Reusable Menstrual Disc - 2 Pack (S & L), Red & Orange

Updated review January 2025: Over a year on I’m still using these menstrual discs and I’ve recommended them to allll my friends. I’ve had no issues with leakage apart from the one instance I mentioned in my original review where my boyfriend accidentally dislodged it. They’re comfortable to wear (I often forget I have them in) and easy to clean, and although they’re more expensive than a pack of pads or tampons, by this point I’ve probably broken even. I’ve just seen another review which says they don’t last long, but this doesn’t reflect my experience so perhaps that person got a faulty product or has been a bit overzealous while cleaning (I scrub mine quite vigorously with soap before sterilising though). The fact these come as a two-pack is great as you can remove one, put the other in and clean and sterilise the first one so it’s ready for when you change it later. I can go to the toilet as normal without worrying about pushing this out or any part of it getting contaminated. I have also used them while swimming, and basically I can live my life totally as normal while wearing the disc. Can’t recommend them enough. I would love to gift these to my more eco-conscious friends or friends who struggle with pads and tampons, but I think people might find it to be a weird gift. Luckily a few of my friends have already followed my recommendation and are equally happy with the discs. Just buy them! You won’t regret it. Original review September 2023: I love these! I’ve been intrigued about menstrual discs for a while and I was going to buy the nixit disc which I think is about £40, but I had put it off for a long time as I was worried I might hate it. I have tried a menstrual cup (the moon cup) in the past and I really didn’t get on with it, I found it too stiff so it was uncomfortable to wear, and because cups rely on suction I found it really difficult to remove and was put off from ever using it again. This experience made me wonder if I would have a similar experience with discs but I wanted something more sustainable than tampons. When I saw these at about £26 for a pack of two I decided they would be a good way to try a disc without wasting too much money if it’s not for me. I’m 28 (soon to be 29) and have never been pregnant or given birth. I first tried the smaller size, which did leak but I think that’s because my boyfriend dislodged it because he was intrigued about what it was and how it fits in etc. The next day I was keen to try again so I tried the larger size, which did feel a bit bigger inside me at first, but once I relaxed I couldn’t feel it at all. They’re easy to remove with the little finger loop - the instruction say you can cut this off if you find it uncomfortable, but I can’t see how it would cause discomfort and I also think it it would make it more difficult to remove the disc. I also think that seeing the blood collected in the cup rather than it being absorbed by a pad or a tampon makes me feel more in tune with my body as I have a real sense of how heavy my flow is which I never really did before. I was kinda surprised! Additionally, we have tested the claim that you can use these to have mess free period sex and were pleasantly surprised! There was no sign of me being on my period, although my boyfriend said he could feel the disc but that it wasn’t too bad. I wanted to give them a good trial before I left the review, so I’m currently on my second period since getting them and I can confidently say I have no plans of going back to tampons. I haven’t used pads since I was in school, which is actually very risky behaviour on my part as it means that I usually use tampons overnight which promotes the risk of toxic shock syndrome. However it’s safe to use a menstrual disc overnight so this is an additional benefit. I originally thought it was kinda annoying that they come in a pack of two sizes, but both sizes work for me so that’s actually fine. My original plan was to try these first before trying the nixit disc, but I get on with these so well and they’re such good value for money, I really don’t see the point in spending almost double the amount on a single cup when I can get two for this price. Absolutely cannot fault this product; at the end of its lifespan I’m likely to buy the same product from the same brand again, and if I were to lose or damage them I wouldn’t hesitate to repurchase. A note on cleaning: I understand that if I were to sterilise this in a pan, the very act of sterilising it means that I’m not contaminating the pan. However, I don’t really like the idea of potentially cooking for myself, my boyfriend, friends and family in a pan which I’ve used to clean a menstrual product. I bought a little electric steam steriliser from amazon for about £20 which works well. I remove the disc, empty it into the toilet or shower (depending on where I am when I removed it) then clean it in either the shower or sink with shower gel or handwash. Then I use the steriliser I bought. You can buy sterilisers which are just a collapsible silicone container that you fill with water, pop your disc or cup in, and microwave. I would have bought one of these but we don’t own a microwave. If your disc has an unpleasant odour once you’ve washed and sterilised it, you may have something going on down there (I wasn’t aware I had BV the first time I used my discs. I used hydrogen peroxide to get rid of the odour and I have been fine this period after treating the BV - no unpleasant odours)

