    One time I was on the bus and I was wearing light colored jeans and I already knew I leaked so I tried to use my jacket.... I had to sit in the aisle seat(the outside of the seat spot) and I got up and there was a big red spot! A boy about a year older was sitting next to me so it was embarrassing! He asked me if I needed a pad/tampon and pulled out one of each from his bag and offered them to me... Turns out he has 8 sisters over the age of 10 so he keeps his bag stocked cause he knows how it is!!

    I only have a dad. I got my period the first time when we were at a hotel. I just said " ummm DAD! Somethings happend" he just said " noooooo! Please! God im not ready for this!" 😂 and he went and bought me some pads and when he came back he was like " trust me on this, okay?! Remember i was with your mom since she was 14. Put on your sweatpants, a tank top and your flip flops and lets go" so then he took me to the store and bought $38 on chocolate, gummy candy and ice cream for the both of us and then pizza. Mind you i was 10 and he was 27.

    I got my first in my favorite teachers class while I was getting help after school. I got up to go to the bathroom and we both noticed red on the chair and I got really confused but then it hit me that I got it. The next thing I knew my teacher went to her purse and got me a pad. When I got back to the room I had tears In my eyes and was apologizing profusely (she kept telling me it was no big problem and that I should not feel bad) and then she gave me a hug and called my parents. It was embarrassing but I still love that teacher

    I was around 12 when I first had my period. The day before it happened, I had a dream that I was laying on my bed watching Full House when I would notice that I started. Well I stayed home from school the next day because I was sick and y'all, I was laying in bed watching Full House when my period was like, "Hiiiiii." It was like a real life episode of That's So Raven. It was nuts.

    @despaahana 7 років тому +193

    the diva cup stays secure because of suction. fold it to get it in and let it unfold. adjust you get a good seal, this part can take practice, and you're good till you can empty it. I wouldn't try to do this in a bathroom that you have to share the sink. to take the cup out you have to break the seal otherwise the suction only gets stronger the more you pull. that hurts. super reusable but does have a learning curve getting it in right and taking it out.

Walk in the store and will gladly buy a sole box of tampons even with the cashier being a dude or just grab my tampon from my purse and walk to the bathroom in front of people; it's whatever.

I chickened out and asked one of my older friends to give me tampons. That went on for almost 7 months, and we were acting like it was a drug deal. Looking back, that was hilarious.

Then I told my mom to come to the bathroom she came into the bathroom and I told her I seen blood down there and she started crying and I was like "what did I do?" The she said "my baby is growing up." Then I said "what do I do?" She told me we'd buy some pads and I LEGIT thought they were writing pads. I thought to myself "why do I need to write this down?". 😂😂😂😂

And I said "I'm having an issue I need to go" and he said "what?" And I repeated myself a little bit slower and said "I'm having an issue I need to go" and the horror on his face he was like "Oh, yeah you can go" so embarrassing

It honestly gave me control of my life back. It says 12 hours to change, when in reality it's closer to 2 hours at the max for me. It honestly is fantastic and helps with cramps, too. It was super terrifying to use the first time, though. I had to talk myself up in the bathroom for a good 15 minutes, lol

    I got my period at lunch on the day before the last day of school. I was walking back from the microwave when I felt something weird. I sat down and I told my best friend sitting next to me, and she didn’t believe me. Then I started leaking and we both freaked out. We both got up without asking and ran out the door of the cafeteria. We both ran to the bathroom and, of course, neither on of us had a pad/tampon/ literally anything.🤦🏼‍♀️ So I stuck what felt like half a roll of toilet paper in my underwear. My best friend gave me her jacket and I wrapped it around my waist and we ran to the nurse. At this point I was hyperventilating thinking that I was going to die. I had dreaded wearing a pad and swore to myself to never ever use one because it grossed me out. We walked into the nurse’s office, tell her what happened, and she gave me a PAD! I was devastated. As soon as I got home (which was like 8 because I had a pizza party and church after school) I told my mom to buy me tampons or I wasn’t using anything. Luckily I got my way and haven’t used a pad since (except at night, goodness I hate those things). TMI, I know but, it seems fitting 😂

      chelsea maria if you pull them out at an angle no. Be sure to stay relaxed while you are taking the tampon out.

The best tip that I can give is to put it in at an angle and take it out the same way😊

    • @rachelramos6326
      @rachelramos6326 7 років тому +24

      Erin Robinson divacup.com/how-it-works/how-it-works/ Practice really is key. Also there are many types of menstrual cups to choose from. The diva cup may not be the right shape or firmness for everyone.

