. Day 1, I felt the cup all day and it was uncomfortable. It’s now day 3 and I can slightly feel the stem but it feels better overall. I do enjoy the carrying pouch that allows me to have my cup in its bag as well as my lube next to it.
There is hope!
I have used various cups for years without issue before I knew about this brand. However in recent months I’ve began having issues, struggling to get it in, being in pain when I have got it in and leaking despite being fine fore a while before. Because I don’t usually have issues I was panicking thinking there’s something wrong with me and something was going on down there and that I needed to see a doctor, and it made periods incredibly stressful. However I came across Pixie Cup yesterday and saw all the reviews and figured I’m gunna give it one last go. Praise God! There is hope! It went in like a dream and I’ve not been able to feel it inside at all! It’s brought so much relief knowing I can still use cups. Pixie Cups are slightly different in shape and are not as firm as the ones I’ve ever used, so I am super super happy as I did not at all want to have to go back to pads.
Muy cómoda.
Tacto muy suave. A pesar de ser tamalan XL es muy cómoda de poner y de usar.Perfecta.
Great buy
Love this product. Highly recommend
La más cómoda que he probado
Lo mejor: su capacidad y el "rabito". Las de algunas copas, aunque las cortes, siguen irritando la entrada de la vagina, pero esta es maravillosa. Es una bolita blandita y la copa se inserta, se saca y se abre fácilmente, un acierto completo.La compañía se puso en contacto conmigo para saber cómo había ido todo, estoy ENCANTADA con esta copa
confortevole e facile da togliere
Cercavo una coppetta grande, questa ha funzionato bene (gradirei una taglia ancora più capiente) ed è comodissima da togliere perchè non sfugge
