*Me sat half naked in the bathroom trying to figure it out*
Me right now
same 😭😭
🤣🤣🤣 me, right now ! Thank you for this relatable comment 😅
N Madikizela anytime 😂
This is me right now. Im struggling
I’ve been in the bathroom for 30 minutes and i was near to crying
I relate to that a lot
same
Same bro😭 i feel you!!😭
Seriously same. I’m using it for the first time and I was balling my eyes out last night cause it kept leaking and wouldn’t open correctly!
Tabatha Conn but this vid helped a lot!! For me it’s easier now
This is the only girl who can actually explain it rather than saying "then insert, and your done" Thank you!!!!
Glad I could help!
Ikr, I'll going to try it. Everyone say, fold, push it in, twist and you are good to go. No I'm not, it failed to open.
@@brendakabanda2181 my issue exactly! I came back to RUclips. I only need my cup for like a day or two. Sometimes I'd be good.. others not so much.
I knowwww omigosh
@Miriam Fease I had the same issue when I first tried in several different standing and sitting positions. Eventually I had to add a tiny bit of lube to my opening, then clean my hands and dry everything else. Then I had to lay down (on a towel just in case it took awhile) and it went right in. Like surprisingly quick. Worth a shot anyway.
Watched this vid, twice and tried for about 20mins (I have long false nails) however I wore for 8 hours and was completely leak free, my liner was dry, beginners luck or great instructions?!?
Pray for me, I'm going to try it. I did it the first day and was good, I failed completely on the 2nd day. I'm going to try out today.
Brenda Kabanda how’d you do?
But, I'm using pads rn
How do you girls even have space to feel for the cup inside you? Lol I feel I never have space for my cup and fingers at the same time.
same
i thought the same, which is why i was hesitant, but the vagina is super stretchy and it might be uncomfortable but it doesn't hurt and there's always space
Gijay Sorez at first i felt like it was pretty tight too but it's not like you'll hurt yourself if you're careful so a bit of squeezing your finger around the sides to check that it's open is totally fine
Maybe you have fat fingers
I try to drag it down a little then reach with one finger and press it to the cups edge then i just pull it out. It can also help to squat.
holy shit i tried for like at least 30 times and I finally have it in correctly! ACHIEVEMENT OF 2019, GOODBYE PADS
update: i had to try my first removal at school and i literally splashed the content on the wall. Thank God I'm not on my period yet.
Hey plz tell me how did u insert it ?
It's really difficult for me it isn't going inside
What position is best for it? Plz let me know
Sameer pookot i haven’t tried using my diva cup yet but many people are saying to try different positions and see what’s best for you. it’s different for everyone !
Short nails are a must
First full day with my Lena cup and I said that this evening...my nails must be short during my period cause insertion and long nails do not mix!!
I do it with long nails..ik the struggle
You can do it with long nails if you put a glove on! (One of those white thin ones for cleaning, they are usually used for cleaning. Idk how exactly they're called but it's a neat thing for lesbians with long nails as well)
Nasya Tan I bite my nails guess I’m sorted 😂
sunny philosopher Its called latex gloves
I saw a thousand videos on how to use a menstrual cup for months before I actually got myself to use one. I have watched your videos a hundred times and I’m glad to say IT ALL REALLY WORKS!! Thanks to you I haven’t had a single leak in my entire cycle. NOT ONE SINGLE LEAK!!!!!! My period was cleaner than when i used pads; while tampons leaked 85% of the time (set aside the sharp shooting pain). With my menstrual cup, i was more active than my regular days; I sprinted, worked out, did all i can to check out the degree of “leakproof-ness”; and it worked like magic. I’m SO GLAD I could make it happen, THANKS TO YOU @Sarah Tran
Prajakta Godse you have no idea how happy this makes me to read this!!! Congrats to a smooth transition to menstrual cups!!! I hope you spread the menstrual cup movement! Thank you for coming back to share your successful experience! I hope others read this and gain a bit of confidence that they can experience what you are experiencing!! Wooo!!!
