Review: Size 1 review (+ 1 year update) - Now this may be a premature, and TMI review but when you're looking at a menstrual cup I'm assuming that you're okay with a bit of gross talk. This finally came in the post this morning, and after reading alot of advice that essentially said 'practice makes perfect' I decided I should do a dry run to hasten my getting used to it. Obviously I was aware that my being not on my period could affect the process, so to compensate I used a bit of water and tried decreasing the amount of friction through... Well, stimulation, if you get what I'm saying. (I went for a book, but hey that's me being a geek - and no it wasn't fifty shades of grey) I used an origami fold and it went in perfectly fine (I bought the size 1 - perfect for virgins and women who haven't given birth apparently, by the way I fulfill both of these criteria), I couldn't feel it even when sitting down and walking around, but during the first ten minutes I was very aware that I had something in me. After that, nada, I didn't feel a thing. I read that the stem sometimes makes it uncomfortable, but maybe it's something to do with my having a higher cervix but I had no discomfort from it at all. (Although ladies if you do have a high cervix, aparrently the diva cup works wonders - not so much with people with lower ones) Lunette is one of the more expensive brands, but I would say if you're a virgin/haven't given birth, AND you've never used a menstrual cup before, the lunette is probably for you. I haven't used size 2 so I can't really comment on that unfortunately as apparently the size 1 is more flexible and 'soft.' Just a tip if you're getting one, remember to BREAK THE SEAL before attempting to take it out (oh boy, I forgot about that), you'll save yourself some pain. There are some fabulous guides easily accessible by google, so you'll have a load of advice to draw from. Ultimately, the real test will be during my period, so I'll attempt to update this review then. However just two bits of further advice is to make sure you're getting the right size by visiting lunettes website and checking out their table. Also, please don't get a menstrual cup if you're grossed out by collected blood or exploring your anatomy, you'll be doing it. For now, ciao! UPDATE - After using the cup for one cycle, I can now assuredly say this thing is quite amazing. I was right in tackling the learning curve early, as I didn't really encounter any problems. (At one point it managed to get inverted, which was both quite amusing and heavily uncomfortable, but that was due to my trying to hasten the insertion process) On my heavier days, I had to double up using the cup and a pad because of overflowing, but that was because I wasn't comfortable with taking it out in a public bathroom, so I just left it in for about 6 hours at a time. The reason why I wasn't comfortable was because at one point I accidentally dropped the cup on my bathroom floor, and it genuinely looked like I had murdered someone. I wouldn't want to risk that in public. So until I'm more experienced in taking it out, I'm playing safe. On my lighter days, there was no leaking and I felt fresh! I even wore this on a 12 hour flight and it was brilliant, way more comfortable than wearing a pad. Cleaning it is easy, I just sterilised it as recommended by the guide which came with it, and then before I used it I rinsed it in boiling water. After that just quick rinses with water before each insertion will do I think, as I don't have any non-irritating soaps. I will put it in boiling water before each cycle though. No icky stuff gets caught on anything, so you don't really have to get down and dirty. The suction holes are big enough and can be cleaned with not much effort. My one is purple, so it won't be as easily discoloured as the clear one - although I did order the clear one and a purple one came in the post instead! I was going abroad the next day, so I just used it anyway but it was a bit of a 'meh' moment. And now for what I have noticed: Using this cup has completely eliminated stains. Many a time in the past, and I know this is a problem for many women, I woke up and stared downcast at a bloodied sheet in the morning. Well not with this! (if you double up with a pad on your heavier days). I've said goodbye to stains and feeling uncomfortable throughout the night. In the mornings I feel fresh and we'll rested, something you really need when you're on your period. I've also noticed a lack of odour. I have a bit of a sensitive nose so the smell