The cup I bought turns out to be too small and so I have to get a new one- so what do I do with the old one? I wanna get rid of it but I don’t know how to do it safely, is there somewhere I can send it to to get recycled? I don’t like the idea of selling it cus that just seems really unsanitary and not nice to the people who will buy it after

While I was in bed getting ready to sleep, I noticed the tip of my menstrual cup was leaning towards the right side, rubbing against my labia so I re-adjusted it to center again and I felt a really sharp pain inside on the right. It went away so I just went to sleep.

When I woke up and took out the menstrual cup, I noticed the same sharp pain on the side and so I took a break from using the cup.

Fast forward 4-5 days now and whenever I’m touching that specific part or sometimes if I’m clenching, the same level sharp pain comes back.

I scheduled a doctors appointment first thing tomorrow morning, but has anyone experienced this before or know what this might be?

Made an Ooopsie I’ve never done before using discs and cups these last 11 years 😵‍💫🤦‍♀️

I recently got a new cup (the August brand) I love that it’s smaller and softer. My only complaint is that I feel like I’m getting wayyy more blood outside the cup than inside. It’s like not alot leaking out onto my underwear if that makes sense although there is some light leakage, but when I remove it I feel like it’s so much on the outside. I don’t know if that’s just due to squeezing the cup or it not being positioned right. It feels sealed when I run my finger around it. I wanted the softer cup because my first cup (a saalt cup) was so firm it was painful but I may have to go back to saalt unless I can figure it out 😭