Sarah Tran the menstrual cup movement is definitely one of my life missions now. I live in India, and it’s a bit difficult for people (especially men) to accept ANYTHING inserted inside a woman’s body like that. Though things are changing now, and i have an extremely open-minded mother; so there is hope. Menstrual cups are one of the best things i have come across in my life; it relieved me from my cramps, rashes, itchiness, diaper discomfort, odour, disturbed sleep, and so much more just cuz it freed my mind from the BURDEN of being on my period. And one of the best parts is it’s eco friendly and reusable at a fraction of the cost!!! Menstrual cups are the coconut oil of feminine hygiene! 😂
Again thanks a ton for your video 😁🤗
Which one do you use that doesn't leak at all?
Totto Chan i use WOW Freedom cup. I don’t know if it’s available outside India. You’ll have to check it out 😊
Plz tell me which field of theenstrual cup will you recommend for the one who use it for the first time
Today is my first day trying to insert it and it just won't go in.. it pops open at the opening only.. what should i do?? Anyone there who experienced something like this?
Try the half diamond fold hold your cup tightly while inserting bear down on the the cup rotate a little then once it pops open squeeze the base a couple time to remove excess air
Hot tip: If you have a sensitive bladder or general sensitivity, you should insert it with the folded part towards your back, so when it “pops” it hits downwards instead of against your bladder.
This is so helpful! Thanks
This saved me!!! Was struggling to get the whole thing in but when I was holding it upwards it just hurts but when I finally turned it backwards suddenly it went in, not I get it when everyone said pushed towards back! This is a lifesaver thank you!!!
So glad it helped! 🎉 I had to try for literally years until I figured that out. Wish someone would’ve told me ‘cause it HURT 😂
So I’m three years late, but I had to buy a cup instead of pads or tampons in the midst of the COVID-19 freakout thanks to hoarders stocking up the the apocalypse 😭 I don’t think I’d have ever got the cup up there without this video. I wish you good karma, man!
Kathleen I just bought my first one, lAst month before all this craziness happened and I’m so glad I did because I wouldn’t want to go to the store just to get pads. I still trying to get use to it but is on,y day one for me.
I did the same thing!
Omg I also got the cup because of this covid19 going on. I just started freaking out about what if you cant find pads or tampons. But I've been wanting to try it out for a long time. I'm so happy I did. No toxic chemicals to worry about and safe for the environment.
same here!!!
Kathleen 😄😄
I tried doing it myself last month during my cycle and I cried and was so frustrated. I watched this video today and got it the first try. Thank you so much!!
Pls help me out..I am unable to insert the cup comletely in..I am able to insert only a bit more than half of it. On forcing it inside,it pains.I would be grateful to u if u could guide me .🥺😞
@@spb1237same with me I couldn't even insert a little in
@@spb1237try a smaller size
@@spb1237omg, i’m struggling like u too 😭😭, have u success yet? if yes then plz help me
@@phamgianghi9705 Try to insert it not directly upward but more to your back. Hope it helps
I just wanted to let you know that this video was more helpful to my daughter than the "official" one made by "DivaCup". There is no substitute for plain talk and personal expereince.
It was so comforting to hear that it took you five cycles to figure it out. My third cycle with my cup is coming up this week and I’m determined to get it, but I also want to go easy on myself if I don’t.
she called it a peach lol
Jessica Kramer lol. I thought the same.
Jessica Kramer Someone isn't comfortable using the proper titles for lady bits.
@@anastaciamontelongo2429 you can but this was definitely better
🍑
Lol she said peach and I was like girl your peach is your ass lol jk
My huge goal for this year is to master the menstrual cup
I still haven't been able to get the cup to work for me. It's really frustrating me because I tried your method but it doesnt seem like it's going in! It goes in a little bit and then it starts to hurt trying to push it in even more and then it pops open too soon and it hurts Dx! I don't want to give up but this is really really hard for me and painful :/ please help! My patience is running out :(
Are you sure you're angling it the right way? Maybe you're just pushing against a wall?
Same thing happens to me
Same here. This method was very painful for me.
same for me!
Same :(
why it's like pushing onto a wall.....like it's not going in???😭
You mastered it the 4th time? I've been practicing for a year lmao. I refuse to go back to tampons but I am so sick of bleeding everywhere. hopefully this works
+mutha love Let me know if these tips helped ya! Glad to hear you are determined!