I never leave reviews but it’s day one and i just have to! I have never used a cup or disc before, i always use tampons and panty liners towards the end of my period, i would say i have a normal flow most of the time some months can be heavier and some lighter but overall a “normal” flow. I had been looking at the Saalt disc for a few months and thought whilst i am off work over christmas it was a perfect time to try it out but delivery was going to be too long and i saw these discs and it was cheaper, came with two different sizes and could be delivered the next day so thought i would go ahead and try them. I did my research before hand on how to insert and remove a menstrual disc so i was prepared thinking it might be a bit difficult to get used to but i pinched that thing like a taco and slotted it up with no problem! I was shocked at how easy it was. I kept going back for a quick wipe for the first few hours to see if i was leaking but nothing! I am not someone who can wee with a tampon in as i hate the the thought of wee on the string and also feel like the relaxing of my pelvic floor muscles when i wee dislodges my tampon and just feels uncomfortable so I would often hold off as long as i could to go to the toilet as i knew i would want to change my tampon and it’s just annoying and is one of the reasons i wanted to try a disc. With the menstrual disc, I went for a wee whenever i needed throughout the day and it was like i had nothing up there, i could not feel it at all. It self emptied a little whilst having a wee so there was blood when wiping which according to my TikTok research is completely normal. I just slipped a finger up there when i had cleaned up to make sure the disc was still hooked behind my pubic bone. No problems what so ever taking it out, the little pull tab made it super easy. I just squatted over the toilet and carefully pulled it out. TMI but i found it super interesting to actually see the amount of blood, texture, consistency etc. I tipped it down the toilet and cleaned it in the sink, i am not squeamish when it comes to my own bodily fluids so it was no problem for me. Of course it is messy and you will get blood on your hands. If you are squeamish or don’t like the thought of having to get your fingers up there and essentially have a rummage around then a menstrual disc probably isn’t for you but it’s your lady bits and there is nothing gross or weird about it girls! I don’t see the need to buy the Saalt disc as these discs are working for me. I used the smaller one throughout the day and will try out the larger one tonight for bed tonight. Although this is only day one, i feel i am fully converted! Highly recommend trying girlies! Apologies if this was way too much sharing but there should be no shame about discussing our periods girls! Super normal and it’s fascinating and amazing what our bodies can do!

Bought for my wife, her review is: Theoretically, these would be fantastic. However, I think they are made of very poor quality material. After just a couple of uses and sterilising/thoroughly cleaning, the material has become stained and discoloured, making me apprehensive to use it further. I will most likely purchase are higher quality one of these in the future as it functioned perfectly and is the most comfortable and easy to use period product I have ever had! Just a shame the material is of poor quality, especially considering they are cheap!

I love the idea of these, but I think maybe for me it's simply too soft. I violently bled through a couple times, didn't seem like the disc was even in the same postcode when it happened. I think it got warm and extra soft, as it already is quite soft, and me moving around a lot made it shift a little and with the pressure of the contents it just couldn't hold up and it all came out at once. Disaster. I haven't had kids and I do my exercises, but the disc still moves around a bit for me. Feels like it doesn't have much structural integrity when it gets warm. It was easy to get in place and to get out again, thanks to the pull tab. If you have any cup or tampon experience this operation should be more than doable. Would love to try another make that maybe has a firmer ring, as I would much rather fight a little to get it out of me than have it empty itself and flop around because it's too soft for me. I would return this if I could, I will not use it again as it just doesn't offer me any more security than the cup. It does however feel like a good quality product, nice colour, and the carry pouch is great.

There are 2 sizes - one is too small and the other is too big. The small one slips around. The big one pops back out. Both leave puddles. I wish there was a way to find the perfect fit as a cup works okay.

I've been using a Nixit disc for years but bought these a couple years ago to try. Although I had these I never really used them because I had the nixit but I have been finding the nixit hard to use due to my low cervix. I wanted to try these on a period where I'd be home for my first couple days so had to wait a few months for an opportunity and this month I've managed to remember to try them out. I went with the smaller size and it's so much more comfortable than the nixit to put in and get in place properly. I've had no leaking at all and I'm really impressed. I should have used these sooner but honestly forgot I had them for a while.

