Me too kumaradosha - how do I make anti-suction holes? - And is it a good idea?
I am so glad I found this forum! I've just been through the same thing as kumaradosha (http://menstrual-cups.livejournal.com/3312416.html) was writing about. Yesterday I put my new Juju up for the first time

This is how I did it:
I placed the cup as a hat on top of my skin tonic, which just fits in size. I used a dermal punch like the one kuradi8 have depicted. I didn't try to make the existing holes bigger as I was afraid that it would not go well. Instead, I made 4 new 2 mm holes. I could reuse the dermal punch.

I have now made some very perfect suction holes. - So far so good ...

Here is a picture of the cup and piercing tool. http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/tibra2014/71607916/260/260_900.jpg
I didn't manage to get a sharp image of one of the holes, but they are absolutely perfect, with no jagged edges. I have placed the new holes in the gaps between each of the four original holes.
I want to emphasize that I have no idea whether it has improved the cup or actually made it worse by possibly increasing the suction. I am hoping that it will allow air into the cup when I squeeze the base of the cup to break the suction seal, but right now I mostly feel like trying a different brand, since I can only find negative references from JuJu users with a high cervix.
