Flex Disc

So much better than tampons! More comfortable. You can use the bathroom. Not as much suction as a cup, so more comfortable to put in and get back out. Much easier to get out again. And it can stay in place for hours. A genius invention! Edit: I am finding on really heavy days I’m getting quite a bit of leakage which I am a bit baffled about

Easy to use

Benn waiting for these to come back in stock, so easy to use, sooo comfortable, I love them

I wanted this to be what saved me for a couple days a month, but unfortunately it only really slows it down a little and sometimes not at all. I have menorrhagia so I bleed an absolutely insane amount, and so far the only thing that has worked somewhat is an XL period cup. I tried these in hopes I could have a little more freedom and time between toilet visits, but unfortunately they don't do anything a cup wouldn't do better. I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, that might be why they don't work for me; my tissue is quite soft and I tend to sit in a lot of different positions, which might make the disc self empty. On day 3 when I have what might be considered a normal amount of bleeding, these discs work a treat and I have 0 incidents. I will be using them for day 3 and 4 outings, but for day 1 and 2 I will go back to the cup until I can get permanent solution.

I can't get over how comfortable them discs are. Sport, swim. They don't leak. Definetly reduce cramps. Love it

I bought this as I want to menstrual invest in more reusable products. These cups are similar to one I am thinking of, but I wanted to see how the style would sit. I chose these because they are a cheaper, disposable and individually wrapped (and because of this any spares can be gifted to someone else) alternative for a trial run. Sadly, both attempts failed. They would not stay in place. I do not think it was the product at all. It is purely down to internally not being compatible or strong enough to hold it in the correct place, so if you have any gynaecological issues like me, they likely won't be any good. The product itself is great. Discreet, recyclable packaging, lightweight, soft enough to compress to insert, but reassuringly strong to know it won't be easily squished out of place by day to day moving around. For those who don't want tampons or pads, this would be a good alternative.

I had high hopes for this. When I tried it just for my period it was excellent - can't feel a thing and lasts for ages! I had tried to Intima menstrual disk which is similar but this you could feel even less. However, I bought them because of their promise they could be used for mess free sex. Oh boy, was I wrong. There was a significant mess and it really ruined the mood. Couldn't feel it whilst it was in but yeah it leaked despite trying multiple positions. Could be because of my own anatomy or my partners (my cervix is quite low), but yeah sadly it did not work for me.

I'd like to return this as it's not the product I thought it was. It's unopened. Can I return it?

Il prodotto è un filino costoso. I produttori dicono che usato continuativamente consente di inquinare meno che con i normali assorbenti... Peccato che dovendone cambiare uno ogni 12 ore la spesa sia eccessiva. Sono però fantastici da usare occasionalmente per una giornata in piscina o per tutti gli usi che volete voi in cui il flusso crea disagio. Indossati, non si sentono affatto. Ci vuole solo un po' di confidenza con il proprio corpo, soprattutto per rimuoverli, ma secondo me battono le coppette mestruali su tutti i fronti.

I bought the disposable discs because they were advertised as ‘mess-free period s.x’ and ‘barely noticeable.’ Honestly, I don’t see how that could be true. The ring is large, tall, and rigid, and both my partner and I could feel it, very uncomfortable. That said, I still find it a better alternative to tampons.

Awkward. Uncomfortable. Will stick with a proper cup. Definitely can’t be used for intimate times during ones period, to avoid the messy clean up, as it has been suggested.. the ring is like the top off a juice container lol..

I've tried pretty much every period product out there (pads, tampons, menstrual cups, and menstrual discs) and i use them all. sometimes I even use two products together (pad+tampon my go to duo), depending on where I'm going and how heavy my flow is that day. there isn't one perfect option for every situation, and I switch between them depending on what I'm doing. the first time I tried the flex menstrual disc was before a brazilian laser hair removal appointment. i knew a tampon or menstrual cup would technically be fine, but I still wasn't comfortable with the possibility of the tampon string or the little stem of the menstrual cup being visible. even though the cup sits higher inside the body, the stem can sometimes peek out when your pelvic muscles are relaxed, like when you're lying on your back in the butterfly position. since the menstrual disc sits differently and doesn't have anything hanging outside the body, it seemed like the perfect solution. I inserted the disc around 8 a.m. before heading to work and completely forgot it was there. i went through my entire workday, had my laser appointment later that afternoon, and everything went perfectly. it was comfortable, completely invisible, and I never felt like it was there. i was honestly impressed. the only downside came later. i got home around 6 p.m., and the second I got out of my car, it suddenly started leaking. it was honestly a disaster and pretty disappointing. looking back, though, I had been wearing the same disc for about 10 hours on a fairly heavy-flow day, so I probably just pushed it past its limit. even though discs can hold a lot, they're not magic. on heavier days, they still need to be emptied or changed regularly. i also have to mention that inserting and removing a menstrual disc can be pretty messy, especially on heavier days. unlike a tampon, you're definitely going to get your fingers dirty. removal can also be tricky because the disc sits tucked into a small pocket just behind your pubic bone. if it gets pushed a little farther back than usual, it can be difficult to reach the rim with your finger to hook it and pull it out. one thing I kept hearing before trying a menstrual disc was that you can have sex while wearing one. of course, I had to test it. i'll be honest, it didn't work out the way I expected. based on my experience, I think it might work for some couples, especially if your partner is smaller or if your anatomy is different. the disc kept getting pushed farther inside. with penetration, the disc kept getting pushed farther inside so I could barely reach it afterward. removing it became much more difficult than usual, and honestly, the whole experience wasn't worth it. if you're buying a menstrual disc mainly because you've heard you can have mess-free period sex with it, I'd keep your expectations realistic. I've also seen a lot of people say that menstrual discs help reduce period cramps. personally, I can't really agree or disagree with that because I usually don't get menstrual cramps, so I didn't notice any difference. overall, I'm really glad I tried the flex menstrual disc. it has become another option, especially for situations where I don't want a visible tampon string or menstrual cup stem. It's comfortable, holds a lot, and once you get used to inserting and removing it, it's easy to wear. just be mindful of how long you've had it in on heavy-flow days.

Game changer. So easy to use. So reliable. I’ve noticed my cramps are less intense when using the flex disc. So happy I decided to take the plunge and try this out.
