Diva Disc - Comfortable, Reusable Menstrual Disc with Leakproof Shield - for Up to 12 Hours of Continuous Wear - 100% Medical Grade Silicone - Holds 7 Tampons of Flow - One Size Fits Most

The media could not be loaded. I actually bought this on Prime Day when it was discounted. Couldn't have come at the most perfect time, because literally the next day, I started. I'm not gonna lie, I've been so nervous to not only test it, but to purchase it. Simply because I've already bought so many reusable menstrual products that weren't so perfect and while I am intrigued to try different ones, it does get a little expensive. This Diva Disc, I've waited months to get it, and didn't sooner because I didn't want to keep throwing money away on my period. But the features were something that I was really interested in. I wanted so badly for the this to be a good one, because I decided, it was gonna be my last. I was giving up because I'm done trying.😤So in my most detailed review....Upon receiving it, it was indeed smaller than I expected. But that's okay. That's what I was hoping for. I own 2 other discs: The Hello Disc & the Cora Soft Fit Disc. It's smaller than both. The Hello was almost perfect, except that it was too rigid in the rim, maybe even a bit too firm for me. I was in so much pain after hours of use, I nearly cried. I hurt so bad. And perhaps it was a bit too big/wide, too. I auto-dumped at unexpected times.The Cora Soft, you can see why I got it. Because of the softness. It was excellent in comfort, however, it leaked. Constantly. I would be sitting doing nothing and it would leak!! So unfortunate. I could've stopped buying discs at that point...had it not been for that. Was let down tremendously.So now, I have the long anticipated Diva Disc. I've given this one much thought..now that I'm aware of my body and my needs. My main interests were of the leak-proof shield....to prevent accidental leaks, it's smaller & not as firm. I also like that it doesn't have a "finger-groove/notch", which is something I feel contributes to auto-dumping when you least expect it. I don't like 'em.Now that I've tried it: It's very, very comfortable. The texture is smooth, similar to the Cora Soft. Similar rim, but perhaps a hair firmer. Rest to fold and insert. The basket is a thin, soft membrane. I was a bit awestruck because it's such a cute little thing once you see it in person, and at the same time, kinda intimidating. It's noticeably "different" from the other discs in a lot of ways. I almost felt like it wouldn't work based upon it's design. But now, I can see it looks like it's actually built for your vagina than your basic round, circular discs. I like the grey color. It looks sleek and premium quality.Upon insertion, it was comfortable right off the bat. I was very impressed. Easy to place up over my pubic bone and the size is perfect. I was nervous with it being an "oval" shape, but it doesn't seem to be a problem for me. There's perhaps a little suction or seems, because of how well it conforms to your anatomy, but I could be wrong. It "fits like a glove"...kind of feeling, basically. Snug. Undetectable.The pull tab, is okay. I thought it was going to be bothersome to me, since it protrudes from the rim a little, but surprisingly, it's not noticeable. I do, however, have to tuck it in. It's stayed in place with no protrusion from my body. I do have a high cervix. (38F, No vaginal birth pregnancies).So far....no leaks. Not 100% sure if the leak-proof shield is entirely "leak-proof," because I did happen to auto-dump while on the toilet, but haven't had any leaks while bending down all other times, or at least reduced accidental leakage.... while NOT on the toilet. Which was the #1 reason why I bought this. I do lots of movement at work such as bending, squatting, running around, etc. It's very physical. While I don't mind auto-dumping while on the toilet, I do need the leak-proof shield to help prevent auto-dumping all other times. With that, I will have to update after some time to give a more experienced review. But so far, I think it's helped.When removing, the disc was messy, but not my fingers or hand. It was a decently clean removal. One can expect with a disc that there is going to be some mess. There was some around the disc and over upon the shield where it auto-dumped, but it held back the rest of it so you can gently remove from your body with ease until your ready to dump the disc. I would say the tab was helpful in getting a grip with the disc, as they can become slippery. I felt there was some security with it, although not entirely snug, I pinched and/or grasped using 3 fingers: My thumb, pointer and middle using both the tab and the rim to gently guide it out. Not a painful removal from out the cervix.Also, in my case, I always......ALWAYS start my period at work. On a Friday. During busy times. I don't understand how that happens, but it's been like that for years. It sucks, but this is the one disc I am counting on to suit my needs for those reasons entirely. I need something with ease of insertion and how quickly it can fit on a dime..... emphasis on the "quick." Quick, easy & done. No fumbling, no fighting to tuck the darn thing in. Just into the restroom and back out. This totally worked for me in terms of that. It conformed well to my body and adjusted naturally. I worked for a couple hours, then went out to dinner with my family afterwards. Zero leaks and never felt the disc itself. It's been amazing. I'm very impressed so far with the comfortability as well as ease of use. I was using Saalt soft cups up to this point, for the comfort and reliability factor. Even though I love them, the only reason why I didn't go back permanently to cups and wanted another disc, is because the cups were getting so difficult to open. I don't have time for all that. I'm constantly on the go. Rarely do I have time for myself when I need to be somewhere in a timely fashion. With my busy life, I need a reliable disc where I don't have to fight with it to open or suction or anything like that. I inserted this like a tampon and I went on with my day.So yes, so far, I'm really impressed with the Diva Disc. It's honestly everything I wanted and needed. Far exceeded my expectations even though I did have some doubt. I'm so pleased I made the splurge. I'm confident it will help me where and when I need it the most. On to work, on to the grocery store, on to appointments, etc. etc. etc. It is far less hassle than anything I've tried. I will try to update this review to see how it's going. But as of now, it's been such a breeze and I'm really enjoying it. 🏖️