of oxidised blood was never pleasant to me. Now however, I cannot smell anything! This is fantastic for anyone with a keen sense of smell. To sum up, this is an amazing product and I cannot sing it's praises enough. But please be aware, we all have different body structures so thoroughly research your model before buying a cup. What works for me may not work for you, but due to the lunettes size and softness, perhaps it is the closest thing to a universal cup? Size 1 at least. To conclude, having my period was always an inconvenience. But now, I can soldier through it feeling fresh! You can't really put a price on that. And it will only get better as I get more adept at using it, and I become aware of my own cycle and it's properties. I know I mentioned using pads in this review, which may be a bit counterproductive for those of you concerned with the environment. But that was just because of my inexperience in using the cup, and I'm sure in the future I won't have too. I hope this has been a useful review for you! Lunette - 1 year on. I have some additional information that might prove useful, so I thought I would update this review. I would like to focus on the importance of body type. I have noticed that some women are having problems inserting the size 1, with it being too big and therefore painful - this is the case for some women even if they have given birth! This is why I think it is very important to look at your bone structure/body type before getting a product like this. If, like me, you have a heavy blood flow and broad shoulders, hips and everything in between - despite being a virgin - I would say get a size 2. Retrospectively, that is what I think I should have done; I should have gone against advice and gotten the size 2, despite me not filling some of the criteria. Conversely, if you are petite, small boned and slender, you should probably lean more towards the size 1. I must admit however, I may just be an odd ball, body wise - I've always had very broad shoulders, thick feet and huge thighs even as a child, so I cannot claim that my advise is infallible! But I still think, for all you slender and thick women out there, this is something to keep in mind for sure - don't just go by the criteria, look at your body. Hopefully, this makes sense. Secondly, I would like to talk about smell. I have noticed a smell recently, and while it is not very pleasant it is also not very strong. It smells a bit like cauliflower… It is at its strongest right after I take it out, and the least noticeable after I wash it. I don't worry about it at all, because you can't smell it otherwise. Just something to note. The colour is also starting to fade a bit, but I never really cared about the colour to begin with. If by any chance you have a heavy flow and your cup is full, be warned! If you remove the seal you may get blood pouring down your hand and onto the floor, or on your trousers - both of which I have experienced. This has only happened on my heaviest days, and thankfully when I was at home, but I think if you are in public and your cup seems to be full, remove it with small movements and with caution or try taking it out before it gets full if possible. Now, for cramps, the thing I am most pleased about. My cramps are almost non-existent now! I cannot pin this exactly on the lunette, but it does seem to have helped with it at least a bit. My cramps used to be terrible and debilitating, but now I can carry on as usual. So does my 5 star rating persist after 1 year? You bet it does. I still think this is a life changing product, and I would recommend it to any woman.
Review: Great product. Easier than I thought. No more tampons! - Steep learning curve and I am sure I have not fully mastered it but it is definitely easier than I thought. I have now used it for one cycle and I am really pleased. I did have to spend some time googling questions and learning different techniques but I am really getting the hang of it. It is really amazing being able to wear for 12 hours, have no environmental waste and have a comfortable and secure fit. The cup itself is a nice texture, feels soft and of a high quality. It is easy to clean, insert and seems to "pop" open relatively easily. I am 34 and have had no children and, although I have fairly heavy flow, I went for the smaller size which seems to be the correct choice. I hope that it continues to impress and I no longer need to buy another tampon!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well worth the money - tips included in full review!
