I'm new to this community but I've been reading a lot because I just recently got the lily cup one so I don't have to buy pads during college. To give some information about me, I'm almost 18, a virgin, and I've yet to put a tampon in without feeling it so I wear pads. So I tried to put the lily cup one in but it physically wouldn't go in. I was ( Read more... )

Hey Everyone! I've been lurking around this community for a few months, and I've decided to get my friend to pick up a cup for me when she visits the US. Because I'm only 13 and have got parents who do not allow me to use tampons and cups, I am unable to order online for a cup, and the only cup my friend has found available in America is the ( Read more... )

Hey All! :D

I wanted to give an update on MC journey for all the newbies who are having difficulties to show it IS possible to find your Goldilocks! Well about 2 years ago I made this post: Click Here! In short, a high cervix & a short menstrual cups didn't mix well when it came to removal >.< It was so hard to reach, to break the seal, that I ( Read more... )

I recently got my first menstrual cup, a Lily Cup size A, and I'm currently on my first period using it. I've got insertion down at this point, but it still usually takes me forever to get it out. Does anyone have any tips for removal when I can only comfortably get one finger any appreciable distance into my vagina at once? I can grab the stem ( Read more... )

I'm 13, a virgin(not that it matters that much when I'm talking about a cup size, I guess.), I have a high cervix, and I'm just really tight down there. I just started using my DivaCup (size 1) and I think it might be too big for me, but I don't want to go out and buy another cup and possibly waste another $20 on something that has the same problem ( Read more... )

So I bought a Fleurcup about a month ago and i still can't get it in. I have tried everything, different folds, squatting, kneeling, sitting down, one leg up, in the bath, using a water based lubricant and anything else i could find online. I know for certain my hymen is not blocking my vaginal opening. I knew my cervix was quite high up a few days ( Read more... )

Yeah, I don't know how, just know it did ( Read more... )

I started reading about menstrual cups online a while ago and I thought they sounded great! I hate having to change disposal products every lunch time at school and sanitary towels are quite uncomfortable. I had a few worries and questions though ( Read more... )

Introduction
The cervix is the organ between the uterus and the vagina, and it serves as gate for expelling menstrual fluid (and for letting the baby out during childbirth). This word comes from the Latin word that means neck, and in many languages it's called the neck or mouth of the uterus. You can find out more in Wikipedia, and if you prefer to ( Read more... )
