I've been thinking about trying this product for over 2 years and am very happy that I have. I feel really good about using it and am on my way to feeling 100% comfortable with the whole experience of using this product. I've just used it for my second cycle with it (boiled it yesterday to cleanse post-round). I had zero discomfort from the beginning but had to adjust to a different product (I'm so used to tampons!). Highly recommended.
beach ready!

I wore the Diva cup to the beach today and no problems. It didn't leak, didn't shift, didn't absorb any seawater, didn't need to be changed in dirty beach bathrooms, and there was no nasty string sneaking out the bikini bottom. I was thrown around by the waves all day and I couldn't even feel it.
The only thing I don't like about this product is emptying it. Who wants to rinse bloody gunk down the sink? At least you only have to do that twice a day. Insertion is okay, but it's almost too big. I would prefer if I could fold it just a bit smaller.
I like the concept, but...
I'm a 29yo and couldn't figure out what size to get since I'm right on the cusp between model 1 & 2. I bought #1, but it leaks even when inserted correctly. It's ok for lighter days, but I have to get the next size up. FYI: you CAN feel it inside of you (unlike a tampon)but you get used to it. Looking forward to never having to buy tampons again!
