Pixie Cup - Soft, Safe, Reusable Menstrual Cup - Ranked 1 for The Best Tampon Alternative - 100% Medical-Grade Silicone Period Cup for Feminine Care - Buy One We Give One (Large)

Before (practice on a dry run) So it did this weird thing where it didn’t pop open inside at first but now I thought I figured it out but I’m not sure if when I put my finger up there if it’s folding because of my finger?? But also if I like take it out it pops open then, and I’m not sure if it because it’s not opened or if it just folds down because my opening it small and it smushes it ?? Also I kept pinching my skin around my vagina which hurt a lot, but I left it in over night since I could feel my period coming, and I emailed them my concerns. Day one I started my period at school at close to the end of the day so I popped it in and bam! It just went in so easy and it make a loud slurping noise which probably didn’t sound so good to the other girls in the bathroom lol. I put a pad on just Incase. And it worked! It didn’t leak and it did its job! I took it out in the shower at the end of the day surprisingly there wasn’t much blood but it I poured it out it like exploded like it was super concentrated. It I put it back it back in it wouldn’t cooperate yet again, and First I thought was because I was standing, then I tried Sitting on the toilet didn’t work, but when I laid down in my bed it popped right open and sucked in air, I got a little freaked out because it felt like there’s to much air in there but a little bubble came out and I feel much more comfortable now. Day 2 I was pleased to see that is didn’t leak during the night and it was working! But emptying it made a pretty big mess though. I wore it for the day, it worked perfect! I kinda learned that with this then you just have to trust it to work, because there’s no way to for sure know if it popped open completely. But I never ever had any leaking! Or pain or feeling uncomfortable. Although my only complaint is that the removal and putting it back in was painful but it would quickly go away and it fine, and it was fine though the night! They also emailed me back and explained there was learning curve, and my body needs to get used to it, they also offered to send me a smaller cup! Day 3 It’s still working and I think I’ve got a pretty good hang of it!! It still is a little painful going in and out, but I totally forget about it when it settles it’s pretty crazy! With tampons I constantly feeling bubbles and keep reminding myself to change it not to risk any infections, and with pads well it’s feels like a diaper so it’s impossible to forget. But with the cup i totally forget I’m even on my period! It’s amazing! I just can’t believe that I don’t feel something that big! It’s also amazing to clean, it’s just so east and everything just slides out, so far it hasn’t stained! But that might be because it’s pink and not clear. Day 4: Not sure what else to say! It did it’s job and it was great! Went in and out smoothly and no leaking ! After: So I made a mistake,,, and totally forgot to take it out aaannnd now it seems to be stained with a horrible smell, but! I read up on it, and I’m soaking it in a 3% vinegar bath which many people say cures the bad smell I’m hoping it’ll work! Over all review: I’d definitely give this a 6 out of 5 if I could! This is a amazing product! I can’t believe that I used to be so creeped out by these things and when my sister told me about it I thought to myself “I’ll never use that vampire shot glass!!” But look at me now! I love how reused able it is, making it so eco friendly! I love how you don’t have to deal with making sure you have enough tampons or pads when you go on a trip! Also not to mention if apocalypses/natural disasters where to happen this will be a lifesaver (sorry to be a downer but I live in a high earthquake risk) also the company making these are just the best! They really care about what people have to say, wether it’s good or bad, they also donate a cup to a woman in need which I love and think is amazing! I’m totally hooked and am happy with this cup!

