Pretty good, so far...

I have to confess, though the idea makes a lot of sense, I was a bit dubious about the Diva Cup. It seems to work ok but I think I might try the other size or a different type. I did a lot of research and asked a lot of questions on blogs and discussion boards -- for, oh, about three months.

It's pretty amazing as a concept - and it makes a lot of sense. It's definitely a lot less waste and takes up less space than boxes of tampons. I'm ready to return all my unopened boxes of tampons to the store!

The heaven sent Divacup

This is my first cycle with the diva cup, and I cannot be happier. I can't tell you how glad I am to not wear pads or tampons! Pads are inconvenient, messy, smelly, have leaks, and make me feel very unclean. Tampons are terrible for you and the environment, and the divacup has none of those worries!! I love how you can wear it for up to 12 hours, which means you don't have to worry about leaks while sleeping!! The suction keeps all the fluid inside, which means no leaks! Hooray! Super comfortable, convenient, and healthy! Praise to the divacup! The only problems I can think of are: the blood getting on your hands while inserting/removal of the diva cup, and a few tiny leaks because I haven't yet figured out the right position for the divacup....nothing a liner can't fix. Hooray for the diva cup!!!!!!

A product every woman should own

The Diva Cup is not only great for the environment, but it also makes that visit from Aunt Flow much more bearable.

Divacup

This product did not work for me, but I know many people have been pleased with it. It is so much cheaper and earth friendly than using other products!

Responsible AND Convenient

I bought this product after reading a review similar to this one, and I have been so pleased with my choice! Since it holds more than a pad or tampon, it needs to be changed much less often. This means that the whole process, which might sound weird, messy, and troublesome, is actually a LOT more convenient. As an added bonus, you're saving more than paper and plastic by using the Diva Cup; it pays for it self in just a few months.
This device takes a little getting used to, but the process is fast and I think you'll be pleased with the results.

Diva cup pretty damn good alternative!

Impressed with the ecological benefits of the Diva Cup, I decided to give it a try. The best part is that I am no longer putting harmful dioxins into my body, which are contained in most tampon products. By using the Diva Cup, I'm also reducing the amount of landfill waste. However, I have found that the Diva Cup is prone to leakage, so I do still have to wear a pad with it. Overall, a great product!

The Diva Cup

I was getting discouraged by the amount of waste (and expense!) I generated every month from disposible menstrual products, so I started looking for other options. I found the Diva Cup, a reusable silicon cup that catches the mentrual flow. It can be emptied and cleaned out when needed, and then immediately used again. I LOVE this product...it takes some practice learning to use it properly, but it is worth it. It can take the place of all other menstrual products. You can run, hike, swim, sleep and drive long distances without worrying about leaking or needing to replace it. Plus, knowing you never need to buy another box of tampons or pads is so liberating! I highly recommend the Diva Cup!

Save yourself and the earth!!

I have been using the Diva Cup for two years now and I love telling others about this product. This is something no woman should go without.
This small medical-grade silicone cup can be reused over and over for practically the rest of your life. Say goodbye to the $5-$10 a month you spend on tampons. People always ask me if it feels funny, but just like tampons, once it's in, you don't even know its there.
So, stop subjecting yourself to bleached fibers that could lead to Toxic Shock Syndrome and stop the insane amount of waste created by feminine products. Give the Diva Cup a try today!!!

DivaCups are way better than tampons and pads

I love this product so much because it's a lot less of a hassle than tampons and pads, it's environmentally sustainable and saves me money (you only need one, it lasts 10 years and comes with a year-long money back guarantee). It also doesn't dry you out and you don't have to change it as often cause it holds a lot of fluid. Plus, the DivaCup gets guys talking about menstruation, which I think is pretty damn cool. Oh yeah, it's made of silicone so you can boil it if you want to sterilize it and it's approved by the FDA and Canada Health.

ONE PIECE OF KIT YOU NEED

I WAS DUBIOUS AT FIRST. BUT IT'S BEEN GREAT FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS NOW. WHILE A LITTLE EXPENSIVE TO BUY AT ONCE ($25) YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY BOXES UPON OF TAMPONS. THUS MAKING IT A GREAT TRAVEL COMPANION TOO. MY BOYFRIEND AND I NICK-NAMED IT "MY HOLY GRAIL "- THINK DAVINCI CODE. WORKS OUT GREAT - I'VE BEEN GIVING THEM TO MY GIRLFRIENDS FOR TRAVELING AND WEDDING GIFTS ;)