*by L***O on 14 September 2018*

I have to start by admitting that I was always one of those people who thought the idea of a menstrual cup was a little gross but after seeing a couple of videos on YouTube with people saying how much better they felt for it (less cramps and side effects!), I decided it was worth a go at least. I'm trying to reduce the amount of plastic I use little by little and when you read how many disposable sanitary products one woman uses in her life, this is a real way to make a big difference. Having used this for one cycle, I'm already so glad I gave it a try! I now see exactly why everyone was talking about how much more comfortable, easy and cleaner it felt to us the cup over disposable products and I don't think I will ever go back! The things I personally like are: - The comfort - honestly I can't even feel it most of the time! Unlike a tampon which is solid and static, the silicone of the cup moves with your body so that you would hardly know it was there. - The cleanliness - this was something that I never expected from using a cup - I feel cleaner than I ever have during a period and almost forgot I was having it at times! - The ease of use - another surprise - it took me around a day or two to get used to using the cup but now I have, it's really easy to use and very quick to empty and replace! - The peace of mind - cups can be worn for up to 12 hours and as they aren't absorbing like a tampon, the risk of TSS is extremely low. No more worrying if you sleep for over 8 hours! A few tips that I have learnt along the way are below, I won't go into detail but if you are easily grossed out by these things, be warned! - Before you buy a cup, find out which one will be best for you. I love the Lunette, it isn't too large and it is soft silicone, it also comes with a nice pouch to keep it out of the way when not in use but there are a lot on the market and everyone is different. Look up the "Put a cup in it" quiz online - if you answer a few questions, they will recommend the best one for you. (Having said that, all of my friends who have done the quiz since I told them how good this is all ended up with Lunette as well!) - Have a good read of the instructions when the cup arrives. There are also some great videos on the Lunette YouTube page with some tips as well as some really useful honest advice from other vloggers on there about cups in general and the Lunette. Watch them before you give it a go and it will help way more than words alone do! In particular, Sarah Tran's page on YouTube was a real help to me with her tips! - In terms of getting the cup in, I find the "C fold" the best for me as it seems easiest to hold but there are other folds, some are bigger, some are smaller. I had a couple of occasions where I couldn't get the cup to "pop" open but found that if I stood up fully and then bent back down, it had sorted itself so perhaps that was something about the angle I was stood at (squatting!) - Once inserted, Lunette recommend feeling around the edge of the cup to ensure it is fully opened. This ensures that you have a proper seal on it. I have checked every time and have had no leaks whatsoever but I definitely wouldn't have noticed the not popping open issue mentioned above if I hadn't done that check and I would have ended up with leaks. - I have had spotting once or twice immediately after emptying. This seems to essentially just be the bits not caught while you are changing but honestly it's such a small amount, I wouldn't worry. - Changing in the shower is a game changer! You can just empty away down the drain and obviously everything is all clean in the shower! - Once you have watched a couple of videos online, you will see a lot of people mentioning cutting the stem of the cup off for comfort if it protrudes. I found that the stem didn't protrude but that it was uncomfortable and caused almost an itchy feeling - I think perhaps it is the ridges which cause the uncomfort. I was concerned about needing the stem to remove the cup so didn't want to cut it all off at once so I did it in stages, cutting first above the first stem ridge but finding it still uncomfortable. In the end I cut to just above the highest stem ridge. That gives a little bit of stem to grab if needed and actually now makes the cup so much more comfortable - to the point that I can't even feel it most of the time!! - Removing the cup was the point I was most concerned about and felt like would be the most "icky". In terms of actual removal, the best tip I can give you that I found online and which works brilliantly (apologies if TMI!) is to squat down and to push as if you are going for a number 2! The muscles will then do a lot of the work for you and bring the cup lower so that you can easily grab the bottom of it. Remember that there is a seal on it and not to just pull it out as that will be very uncomfortable! Bring it out by pinching the base and moving it back and forth, the seal will break and come out. As for the "icky" factor - bizarrely it feels cleaner than a pad or tampon to me! You are only ever touching the outer cup where there is no blood and you pour it away and wash immediately! I've never had the cup more than even a third full when I've emptied it so it's not like it's full to the brim! - The amount you empty the cup will depend on your body and how often you need it. I find that I can empty in the morning, then again when I get home from work (avoiding the awkward changing in work toilets!) and then again just before bed. You can wear for up to 12 hours as long as the cup isn't too full but if you do need to change at work or in public, disabled or baby changing toilets are great for having a sink in them (obviously if there are disabled people or a parent and child waiting for those facilities, I'm not recommending going ahead of them!) - Finally on cleaning - there are cleaning products available through Lunette and other brands. Having done some research these are not an essential product, just an extra if you want them. It is perfectly fine to simply boil the cup between cycles and to rinse in hot water when emptying. That said, I have seen that the Lunette wipes can be used in place of boiling the cup between cycles and so I will likely buy a pack of those for when I am on holiday and boiling isn't an option.