Okay I’m about to get real and graphic so if you can’t handle what I’m about to share, skip this review. I’m 5’4’’ and morbidly obese at about 330 pounds. I would shop for my wallet killers aka pads and tampons down the same aisle when I need to replenish. I kept looking at the Diva Cup on the shelf and was turned off by the price. That’s what gets me...the price. Was I that willing to fork over a ridiculous amount of money for something that’s supposed to save me so much more the rest of my life? No lol! Money is too tight these days. So I broke down and asked in a makeup group I’m in on Facebook about the Diva Cup and what their thoughts were on it. A vast, large majority said it was best thing they ever had. Which is exactly what I wanted to hear. I needed to hear the support whether it was good or bad. So I ordered this at the tail end of my period so it’s not like I had a lot of “obstacles” in the way trying this out. I’m a very huge woman so I found that doing the trifold method versus just folding the cup over once worked best for me. I relaxed my muscles and just pretended like it was a tampon I’m inserting only it’s a purple silicone funnel lol! I tried inserting standing up and it just wasn’t working for me. I did wayyyyy better sitting down on the toilet which is best when you have to take it out anyway. I almost had it perfectly placed the first time inserting it. Reading the directions first put me at ease. Little things like you can pee with it in and not to use it for post natal bleeding. It was nice to read the small pamphlet for helpful tips, advice and how to take care of your menstrual cup. It felt funny at first and then I made myself move around more. I sat down on the sofa and I felt the cup go up more and I felt even more comfortable. One thing’s for sure, you can’t be afraid to get friendly with your “southern territory” so that you can make sure the cup is positioned like it should. Don’t be afraid to push the cup up higher. If you feel like something is stuck down below, it’s probably not in right. When it feels comfy, you’ll know. Some will feel it and others won’t. For me, I know it’s there and yes I feel it but it’s not an annoyance. I never felt uncomfortable to the point I need to adjust it. For those of you that work a lot, this cup is supposed to serve no leak protection for up to 12 hours and it’s true. I get up in the morning and unplug to shower and sanitize my cup. I pop it in and although it’s supposed to be leak free protection, there’s nothing wrong with putting on a panty liner for insurance. So that’s what I do. I go to work as normal and by the time I get home, I unplug, clean, sanitize and shower. I’m usually at my heaviest on day 2-3 and I go 5 days max when I’m on my cycle on average. I work at a daycare (for now....last day is in three days and then I’m going to a desk job!). Working with kids you’re up and down, constantly moving. I wore a panty liner and the Pixie Cup today and there was no leaking whatsoever and no discomfort of any kind. No smells. No blood on my underwear. No tampon in sight. No long Infinity pads the size of an eagle’s wing span. Being so big is so tough. I’ll have a heavy cycle and I’ll wear the Super absorbency tampon with a Heavy or Overnight absorbency Always Infinity pad at the same time. And having a big backside it just sucks up my underwear and then blood can easily got up the crack of my butt no matter what kind of menstrual armor I put on and I have to go to the bathroom just to wipe myself up. Granted, I wear black pants everyday, but blood can smell and no one is gonna tell me I smell but they might if I’m not around. Or I go to the bathroom and sit down on the toilet and there’s blood on the back part of the toilet. So I wipe the blood away and Lysol the toilet until it’s dead and wipe it down like I’m getting paid for it. I hated how I would smell and I was changing my pads and tampons. This Pixie Cup has given me peace of mind and freedom. For once, something makes me feel good about myself. Maybe once I get this weight loss surgery next year I’ll be even more confident in my body and struggle less with inserting this Pixie Cup. We have a 9 year old and 2 year old, both girls. So maybe when that time of the month starts for them, it might be something for them to consider if they’re comfy with it and save some money and protect their bodies in the long run. It’s important that they make their own choices when it comes to what they wanna do with the feminine products they use. Since I’m now educated in the benefits of a menstrual cup, not just for saving money, but for better health practices too, it’s another option for our daughters to consider when that time comes for them. Another important thing I was worried about is this thing disappearing into my body and I never see it again. For those of you that have had a child, push like you’re pushing a baby out and you’ll see the end of the cup and remove it. For those of you who haven’t had a baby, push as if you’re trying to pee or like your trying to have a bowel movement. I always wondered that if I shove this thing up there, will it want me to retrieve it haha. Keep in mind I’m a very big woman so when I sit down, that Tsumani-like force of my butt pressing against any surface is going to move things North, South, East and West I ain’t lying. And I still was able to get it out. So yes, I’m impressed with this, told my mom about my experience and how much I liked it. She didn’t even know something like this existed even though it’s been out for a long time now. I explained to her how it’s used, the benefits, etc. She wish she had it when she started her cycle. As far as the cleansing wipes, they’re good and if you wanna go cheaper, you can always have a small bathroom clutch bag and store some unscented baby wipes in a zip lock or get a travel sized pack of wipes and store it inside of your bathroom clutch so that you can easily clean your cup in the bathroom if you’re out in public or at your place of business. In case you might drop your cup in the toilet, get a backup cup or have a backup pad or two just to keep yourself covered until you can properly sanitize it once you get home. I even used Vagisil to clean my Pixie Cup and very hot water. I’m cheap, I try to use what I have before spending a ton of money right away. Hope this review helped!

Love this product. Highly recommend

Cercavo una coppetta grande, questa ha funzionato bene (gradirei una taglia ancora più capiente) ed è comodissima da togliere perchè non sfugge

I had just switched from using pads to trying out a menstrual cup. I was a bit nervous trying it for the first time, but surprisingly insertion was super easy and it fits well!! I’ve had no leaks and I am so happy with the pixie cup :) I highly recommend this product.

I have never ever used a cup before. I could never wear tampons since my teens, they were always so uncomfortable & i could feel it all day. But wow. These have changed the game for me Dont get me wrong, i am still getting used to getting it in and out, but when its in, i can't feel it. I really cant. The only time ill kind of 'remember' its there, is if i cough too hard😂 Id highly recommend trying it out in the shower, can get a good stretch/squat going on to practice, plus if you're already flowing can easily wash yourself I apparently skimmed the instructions as you are NOT supposed to pull it out from the dangly bit. To remove, where the dangly bit joins to the cup, reach to that point to squeeze around the bottom of the cup and gently pull out. My first thought was 'how am i meant to stick my hand up..' but you can🤣 I was surprised that when removing it didnt go all over the place and was in the cup. I dont know and havent 'used it' in a public space. They provide you wipes for the cup which helps you to just tip the cup into the toilet, use the wipe and either put back in or in the little bag. BUT we're women! We shouldnt be ashamed of this in a public bathroom, we would help one out if we bled through our pants or didnt have a sanitary towel, this should be the same! Truly though, i dont do reviews often but felt compelled to for others who are considering. If you are considering maybe start from XS & work your way up. Its kind of a mix of 'how big is your vagina' vs 'how heavy is my flow' im considering the XS for lighter days for example

Tacto muy suave. A pesar de ser tamalan XL es muy cómoda de poner y de usar. Perfecta.