Im in the same boat. So frustrating
I bought a cup with the ongoing hype about menstrual cups... I tried for two days, I couldn't even get it half way, because honestly I didn't know how to insert it properly, or I didn't know what position the cup is supposed to be inside my body. Every video in RUclips just says 'insert it into your vagina and you're done" ., To be honest nothing infuriates more than that sentence! I was almost on the verge of giving up when I saw your video, it's my third day today and I am going to keep trying until I get it right, thanks to you. Really! The part where u explain, hold the cup until the bend is inside and then slowly maneuver it with fingers.. that's the part I really needed to hear.. thank you so much, thank you for giving me the courage to continue trying!
First time user and thanks to you, I've been one of the lucky ones who got it on her first go!! So stoked. Thank you!
+H Loretz YAY! Congrats! :) I hope you love it!
Um Hi. I know it's 2 years later but did it hurt a lot? Because it hurts me so badly, plus it doesn't even pop open
Lucky you! I saw her video after I put it in my first time lol now I’m laying on my bed scared I did it wrong
LillieGhoul you could possible need a different shaped cup. I hear the lunette is really great but you should have pain. Also be sure to relax by taking deep breaths and exhale with a relaxed face. Sounds funny but it helps
LillieGhoul maybe you need a softer cup? :)
If only 17th time was a charm 😔
I have officially mastered this on my first cycle. Thank you!!!! by the way, this might be helpful to some: I do the push down fold as well but I insert it upside down so the part that needs to pop open is facing down which makes it so much easier. I feel the top part is too sensitive to touch.
thank you!
I used this method! Total game changer!!
You genius
Hmm I might try this. Always looking for new methods! Thanks 😊
Ah yeah because when you try to check the top part then you are touching bone and your pee canal right? So it's uncomfortable or even painful...
I fainted, so that’s that. Probably great tips tho, if you don’t faint like moi😌
I’m so sorry!
AHHHHH I already bought a menstrual cup weeks ago and I just got my period and I'm scared of trying it
Hey Sarah! I just wanted to let you know, I did so much research before using my cup the first time and I came across your video and did exactly what you said. This has been the best experience ever! I got it in comfortably the FIRST try! Thank you so much. Life changed! #menstrualfreedom
Love you!
I am so happy to hear that! And glad that I could help where I could. Thank you for coming back on here to share that! I love hearing stories like this. 💕
It does not pop after insert
I'm about ready to toss mine away. I've tried different folds and lubrication and can't get it to slide in without it hurting. I also can't get it to insert further in than the opening. Not a virgin and tampons don't hurt but this menstrual cup is defeating me. I keep pinching myself when I try to turn it because there's no room to feel around. Anything else that might help?
SpillMyHeartForYou so I don't have first hand experience (I'm trying out a soft cup before I commit to a long term cup) but I've read a lot of reviews. have you tried getting a smaller or softer one? I've heard the diva cup is very hard but others are softer. precious star pads reviews a crap ton of cups and talks all about cervix height, cup hardness etc. good luck!
SpillMyHeartForYou yeah i would try another one as well
I use the cfold method and I release the fold once I know the lip of the cup is in because it hurts like a biatch if you release BEFORE that. THEN I turn the cup and feel around to make sure it's fully open (the cup is still mostly outside of you while you're doing this). Then I bear down while pushing the cup up despite her advice to contract. After bearing down your body naturally CONTRACTS as it goes back to neutral. That dual action has helped me and once the cup is all snugly in I'm good. It also took me several cycles to get it.
So, weird tip, but here goes. Open your mouth and relax your jaw muscles, then focus on your forehead. This relaxes the vagina muscles. I know it's weird, but if you're anticipating the cup insertion, you might be tensing up. Especially if it hurt the first time (now you're expecting pain, so you're bracing for pain). You can also try a smaller cup, and I would recommend the "7 fold", it seems to be the winner with smaller openings. Last tip, try sitting if you are squatting or squatting if you are sitting. Everything I read said to squat, but once I switched to sitting I was golden. (Legs VERY far apart either way-like to the point where it's almost awkward) Once you get the first part in, make sure to "bear down" like you are trying to have a bowl movement. I hope that helps. Good luck!
bishopsgyal "Then I bear down while pushing the cup up despite her advice to contract. After bearing down your body naturally CONTRACTS as it goes back to neutral." That sounds like a great tip, thanks
so you’re telling me there’s room for my finger and the cup? 😂
there’s room for a child i think ur good
YAY! I GOT THE HANG OF IT!!! :)
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😁
👍👌 awesome video!!
hey do you use your canon t3i with a different lens or the one that comes with it?
