A member asked:
I am ill of pads but i really hate the thought of using a tampon and the wondering, what is it like to use a soft cup, or menstrual cup?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Am told that: if the appropriate size and flexibility that it can be comfortable, doesn't leak, allows for swimming and other sports, lasts longer than a tampon & can be purchased as disposable or reusable.
