I fr used to have to change super+ tampons every hour or so on my heavy days + have a pad underneath, but the menstrual cup held blood for hours

they can hold more than tampons and it's safe to leave it in that long since it's silicone not cotton. i just wanted to put off dealing with my period as long as possible

they make different sizes! and also menstrual discs too. they're not a great option for everyone, and regardless of if they end up being a good option there's definitely a learning curve and adjustment period, but there are definitely ways to work around that. do you mean you couldn't get it in, or it was too long?

oh wait wicked!! i just do also worry about dropping like $40 on something if i couldn't use it, but i might have to look into them again. yeah, my issue was that i couldn't get it in at all, and the closest i got had hurt (and wasn't even in)
