Hey ladies! Menstral cups....

Pregnancy will solve that problem but then you end up trading that for poopy diapers and 17 years or more of a little demon who will drive you crazy and leave you broke.

heavy to start with then light
change every few hours when heavy
and wear panty liner
once every 12 hours when light

give it a go!

I WILL! Just need to find somewhere at the arse end of the world Adelaide (according to many posters) that have them. I still cant believe I never heard of them until today.

gross

Oh, I see (still .) We males take the ability to control bodily fluids for granted—during waking hours, anyway.

I think God needs to recall you women back to fix your inherent biological defects before someone is injured.

Don't try and pretend you knew before you read it on this thread.

Dammit I am trying to eat lunch.
Fcuk.
::heaves::

I was just thinking this thread was having the same effect on me as the leg hair thread only I'm also a bit hungry.

Bloody and/or shitty sex are some of the best parts, huh? Whatever floats your boat.

Hair and body fluid.
Enough to make one work up a hell of an appetite.

Reminds me of this...





Women becoming men and men becoming women,what's next?

No problem! Happy to help my sister.

They're sold at groceries and Wal-mart, Target, etc. They suck if you have heavy periods...unless you really like spilling cups filled with menstrual blood.

To be honest,I ordered"the keeper" and it was terrible.
I couldn't even get it in (not to sound gross)I oculdn't imagine fighting to get it in and out several times a day if I spent a half hour trying the first time.
No two women are alike size wise so I guess for some it doesn't work well?
I'd try the cheaper alternative first like"Diva cup" available at walmart etc in feminine hygiene products section to see if you even like it before you purchase a more expensive model,that was my mistake.

I'd prefer a healthy stock of sea sponge.

Was discussing this the other day with some male friends.

One suggested dish towels or wash cloths with duct tape on one side so blood wouldn't soak through.

Double sided tape if you wanted the towel to stick to your panties.

I would imagine you would do it all in the shower anyway?

But wouldnt it be nearly impossible to clean the centre of the sponge? Blood clings to surfaces so well. TSS in the making.

I never had a problem with it. The sponges are good with rinsing and if you know how to clean them, there's no risk of tss at all. You can keep making assumptions though. I don't mind.

Cleaning agents for sponges after rinsing the sponge out:
1) tea tree oil and water soak for 5-10 minutes, rinse clean
2) hydrogen peroxide soak, but be careful not to leave it in too long or the sponge will start to disintegrate

Never use hot water as it causes the sponge to shrink, use the above for cleaning it. Don't ever apply soap to the sponge.

There are many other cleaning methods, but these were my go-to methods.

TSS is less likely with sponges than other things, and so long as proper cleaning of the sponges occur, there are no problems with repeat use until it's no longer a desired shape/texture to fit inside of you properly. If you have a supply to rotate through, they should last you at least a year or more.

Actually you cant really feel it inside you...unlike the tampons and pads.

I had a housemate who used to use them and she would leave them drying by the bathroom sink next to my toothbrush. This act pretty much cured me of any curiosity I had about them. In fact, every time I am served salad dressing in a little plastic cup at a restaurant, I start screaming inside of my head. But I am sure they are earth friendly and a better choice. Just not for me. *is traumatized*

I will NEVER eat pussy again......

Ha-ha....yes the cervix looks a little like ET with an eye gouged out.

Finally had my period...after a few months respite...I think that is ethanol (regular red wine) related and not menopause induced. Anyway....I finally got to use the cup. It "bloody" brilliant! Its way cleaner than I expected....after years of handfuls of tampons and pads filled with pomegranite offerings, spurts of clots and entrails all over my bed linen AND its so comfortable.

This method is like...confined to the cup! I pull it out, pour the blood in the toilet....rise the cup (I do have a tap/sink next to my toilet) and pop it back in. There is no blood all over my hand or cunt because the uterus deposits it into the cup! I went to the Botanic Gardens today and worried about not being close to a sink BUT...I just poured out the contents and popped it back in...washed it out properly when I got home and needed a pee anyway.

Ladies.....you really have to try this method. Imagine no more tampons or pads. Buy a mentrual cup and it lasts donkeys years...its plastic so it wont warp. After you use it each month....you pop it in a mug, pour over boiling water and its sterilized until you need it again. I just wish I had known about this 20 years ago!

It irks me greatly that they dont advertise this.....are tampon/pad moguls shutting them up or not allowing them to advertise? You would think all green people would go for it. Its nuts that this technology hasnt taken over the world by storm.

Remember the "Today" sponge for birth control?

It gave a whole new meaning to Sponge Bob.
