Hey y'all!
Back probably around 2012 I wanna guess Kings Dominion the amusement park had this straw that went with their Icee cups that had a circular bit to it and had a 3D icee logo on it that spun. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Maybe you have a picture of it?
Thank you!
Hi there!
I'm interested in buying a cup or a disc, but am not sure which one to choose or if either is really right for my goals. I'm trying to become more sustainable, but I've used period underwear for about 4 years now and I just find them to leak a lot, smell, and be a hassle to go out in.
Cups or discs seem like a great option, but I'm honestly terrified of anything to do with reaching into my vagina. Like, my OB/GYN did a pelvic exam on me and it pinched for a second and I fainted. I tried a tampon once and it just felt uncomfortable and I'm not very comfortable with my anatomy in general.
I've done a bit of research into both and many people say that cups are great for beginners, but they depend on suction which freaks me out (even though I know it can't get stuck in there). Discs seem to be easier to pull out, but they require reaching deeper into your vagina.
For additional context, I don't mind touching my own blood and I have a high cervix. I was very sensitive the one time I used a tampon, so I am also looking for an option that feels the least noticeable once it's inside. Also, I'm a student and don't have a lot of money to spend on trying different products.
I'm wondering if anyone's had a similar experience to me, how did you get over this fear, what you're using now, and if I should considering investing in a cup or disc, or put some more research into it.
Thank you guys so much!
