Diva Cup Review

Diva CupDisclaimer: This post is for the ladies and may not be suitable to read while eating

I started using the Diva Cup back in 2006. I was browsing a natural hair care forum (nappturality.com) and came across a post about it. I was intrigued because I had never heard of anything like it. But several ladies in the forum swore by it. It’s a sizable investment of about $30 for a feminine hygiene product, but it’s reusable and will last for years. I’ve had mine since ’06 and it’s still yet holding on.

I feel comfortable recommending it for adult women and not pre-teens & teens, simply because it is inserted into the vagina and parental discretion seems appropriate. It comes is 2 different sizes. Size 1 is for women under 30 who have not had children. Size 2 is for any woman who has had children or over 30.

I use my Diva Cup monthly and seldom rely on any other method of feminine hygiene protection during my cycle. I even used it when I suffered from fibroids and didn’t have any issues.

Pros:

  • Reusable – green product, great for the environment
  • Saves money – no more pad & tampon purchases
  • Can be emptied as little as twice a day
  • Minimizes odor during your cycle
  • Doesn’t leak when properly inserted
  • Great for water activities
  • No unsightly strings
  • No bulky feeling in your underpants
  • Comes in 2 sizes

Cons:

  • Can be tricky to learn how to insert
  • Awkward to empty & clean if no sink available in the stall of a public restroom
  • The stem can be uncomfortable, I cut mine way down

Bottom line: You should give it a try

My tips for successful use:

  • Read the directions!
  • Make sure the cup is fully open after insertion & rotate ½ turn in either direction to ensure placement

Yay! Now we can really be happy about our periods ☺For more information, check out The Diva Cup website. If you’ve tried it already or plan to try it soon, let me know what you think down in the comments.
