I LOVE MY DISC TOO!! And tbh it does get messy sometimes but you figure out how to minimize the mess over time. And you just gotta realize it's just your own blood and you can just clean up when you're done :) Plus they last so much longer than tampons if you have a heavy flow that the mess is worth it 2-3 times per day rather than having to worry about changing a tampon every couple of hours

You can use them a lot longer than a tampon but if you have a heavy flow and a small bladder like me you’ll just have to be okay with pushing out blood ever time you go to the bathroom. But for me it’s a lot better then stressing about getting my tampons string wet every time I go to the bathroom. Also my tampons occasionally shift on me and can become uncomfortable and that doesn’t happen at all with discs. A lot of people me included feel like it allows you to “forget” your on your period.