I’ve switched to cups and discs after reading the study that came out from Berkeley that found LEAD and ARSENIC in nearly every brand of tampons (even the expensive, organic ones).Yes you will get a little blood on your fingers when removing this, but it wont hurt you. The loop makes it extremely easy to remove. It is just like inserting a tampon with added step of pushing the front up a little to secure it in place. It’s super easy though.My main worry was removing it in a public restroom, but that is never really necessary since you can leave it in for 12 hours. I just put it in in the morning and remove and clean it at night and it never fills up all the way.I find that it’s more comfortable than a menstrual cup for me and easier to put in and take out. I think this depends more on personal anatomy than anything.

I wanted to find a product that was reusable to save money in the long run. I had a diva cup many years ago but I stopped using it and I don’t remember why. I bought a second diva cup at the end of 2023 and over 2-3 months of using it I found that it was difficult for me to insert and get to open fully. It for some reason also made my menstrual cramps worse and I felt that it must be the suction even though it’s supposedly “light” suction that keeps it in place. I was freaked out of the cup also because after I took it out I could feel a slight… soreness(?). And on light days it wasn’t very practical for me to use the cup because of the work it took to insert it.Then I started looking for an alternative and discovered the disc and wanted to give it a try. When it arrived I followed the directions of boiling it and when my next cycle started I washed it with the special soap and tried it out. Let me just say that I LOVE IT. I don’t have any issues with leaking. on my heaviest day I empty and rinse it 3 times - morning, midday, and before bed. And actually I would say that I could get away with just morning and night. It doesn’t auto dump at all for me which I like. I do remove it before number 2. And I wash my private areas and cup again before reinserting afterwards.It’s the best menstrual product I have used. I don’t feel it at all. I’m not freaked out about the suction because it’s not suctioning like the cup did. It inserts similar to a tampon and removes similarly too. It’s so easy to insert and remove I can use it easily on light days. I feel that it’s cleaner than using sanitary pads and tampons. (And that is with NO disrespect to anyone who does!!)I can’t explain how much I love this product. I just love it. My one tip would be to relax fully upon removal. I don’t push or bear down when I remove this which is good. When I used the cup I felt I needed to lightly bear down to grip the cup and remove it and I didn’t feel very comfortable with that because of prolapse horror stories.If it helps I’m 31 and do not have children.

This saved me one day at work I left it in my locker and used it as a go to when I had no tampons. It never leaked. Pretty gross to take it out and have to sit with dirty hands until you can get out of the steal and to the sink so I advise to bring wipes and definately get the in the go cleaning shaker and fill it before you go in the stall. But as for the product TMI I have grant flow and expected it to leak and it didn't and after having twins I am very impressed. Love this and the cup also. Was comfortable to wear it's like nothing is there unlike tampons.
