Intimina Lily Cup Size A - Thin Menstrual Cup, Period Cup with Up to 8 Hours Use

Product Information

For me as a cup user, the Diva Cup is slightly longer than what I need so I trim the stem to use it. The heaviness of your flow and the size of your vagina aren’t correlated, so you may have a small vagina and a heavy flow, for example.

The key is to make the cup small enough that it’s comfortable to insert but not to fold it so intricately that it can’t pop open once it’s inside. Their brand is Intimina and they have two cups, the standard Lily Cup that comes in sizes A and B, and the Lily Cup Compact that also comes in sizes A and B. Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time). With Laselle™ exercisers, you can choose your own weight combinations, and Feminine Moisturizer will help with the insertion. Figuring out if it’s fully open can be tough; some cups you can feel pop open, but depending on your musculature and how forceful that opening is, sometimes you can’t tell.

That being said, a softer cup and rim can be a good thing for women who find a more rigid cup uncomfortable. Most cups have little air holes that are meant to help you more easily “break the seal” on a cup before removing it, but those holes can be difficult to clean. Lily Cup is made out of 100% medical-grade silicone, making it the ultimate reusable menstrual cup and period solution.

It's perfect for those who have a higher cervix or heavier flow while it offers complete comfort all period long. It holds slightly less volume than some of our other picks, so if you have a heavy flow, you might find yourself emptying it more.I had a mooncup but it was soo stiff and the rim made it so painful to remove as its impossible to fold them up as small as you did to put them in, especially with my episiotomy scar after birth of my child 2 years ago I thought id never find a cup for me until i found this one without an outter rim. One thing to think about when it comes to picking a cup size: It’s more important to find a cup that fits you properly than to find a cup that you can wear for the maximum amount of time, or that holds the most blood. It’s more of an inconvenience—if you pull your IUD out by accident, you then have to make an appointment to have it reinserted. But most cups were easy to insert and remove, and once inserted, they opened up without much trouble.

The stem should never irritate your vaginal canal, and it definitely shouldn’t stick out of your vagina. As a result, a medical model can work for illustrating how a cup works, but because the model is a single, set size, many cups can’t open up inside because the model can’t stretch to accommodate them. But inevitably all menstrual cup users find themselves in some public bathroom stall dumping menstrual blood down the toilet.Many of them had the same problem that the commercial versions did, as it was impossible to see what was going on inside the various tubes.

If you like the tidiness of a tampon but want to find an alternative option that is more environmentally friendly and creates less waste, a menstrual cup could be the solution for you. A menstrual cup to reduce both your period's overall carbon footprint and your contribution to the 20 billion pads, tampons, and applicators that will likely be dumped in North American landfills in 2019.

To evaluate this factor as objectively as possible, we had to figure out a way to simulate a vagina. The first few times you change it, you might want to do that where you don’t worry about leaving it like there was a serial killer in there,” said Gunter.