    • @alcormier90
      @alcormier90 7 років тому +53

      Erin Robinson Essentially you fold it and insert it, then it kinda "pops" open. There's teeny holes at the top near the rim that creates a suction, so it stays in place. Then to remove it, you pinch the bottom to release the suction and pull it out. Then you can dump it out into the toilet and rinse it out or wipe it out with toilet paper or a moist wipe. Then it's good to reinsert.
      That's the super abridged version. Haha How you fold and insert really depends on you and your body. But there's a TON of videos and articles with a lot of really great info and instructions! It can be a little overwhelming and daunting at first. It takes a little practice, and I will say you DEFINITELY have to be/get really comfortable with your body. But I definitely recommend trying it. Once you've got the hang of it, it really makes your periods a lot easier to deal with!

    • @SuperChocolateSwirl
      @SuperChocolateSwirl 7 років тому +38

      They're seriously amazing. The first time you use one it will be scary, and it will probably take a couple tries, but the information that the Diva Cup company provides is actually helpful, so I would recommend getting familiar with it before you start. For insertion they show two fold styles, one that's sort of U-shaped, and one that is more like a cone (hard to describe). Everyone is different, but my preference has been the 2nd version, as it's a little more gradual. Like other people have been saying, to remove it you have to insert a finger to break suction. The last thing I think you need to be aware of is insertion on the first day of your period is almost always a little uncomfortable, but every day afterwards is super easy and I almost forget it's even in there!
      I think ultimately if you are really comfortable with tampons trying a menstrual cup is a great next step. They last a long time and they can be left in for up to 12 hours, which can really ease your worries if you are like me and frequently forget about the 8hr time limit on tampons. It does seem scary, but we were all scared of tampons before we used them, but we got over that and menstrual cups are the same in that way.

      Erin Robinson Essentially you fold it to insert it, then once it is in you can twist it to form a seal and may have to put a finger in to circle the cup and make sure it unfolded. That's really it! It's easy for me to just pull it out and it's very comfortable to wear.

    The diva cup was a LIFESAVER for me. I have very very big periods (I had to wear adult dippers to bed because anything else was just not enough). Although it does have a little learning curve (suction is NOT fun), once i knew how to use it, which took about 2 periods, it was perfect in every way. It never leaked, the period smell was completely gone (!!!!!), and it didn't feel like you had anything at all, so more comfortable than a tampon (cause at least for me, when mine got too soaked they moved around and got uncomfortable). I would just take it out in the shower twice a day (second shower was really quick, just for that purpose and I was good to go).
    Honestly, it's such a life changer. You'll also save soooo much in the long term. 200% would recommend.

    In my religion, girls have the option of having a Womaning ceremony where older bleeding women bestow gifts and impart wisdom on the new maiden. I was dressed head to toe in red, decked in gold plated jewelry and as a bonus was henna'd all over (because my mom is a henna artist). It was awesome and I wish more girls had that experience. It was nice to feel like becoming a woman was a magical thing instead of a horrible secret (which is what my friends were taught)

    Diva cups are lifesaving. I change it every 10 or 12 hours and it never gets even halfway full. I can't imagine it overflowing, but even if it did it wouldn't leak because it seals. 20 out of 10 recommend!!!

    • @amelianannette972

    • @amandaguthrie9045
      @amandaguthrie9045 7 років тому +1

      Kawaii it's because of all the chemicals from the disposable products I was using. Having such a heavy flow meant I was using prob twice as many products during my period(I bough pons at Costco because it was so heavy) plus my periods lasted 2 weeks at a time. I went to an OB from the time I was 14 because I had all the symptoms of endometriosis but I didn't actually have it. They couldn't ever figure out the issue. I even had a procedure where they put a camera in my uterus but still couldn't figure out what was going on. But once I started using cups and cloth pads I haven't had an issue. My period is 6 days now instead of 2 weeks.

    When i got my first period i was 11 just got up getting ready for school. I went down stairs did something i cant remember then was walking up the stairs felt a plop n stopped mid step.. Went straight to the toilet. This perfect red circle in my panties was there. Yelled my moms name she came running up the stairs her n my oldest sister who had a period for like 4 years (she was 15 when this happened to me lol) met at the bathroom door ...i opened it they saw the blood looked at each other smiled nodded n highfived . Mom insisted i stay home that day. I had this rush of energy so i got on my bike and followed the mail man for wat seemed 5 blocks....when i get home ALL MY MOMS FEMALE FRIENDS WERE GATHERED IN THE YARD CELEBRATING MY PERIOD. "our baby is a woman now!!" HUGGING N KISSING ME WHEN I WALkED UP . 7 years later im pregnant and still would rather deal with pregnancy than my period bc of that day🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽😂😂😂

    Diva cups are the best thing ever for me. Not as intimidating as you'd think. It has a learning curve but it's too bad. I never struggle to get it out as long as I'm sitting on the toilet and make sure you break the suction or else you will struggle. Give it a try Lilly!

