You can wear it for 12 hours at a time. So you only have to change it twice a day rather than every 4 hours. That's the big thing for me.
How do you know when your cup over runneth?
I can tell when I'm about to leak because I can feel it bulging out of my vag. So, basically, if I can feel it, I need to empty it. (Disclosure: my perineum is really short because my stitches tore after H was born. So, it's kind of wide open.)
I've had mine for several months. I refuse to have another period without a cup.
Question. I know you're not supposed to use tampons when your flow is light. Can you use the cup when it's light?
oh yeah, that's one of the great benefits! I was always paranoid about putting a tampon in too soon since my cycles wacky and I can never tell if I'm just spotting or starting
