Cora Menstrual Cup (Size 1)

Before this one I've experienced only one other cup brand and it was a pretty basic bell shaped one that sells at a way lower cost. I took so much time researching cup info, reviews, and comparing cups.. (As well as how to measure my cervix. The knuckle rule is helpful 👀 !) I felt that with my cervix being on the lower side and having had a baby that this cup would work very well because the rim is apparently a bit larger than most/many others and the cup is a bit on the shorter side compared to others as well. Don't be fooled by that though, it can catch a flow! Pads and tampons just make it seem like we women leak way more than we do! Lol. With that said, though, it may not be the best option for anyone with a super heavy flow, but still could work for the lighter days 🤷🏻‍♀️ I do have my heavier days, but not so heavy.Anyway, upon first use I was highly satisfied that this cup was much more flexible than the first I'd tried (for easy insertion and removal!), it also has a bit of a dent on it for an easier folding process (mostly when removing it), and it's just firm enough at the rim for it to pop into place once inside. I even felt the pop & suction 👀 👌🏼, which was very satisfying and gave me instant assurance lol.Even so! I had bought myself some period underwear just in case. I'm a first-timer with such a thing haha, but lemme tell you it is worth getting yourself some of those just to feel extra comfortable and safe that in case of any possible leakage you know "you're covered." & if there's no leakage, they're still comfy for those red days 👍🏼 But! The days don't even feel red in this thing anyway bc the trash doesn't fill up with stinky wet ones and there's no leaky feeling down the butt cheeks :D JUST make sure you feel that suction and you're golden, but you gotta relax with it just like with putting in a tampon (& I learned that late in the game too 😗). If you've made it this far down my review, just wanna say I hope it's been helpful! I know there are many new to the cup life, such as myself.Just wanna also add that the tip is long enough to grip easily for removal and I appreciate the ridges on it for an easier grip as well (I avoid having my nails too long though 👀), but if you feel like it's too long you can cut it. All the best!