      I use a yuuki cup (not sure that's how it's spelled) and it's so amazing. I used pads before, because I was just scared that tampons are very harmful to you. Taking out can be difficult especially with long nails 😅. It didn't take long for me to learn not to just pull it out, but use the hotdog method. I would honestly recommend cups to anyone.

      +rabbittricks I personally got over the "gross" factor pretty quickly, but I think it helps to just be generally comfortable with everything down there, and it gets a lot less gross if you just think of it as part of your body. plus it's not like its poop or anything.

    On the Diva Cup - I've used them for years cause they're far more sustainable - I've never had experiences of them overflowing or anything, and generally feel much more secure with them than tampons. To remove it - no nice way to say this - you just have to slide another finger up there to break the suction. It's so scary at first, but I would definately reccomend it to everyone!

      Agreed! Love my Diva Cup. It's defitniely awkward the first few times (best to try it out on a lazy day or 2 at home). Worth it though. You can kind of just go about your regular day without feeling like you have your period (if not for the cramps). I LOVE it for swimming/the beach. I feel way less vulnerable. I probably wouldn't recommend it to someone who isn't comfortable with tampons, first. One awkward step at a time...

    I'm 14 and I use a menstrual cup, I am only 4 foot 8 inches. So for anyone who is worried about it not fitting or being too big please don't. menstrual cups are such an amazing alternative to pads or tampons they don't leak they are better for the environment and the best part you can leave them in for 12 hours! Please look into it I know it seems different and scary but it doesn't hurt to see what it is all about

    • @amy2771
      @amy2771 7 років тому +3

      Unless your parents have a serious concern about you using tampons it's all up to you.
      You get to choose when you're ready and no one can pressure you or tell you otherwise. It's your body.
      And I know the first few years are scary, but It gets easier.
      I'd recommend a period tracker app or marking it down on a calendar so it's easier to remember when it's due. Although, the first year or two aren't usually very steady and can be really difficult to track.

    • @shafaghb
      @shafaghb 7 років тому +1

      The length of the vaginal canal slightly correlates with height of the person and the width is the opposite, means when the person gets shorter it gets wider, and I think the length doesn't have anything to do with fitting a diva cup. Thought sizes varies, but if you are taller than average there is a bigger possibility of having difficulty with this.

    • @kariscains5198
      @kariscains5198 7 років тому +8

      Okay so it's like a cup that suctions to the sides and there's a little nub thing at the bottom. So when you're ready to take it out you just grab hold of the nub and usually just some light pressure against the side of the cup will break the seal (this shouldn't be gross because the top of the cup has formed a seal and nothing has leaked past it). I love my diva cup. It's changed my periods. I don't feel gross. I haven't messed up any panties since I got it. You don't need to worry about changing it frequently like a tampon. You don't run out and need to make an emergency run to the store. It's amazing. I can't believe how much I love it.

    • @727amalie
      @727amalie 7 років тому +4

      Simply Catherine Thank you for your response Karis! I love not having to change my tampon once in a day and the cup still has plenty of room if it were to have been a heavier day. I just pull slightly and the seal breaks and then can just pull it out and dump it right down the toilet. Since I only do this once a day I do it at home so I can clean my cup & re insert it.

    @onyxyskamp4703 7 років тому +39

    I originally bought the diva cup because i was going to go on a month long backpacking trip in the rockies and dint want to have to pack out my used tampons. Now I know going into this comment with that description makes me sound like some epic mountain woman, but no, I'm just a normal girl, normal flow, normal levels of activity (didnt i just say i went backpacking for a month? yeah but I promise, I'm a legit couch potato normally), and I LOVE the diva cup. It hurt at first to put it in, but once you become more familiar with it and your body it gets much easier. It lasts WAY longer than tampons, and there is no risk of toxic shock, so if you're having a light day, leave it longer, no worries. It's great for the environment, its also better for your vagina (tampons are soaked in chemicals and can leave microscopic tears in you vag which makes you more susceptible to STDs). Not to mention you're going to save hella money not buying tampons every month. It is a little unnerving at first to see the blood, which is peoples first concern, and yes it gets on your fingers a little. It's honestly not a big deal though, you wipe your hands off with toilet paper, then wash them in the sink like normal. People tend to emphasize those little inconveniences over the HUGE number of benefits.
    I was a little sad that the video starts to rip on products that they hadn't even tested personally, so that's why I'm leaving this comment. I love it, it just takes a little bit of a commitment to properly test the product. Everyone who I have recommended the cup to has agreed that although its weird at first, it is one of the best period products out there.

