Very personal question

Has anyone ever heard of this product or used it?
I keep see ads for it everywhere & I'm still trying to figure out how it works. I figured I could ask the most women at one time here. It seems really gross to me. Hope I'm not offending anyone!
New product

Re: Very personal question

I'd never heard of it....but I can't imagine how it works. Is it just a bowl that collects it? Then it spills out when you take it out. I'm a little too squeamish for that myself.

You could order a sample I saw on the website though....

I cannot in anyway imagine using that. JMO.

Re: Very personal question

I have never heard of it or seen it before! It looks & appears to be just like a diaphram. That is REALLY GROSS! IMO

Re: Very personal question

I have read about it, and apparently its's um...very messy when removed.

Re: Very personal question

My friend's sister is very 'natural' in her way of life, and she loves it. I, on the other hand, will pass, thankyouverymuch.

Re: Very personal question

Ok, so then you guys are like me. My best friend always used those applicator free tampons & I remember needing to borrow one from her when we were out one day & I was mortified! I was like how the he!! invented this primitive thing?
Did anyone read the part about being able to have sex with it in? Are they kidding me? How far up there does it go? I bet they'll be girls going to the emergancy room looking for help on getting it out. EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW

Re: Very personal question

I've never heard of it and if I don't see it again - I will be okay with that

Re: Very personal question

I've actually heard of it before. I can't imagine using it though, nor do I know of anyone who has. Ewww.. To be honest, it took me until I was 18 before I would attempt to use a tampon. Yep, went through my HS years using pads, which I nicely refer to now as diapers!!

NO thanks, I'll pass!!

Re: Very personal question

ewww...actually when we were in HS, our health teacher gave the girls samples...just reading about it makes me sick to my stomach..I cannot imagine filling up a cup all day---up to 12 hours!!! ewww...but thats me...I can;t stand to see blood even from a teeny tiny paper cut...so a cup full I think would make me pass out!~

Very gross! Ugh

Re: Very personal question

I've seen it before and all I can say is I would rather wear a super long maxi pad than wear one of those.
I believe only men should wear 'cups' down there

Re: Very personal question

I bought a box probably 4 years ago. It is still in my bathroom under the sink unused!

Re: Very personal question

a (strange) roommate in college used one of these - I always thought it was bizarre. How is it hygenic - using the same cup over and over again (and who wants to wash it!). Some things are better off disposable!

I was just never a fan of the whole idea...
