Life saver
Incredible.I tried a cup once and it was a nightmare. It scared me off for a long time. I decided to try the disposable discs after a moment of reconsideration and it was fantastic. It went so well I bought the reusable one and it’s my first cycle with it, I’m sold.I have severe cramps, and I have noticed a massive difference with these. I still get them, particularly bad on day one, but when I used tamps I would cramp full time all week. With these, I almost didn’t have any. I felt day one, and the rest of the time it was a rare ache here and there. Some days nothing at all.I love that I can sleep with them. I barely leaked overnight on my heaviest day (I normally do with tamps, even the extra supers, and I have to set alarms to change them because even with overnight pads I’ve had mishaps). I only needed a panty liner for that one night!One thing though, I could auto dump with the disposable option. I also had a few leaks with the disposables, on my heaviest day. With this reusable option, I cannot seem to auto dump. It’s said that’s because with the size and composition it’s a better fit for my body. That’s fine, I can deal with that. But it’s a little disappointing because I enjoyed the auto dump spring my heaviest days when I didn’t want to need longer breaks at work or on the go to handle that. I have decided to use disposables during that time instead so I could utilize that, but the rest of my period the reusable is great.Now about placement. I am in my late 30s, one delivery by c section. I watched multiple videos online and was nervous about getting it right and getting it out. I found it totally easy to get it in and tucked my first try. It was totally comfortable, didn’t feel it at all. The disposable ones tend to slip on me while using the restroom and need to be readjusted, but this reusable one doesn’t do that. Removing it was a bit of a learning curve. The disposable ones were easier to remove for me, the thinner lining and more pronounced edge made quick work of hooking my finger under it and pulling it out. This one’s more flush and rounded and the material made it a little more difficult to do that. I had a mess my first attempt, and I was glad I tried that at home where the sink is nearby and I had plenty of clean up options. The second time, I tried to move more slowly and get the feel for it, but it fell in the toilet. I never had that happen with the disposable ones and it was pretty annoying and gross. I was not at home for that situation, it was a public restroom, so I just had to let that one go. Thankfully I bought multiples, which I HIGHLY suggest for just that situation.But after that I have seemed to have figured it out and no longer having any difficulty with it.

So comfy! No leaks! Saving money!
In love so far! I have an extremely heavy flow and was sick of burning through tampons and pads. A few months ago I got the Flex disposable discs to test them out. Took a bit of trial and error but once I got it they were great. I decided to get a reusable one and ended up getting the Cora Disc and the Diva Disc to try. Neither worked for me and I got discouraged spending money on them. I went back to tampons for a bit and recently decided to retry the disposable ones and realized maybe they made a reusable with the same shape and style. Turns out they do (don’t know why I never checked before) and it works exactly the same as the disposable for me! I can wear it 12 hours with minimal to no leaking (I’ve still been using with a pad until I feel more confident with it), it auto empties when using the bathroom, and so comfortable it’s like it’s not even there. On lighter days I use it with only period panties. This is such as life saver and money saver!

Great tampon/pad/cup replacement
It’s not for everyone – I have a friend who couldn’t quite make it work. But for me, it’s been great! My favorite part is that I can put it in in the morning and can be out all day without needing to change it. I can empty it when I go pee without taking it out so it’s a no-mess situation during the day. You do have to be mindful to go to the bathroom every 1-3 hours if you have a heavy flow so you can empty it. Once it’s too full, the seal will break and it leaks very quickly. I would recommend wearing with a pad the first couple times until you know for sure it’s going to work for you (especially overnight).It’s pretty easy to insert – you squeeze it in half and insert it until the outside rip is tucked behind your pubic bone. Getting it out is a mess, not going to lie. Highly recommend emptying in the shower when you can for easy clean up. My toilet is right next to my sink, so I turn the water in the sink on before I empty it and can reach the sink to clean my hands and rinse the disc when I’m not in the shower.Maintenance – it will start to stain and get a nasty smell, especially if you leave it in too long. No big deal – buy some hydrogen peroxide and soak the disc in it for a couple hours. It will get rid of the smell and the staining.It’s not perfect, but it’s better than tampons, pads, or menstrual cups (in my humble opinion!)

