Flex Reusable Disc | Reusable Menstrual Disc | Tampon, Pad, and Cup Alternative | Capacity of 6 Super Tampons | Lasts for Years | Includes Carrying Pouch & 2 Free Disposable Discs

I’ve been using this for 2 years now, and I can honestly say it’s the best reusable disc/cup that I’ve tried. It’s easy for me to insert and remove, and I can empty it on heavy days by baring down a bit in the bathroom without having to remove it and rinse it while out and about. It does leak a bit on really heavy days, (like when a tampon needs to be changed) but no more than other products, and wearing period underwear with it makes it a nonissue. It’s so perfect for spotting and light days when I used to use panty liners.I’ve used this on multiple trips, including Disneyland. It was almost like I wasn’t on my period since I didn’t have to take tampons or anything else with me.Yes, it can be messy to remove. But I’m not squeamish, and the pros outweigh the cons by a mile. It’s cheaper (figuring I’ve only needed the one for the last two years), it’s more comfortable, and more environmentally friendly since there’s less waste.As for wearing during sex- I wouldn’t recommend it on heavy days unless you don’t care about the potential mess. But it works really well on light or spotting days.The disc will discolor after a few uses, but now I soak it in hydrogen peroxide after each period and it looks brand new.

The Flex reusable menstrual disc is such an amazing product and I cannot sing its praises enough. I will admit I was a little intimidated when I tried inserting it for the first time, but it was actually a breeze. Once it's in there I don't feel it at all and it stays in place and doesn't leak at all. I love that it's so convenient and comfortable. The fact that I can leave it in for up to 12 hours is just mind-blowing to me. I never have to worry about wearing annoying pads or toxic tampons ever again. I also am amazed at how I can leave it in during sex and there is no mess to clean up afterwards. Also love love love the self-emptying functionality

Alright ladies, let’s talk about the flax disc. 1.does it actually work? -yes! I used it for the entirety of my last period and experienced no problems or leaking2. Is it comfortable? -yes! Once in place it feels exactly like a tampon (or doesn’t feel because you literally can’t feel it once it’s in)3. Is it convenient?-maybe, it’s convenient in the way that you don’t have to worry about running out of tampons or pads, convenient that you only have to check it 2x a day (for me, may need more for a heavier flow) and convenient that you can sleep with it in and not have to worry. NOT convenient because yes, let’s be honest, it can be messy to take out to empty, plus it can be messy putting it back in since there is no applicator to put I in for you. It’s not convenient because if you are in a public restroom and don’t have a cleaning container (buy the pixie cup one, it’s amazing and breaks down for storage) it’s near impossible to clean your disc.4. Is it long lasting? -yes! It can last for years if cleaned properly and not damaged by boiling (get cleaning solution and water or buy a cup/disc steamer to protect the disc from burning) eventually like everything else it will need to be replaced, however it comes no where close to disposing 14 tampons or more, a week every month.5. Does it actually help with cramps?-yes! I typically cramp ALOT on my period, my last period with the disc, I did experience some cramping, however it was no where near as much cramping as I would have with tampons6. Can you actually empty it without taking it out?-yes and no. Because the flex disc only comes in one size, if you’re not a heavy bleeder (like myself usually) you won’t have a lot to empty. This being said, it will be harder to empty a little bit without taking it out, then emptying the majority if you were a heavy bleeder. Also be cautious that in order to self empty, you have a high chance of it coming out of place and needing to be readjusted. My personal opinion? Just take it out to empty and re-insert, a lot easier and guaranteed you won’t leak after. TO SELF EMPTY- you’re going to want to be sitting on the toilet and push as if you were trying to go #2. Your muscles essentially will push the disc down to empty.Finally, #7. Is it better than cheaper discs?-yes! I have also tried other brands and no other discs compares to the flex disc. The flex is made with high quality medical grade silicone, while others tend to have a more plasticy feel to them and bend less easily than the flex discOVERALL - an amazing product and I highly recommend it. It’s eco friendly and not linked to TSS which was a main seller for me. However, u do wish the company would make different sizes to meet the needs of different flows. Having a larger disc with light bleeding seems excessive instead of just using a smaller size.

I truly feel like this has changed my life. I have very heavy periods and even combining a tampon and pad I have had leaks in less than 2 hours. It has gotten bad enough in the last few years that there have been times I've chosen not to go places when on my heaviest days.I did try a cup and another brand of disc before doing a ton of research and ordering the Flex Disc. Be prepared that you may have to try different types to find what works for you. The other disc I bought was comfortable, but it did not self-empty for me, so would have been much more difficult to deal with in a public restroom. The cup was nowhere near as comfortable or easy to use and also would have been more difficult to deal with in public.The Flex cup is not noticeable at all, it's comfortable and it self-empties for me when I use the restroom. There is a learning curve when putting a disc in place and taking it out. Since I am only on my second cycle using one, I'm not a pro yet, but it is still infinitely better than changing a tampon multiple times a day. I was able to work from home on my heaviest day which was great while I was ensuring this was the right product for me. There were no leaks, I had minimal cramps compared to the bad ones I usually have, and most of the day it was very easy to forget I was even on my period. I truly wish I had found discs much earlier in life.
