Bought model 2 because I am both over 30 and have had 2 large babies. I have trouble bleeding around newly inserted tampons 5 minutes later. Was at my wits end and decided to try this after my dr's recommendation. So I reluctantly purchased this $30 item only to find it wasn't going to work. Highly disappointed.

Do your research on menstrual cups prior to purchasing. I did not. I am 38 and have never had a child. According to their instructions I should use the size 2. I knew better and ordered size 1. It is too big. Getting it in was painful. Getting it to unfold was nearly impossible. Once or twice I succeeded only to end up in excruciating pain a few hours later. I threw it away. I then researched the different cups, how to “measure” yourself to know which cup would be best for you and your lifestyle. I am currently using a lunette cup with little issue. I think I may be a bit too active for its softness but I cannot use a tougher one as it hurts me. Anyway, it’s a lot more complicated than I knew to find the right cup for you. Don’t make the mistake I did! Research first!

Ugh, awful. I've been using softcups for 15 years, so My hooch and I are well-acquainted and understand eachother. But the paragard IUD has turned a cup a day into a cup an hour, so I figured this would save some money. I expected this thing to be no sweat. Wrong! It is stiff, bulky, awkward and sucks-literally. I mean like vaccuum-sucks. Your cervix displaces much of its capacity and it leaks. And by leaks, I mean from la-dee-dah minding my own business to bloody crime scene in 3.6 seconds. The last time I tried changing it in the bathroom at work, the janitor must have needed a fire hose and a hazmat suit. I got so frustrated that I slammed it into the tampon can. That was $30 dang bucks.

Way too big. I'm 26 have had 3 children. 1 c-section, 2 vag. Feels too big. Hurts. Uncomfortable. Can't use.

I thought to myself... wow this would be amazing. I ordered it after reading all the reviews... and put it in. I was scared, but got it in eventually. I left it in for awhile I couldn't feel it, however when I went to take it out I couldn't get it out! I tried and tried and tried. I eventually had to go to an urgent care for them to take it out (talk about embarrassing!) The suction was so strong and the little piece you're supposed to grab ahold of is so short I just couldn't do it. Needless to say I threw this thing away and never looked back! I'll stick to regular tampons from now on!

Horrible experience. The diva cup actually suctioned itself to my cervix in which case I had to have Dr. remove it. Needless to say, it was a very unpleasant experience. I'm disappointed because I really wanted to like it. This concept is great, but it's not for everyone.

I see a lot of 5 star ratings, so maybe it's just me, but mine is too big! Way too big! I really love the idea, and tried several times to make it work, but it hurts. I am following the instructions. I know I have it in right. It's just too wide for me. I ended up throwing mine away.

I'll tell you anything I swear! Just don't make me wear it again! I'll start off by saying, "OWW!" I bought this under recommendation of a friend, she talked it up and down about how amazing it was and so convenient and comfortable, like a flower blossoming between your thighs... we are no longer on speaking terms. First day it seemed to go okay, application was a bit of a bitch and took 10 min longer than expected. Then came extraction... Let me tell you, the sound and the sensation that occur during removal process is both horrifying and torturous. Removal took twice as long as insertion and there were tears and swears aplenty involved. However it has been said I am a stubborn woman and I decided I would give it another try the next day, giving my sore hooha a rest. The next day insertion was not much better, it seems to have a few issues with flexibility, unfortunately for me. As well as it being dry as a mummy in a tomb. I'm not asking much, but a little special lube would go a long way. Day was fine but removal that night was worse than before and I swore on my first born thay Canada would burn for producing such a device to torture women. That was, if I could still have children after it finished tearing my cervix from my uterus and making me chant bad words that my grandma would grab a soap bar and the Bible for. All in all it sucks, don't do it. :/

Barcode didn’t work - fraudulent product and not returnable. Will be throwing away. Waste of money.

Too big for me. I am over 30 and never given birth. I am a petite lady, so that could be it. If hesitant, try smaller one first.