Super happy that Amazon.ca carries the Flex Reusable Disc since we can’t find the reusable disc in stores here in Toronto (stores only carry the disposables). Well as you can see, I have both the reusable and the disposable discs: I bought the disposable one first to see if liked it enough to get the reusable one. I love both and found the reusable disc slightly more comfortable than the disposable disc!Flex is the first brand of menstrual discs I ever used and previously I had been using the Diva Cup for years. I have no idea why it took me THIS LONG to discover menstrual discs. I can honestly say, I will only use the Diva Cup if I’m swimming in the ocean (and I don’t touch tampons by the way). Why won’t I use the menstrual disc when swimming in the ocean? Okay ladies, well, if you’re having fun snorkelling in the ocean for a couple of hours, you’re probably gonna want to pee in the ocean (just not with any humans near you out of courtesy). And well, when you pee, the disc will self-empty and release blood and you don’t want blood in the ocean (um, it could attrack a shark). So for anyone who swims in the ocean regularly or is heading on a tropical vacation during that time of the month, just keep this in mind as a small safety tip 😉In terms of using the menstrual disc during intimacy, this thing is AMAZING! 😅 Your partner probably won’t notice or feel the disc.I honestly love the Flex menstrual disc and highly recommend it. And I did quite a bit of research prior to my purchase and found that Flex is the only reusable disc that does not have dye/colour on the disc which was important to me. Now, I was shocked when I saw the size of the disc for the first time: my partner was shocked too and we both wondered how it was going to fit in there 🤣 well, it fits. And it fits quite easily!! And the good news is that I don’t feel it at all (unlike the diva cup which you can kind of feel). And compared to the diva cup, for any ladies who have experience with the diva cup, this menstrual disc is a breeze to remove: I often struggled to pull out the diva cup in comparison and I find the diva cup a lot messier since it does not self empty like this Flex disc.Hope this review helps! ☺️

Couldn’t recommend it enough. I’m 28 and have never used a tampon, or cup in my life – pads only, so this was a completely new, and somewhat daunting experience. I was scared it would get stuck inside, which is the reason I never bought a cup, but this one seemed less likely to create a hard to break suction and get stuck, so I went for it. I definitely struggled the first couple tries to get it in properly, but on my 3rd attempt I did it perfectly and now have no issues. I have no leakage, I can’t feel it, and if I didn’t experience pain (I have Endo) then I wouldn’t even know I was on my period. Absolute game changer, sucks I’ve spent 14 years menstruating without this lol. Only downside is price, however I would pay that all day long for the benefits, and it is a bit messy changing it, but you only have to do it once every 12 hours, so it’s no big deal having a bit of a mess twice a day. And it’s super easy to take out which was my biggest concern, will never use another period product again

i’m gonna feed back on a few bits that are super relevant.- it doesn’t self empty quite as well as the disposables do.- it’s comfortable and you can’t feel it in place- you’ll never go back to tampons again, this is so much more practical- it is messy to empty, you need a bathroom with a sink to wash your hands after to plan removal for bedtime- I’ve never leaked with flex, either disposable, if you import them from the states, or this reusable silicone one.- it feels cleaner than regular sanitary items to use, ‘nipping’ to the loo is so much easier- if you’re a sports person, this is your go to, especially sports where you’re unable to get to a loo for hours – golf, tennis, football etc- you can do the deed with it in place, it doesn’t shift or move, but it is distracting for your partner cos they can feel it. if you’re after the cleaner experience this will tick the box, but you’re only gonna want to remove it to clean it after anyway (in my opinion) so if you’re not bothered to begin with, just remove it first.- to get your head around the way these work, it sits vertically not horizontally. you put it in like a tampon without an applicator, it slots into place intuitively about as high up as your index finger. you hook it back out with your finger, you might have to bear down a little. it sounds way more complicated than it actually is.- all day comfort, no stress, no leaks, to toxic shock and you can sleep in it no problem.- it just cleans with handwashing.- worth noting for anyone who already uses the disposable flex that this needs a little more concentration to remove, not in a bad way, just in a different way because its all silicone.- it air dries quickly and comes with a little canvas bag to store it in.- worth one final note – if you like to sleep without clothes, this is the purchase for you.

This is the best period product I’ve used!No waste, not having to look for organic products anymore and so, so much easier and more comfortable than any cup I’ve tried!If you’re in doubt if it works for you, first buy their disposable one, it’s pretty similar, except this one is made of silicone – very soft silicone on the bottom.