Awful. Ended up going back to Diva cups and tampons since it leaks randomly. It's messy and hard to empty. Seems good quality, and it is comfy, but it definitely doesn't work for everyone. So glad it works for other people, but now it's just another piece of plastic in my drawer.

I've had cups before and struggled to use them, just can't get them in its super annoying and a waste of money. These discs are considerably easier to put in and last all day I really enjoy them. I have an awkward cycle due to contraception so my flow isn't as heavy as it used to be These are comfortable to wear you don't feel a thing and I recommend looking up a tutorial if you're unsure how to insert but you will be needing to push it far back, don't worry it's easy to loop your finger on the pull tab to get it back out. I think the colour design is smart too so they don't look as dirty if they need to be sanitised :)

This product has been LIFE CHANGING! DISC - AMAZING! - You can use it for 12 HOURS. - You can be on the beach not worrying if there is a string coming out of your binikis. - You do not need to worry about where you will change the tampon, or if there is a restaurant near by. - There is NO MESS what so ever, it DOESN'T LEAK. - The disc DOESN'T EFFECT YOU'RE CRAMPS at all. - There is a small learning curve of insertion but you'll have it down in 3 tries. You just need to figure out the correct size for you (the majority of women have M-L, while S is very rare). - The only thing you need to do is BOIL BEFORE monthly USE. - After 12h you empty the cup, wash it with water and reinsert it. - It's very COMFORTABLE, EASY TO USE AND SIMPLY AMAZING BECAUSE I DO NOT NEED TO DEAL WITH IT. - And additionally, it's GREAT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. - I used to be very irritated due to menstrual products during my period, I hated needing to deal with it, the feeling of it, the insertion etc., but this really changed my life, my mood, my irritability. I FEEL MORE CALM, AND AT PEACE DURING MY PERIOD BECASUE OF THIS DISC. Product is exactly like the pictures. Pads - made me rash with the perfumes and I felt like i'm wearing a diaper. If ona. heavier flow, sometimes you would have some blood spill over during the night, whihc doesn't happen with discs. Tampons - you can't have them in for more than 3 h, and they cause cramps and the possibility of TSS. Reuasble pads - while they are nicer for the skin, good for the environment, they move around and I still feel like wearing a diaper. Also, you need to wash them and if you tarvel around that's a bit hard sometimes, but still doable. Cup - I though that would be the bets option, since you can use it for longer periods of time and can swim with it, it eneded up being horrible for me. I hated the process of inserting and it usually hurt, I hated the vacum, and even though I cut the steem, I could still feel it. All in all it was really not nice at all for me.

Love it! It’s so comfortable and better than the last one I had. It’s very good that it comes in 2 different size so you can use the one you need depending on how much you bleed. Will recommend this to everyone I know! Just remember that you can have fun with these and the guy will not mind it because they can barley feel it

Niet makkelijk in gebruik en zeer slap

As a long time cup user I decided to try the disc after getting an iud and experiencing annoying suction from the cup. This came with 2 sizes, I only used the large however for 2 cycles so far. It goes in really easily, and it's easy to adjust esp if you know where your cervix is. I liked that it would auto-empty everytime I went to pee, but then everytime it filled up it would auto-empty as well, when NOT on the toilet, which was annoying initially. Luckily I was wearing a pad for backup and I quickly learned that I cannot wear this disc without also wearing a pad because of the auto-emptying. But I realised it wasn't emptying completely at those times, only partially,which gave me to time to empty it fully on the toilet. I also do not have to remove the disc during a bowel movement, whereas I always had to remove the cup (it slides out on its own). Overall because of the auto-emptying feature I had to remove and reinsert the disc MUCH LESS than the cup on my heavy days, and when I do remove the disc it's much easier to reinsert. And that gives me a more relaxing experience with no more painful suctioning. As long as you don't mind wearing a pad for the overflow. To give perspective on my heaviest day I only manually removed it once in 12hrs to empty, and changed the pad twice. The rest auto-emptied while on the toilet. So I'm overall very pleased with it.

I have switched over to this as my diva cup has been sliding down and really irritating me (same size I’ve always used). So far it’s working great! Insertion was a bit odd at first but it only took me the first try to figure it out. I don’t feel it at all, hasn’t leaked so far and removal isn’t too bad. I started using it midway through my period so I haven’t used it with a heavy flow yet but nothing negative to say yet.