    I use a majority of these products... The cloth pad needs to be washed a few times to become absorbent. The sponge can have a string attached and is just like a tampon in my opinion. The diva cup is based on suction, you just released the suction to taking it out. I love all of these products and could never use a chemical filled tampon that leaves behind dangerous fibers.

      Kelseybelsey9 not to mention how they whiten the products. And how those same chemicals are responsible for so many women's cramps each month.

      You know there's organic tampons, right? Just saying. I have used most stuff too, but not the sponge. I love alternatives, especially because they make me feel different about my period. I remember the first time I used my moon cup - and got to pour out the blood instead of throwing away a pad - it was magic, I felt so much more happy about not creating trash. I switch between tampons and moon cup, and I always have a reusable pad aswell(might need a bigger cup, I guess), because suddenly I need it, I tend to leak and also use tampons til they are full sometimes. But I hardly never use non-organic, that's not nice to think about having something unpure inside my body.

      chickadee yes, those a great option for people who like tampons! I just prefer something that's reusable and not as wasteful. 😊

    The Diva Cup is amazingg!!! There is a little tab to pull it out and I pitch the bottom a little to break the suction, but you can literally wear it all day and not worry about it, I was also worried about how big it was but it isn't bad at all when you fold it up. It lasts for 10 years because it is silicon and it about 30 dollars, and is reusable. It is a healthy (No risk of TSS) and cheap alternative to tampons or pads :)

    • @kayyyraaa
      @kayyyraaa 7 років тому +2

      I read that you should replace it once a year but I'm not sure. I use one too and would be interested in the length. At about 30, I may not need to buy another if it's 10 years.

    • @irmhildedufay699
      @irmhildedufay699 7 років тому

      you don't need to buy a new one until it's damaged, i have mine for 3 years now and it's still perfect. just need to boil it between cycle to sterilized. I think it can last 10 years and more.

  • @audreysweeny3883
    @audreysweeny3883 7 років тому +11

    Diva cup is so wonderful and I'm so grateful I used it early in my period life. Your first couple periods can be a bit tricky with learning how to get it in/out (make sure it's around your cervix) but I've only leaked maybe three times because I put it in incorrectly.
    You can wear it in you for twelve hours (recommended) with 0 risk of toxic shock syndrome which means you can go the whole day, sleep with it in, and can change it when you shower/get home from work/school.
    It's maybe fifteen bucks and even after a year it's still in perfect condition! Super cost, eco, and lady friendly. Everybody I know who uses it loves it. 300/10 would recommend

    Was 100% grossed out/skeptical of the diva cup prior to using myself - my roommate had one. When I tried it, I was hooked: way better for the environment, pain-free (sometimes I have discomfort from tampons), NO LEAKS EVER, and you can wear it for double the length - 8-12 hours. Which means you can change it at home, never at work. It's awesome.

      Lane H. I'm about to get one. I used a diaphragm as birth control before kids because hormones and I don't like each other. So it seems very much the same concept and so easy. I'm over all the waste. I had just invested in all natural tampons so was waiting to finish those off. Love that it's no waste and no chemicals.

  • @briightlybee
    @briightlybee 6 років тому +37

    i used pads for the longest time and they were so uncomfortable so one day i went to the bathroom, turned on the shower so no one would know and they'd think i was in the shower, and just had a bunch of tampons and just like, poked around until it worked. my technique (which i don't recommend) was just to ignore the pain and just shove it up there. it worked but it could've gone very wrong. i'm proud to say that i use tampons with ease now! i was so happy when my first tampon went in it was crazy lmao i was like smiling and grinning like i just got a puppy or something.

      @jackystar5099 5 років тому +1

      The first time I had my period cup I had no idea how to insert it. I had never used tampons and I had watched videos but it was honestly scary. It hurt to even try to put it in. Like you I ignored my pain and just stuck it in there. By the end I was sweating and had sworn I would never do it again. I have used it for every period since and now I can gladly say I understand the correct way to use it.