Stock lens! 18-55mm, I have a 40mm but it's not ideal for filming in this set up.
+sarahhtranTV
thanks again!
Someone please help me. I've been trying inserting the menstrual cup but when I am halfway, it hurts so bad and I end up pulling it right away or still try to push it in but the pain is unbearable and I give up on insertion. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I already followed instructions such as to relax the muscles down there but still no good result.
I think the cup is bigger for you... I mean you might need a small cup
did it work for u now or did u just stop using it?
UPDATE: hey guys, it's all good now. thanks for all of your replies.
@@susieannedoromal1291 how did you resolve the pain issue?
I can't get mine in 😭 it keeps popping open and coming back out and it hurts!
I'm sore 😭
Did you mastered it?
Same I can’t get it
@@maddybrown7586 I have been able to insert it, not well placed, but it is a step. I recommend you insert it all the way round (if that makes sense)
@@maddybrown7586 perior attire's videos says what I mean if you want to check it out
Beka Jadyn thank you so much! I’ll check it out!
lol it hurts so much when i try to get it in (it doesn't even get in, but it hurts already). i was thinking of giving up but this girl right here told me not to give up. I'll try again. thank you
Try the half diamond fold smaller insertion
Thank you for the video. This is my second cycle with this cup, and having leaked again I was ready to toss it out. On a whim I turned to RUclips for advice and stumbled upon your video and your tips; and so I marched back into the restroom with cup in hand. Thanks for the inspiration.
Glad I could help! :)
Your video is very helpful , so thank you .
jan8919 w
Dis is my first cycle with d cup bt still there is a problem of leakage every time ...wat should I do ..y it won't open inside
Same here.... I am also facing leaking problem.... The cup is not opening after attempting several times which causes pain to me.... I just worried about what should I do now, whether to use it or give up and go back to pad .....
This video is 4 years old but I just want to say thank you for this. I've been trying with no luck. It didn't occur to me to actively relax my muscles!
Thank you so much! It was my first time using the cup, and I got it in after the first try. Your video was really helpful! And I love using the cup. I did it in the bath tub, and your comment on making sure to first relax all the muscles was especially helpful. The recommendation of doing the kegel contractions while putting in and removing the cup, was also super helpful. I realize I don't have to pull or insert much with my hands, they are there just to provide a gentle tug or direction, but the big - V muscles do all the work. Thank you so much once again.
I'm 15 years old and got my first ever cup today. I tried to insert it so many times but it didnt feel right and hurt like crazy. I just found your video and was surprised you actually explain how to insert it rather than just saying fold insert and bam your done. I got it on the first try after waching your video so thank you =D
I am the same age as yours. Doesn't it hurt if u pop it open in the midway and pushes the rest afterwards?
@@anandisharma3828 I actually have a high pain tolerance so it doesn't hurt me that much. It definitely does hurt a little when you insert and push on the point to open it but for me it is definitely worth the pain because i don't even notice it for the rest of the day and unlike a tampon it does not hurt at all to take it out. Hope I have helped ;D
Thanks. I am trying it , but it isn't popping open inside. I'll try this.
@@anandisharma3828 try covering the sides in lube
Have you?
Squeezing the cup from the bottom is a game changer for me! I'm so excited. I was so frustrated and ready to give up when I searched RUclips and came across your video and your tips work! Thank you so much! It was truly a Godsend.
+Latasha X Woooo hoo!! Yay!! :) I'm so glad it worked well for you!
Mam.... I m also squizzing but It does not work for me... I am really worried about this....
So true! Mind blown. lol
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was going to give up. I tried the first day, it worked, 2nd, no and that was after over 15 tries. I'm going to try this method. Hope it works. Fingers crossed.
Yes, same here! ♡
This is my third cycle using my menstrual cup and, even though I really love my cup, I did have issues with leaking here and there - especially overnight. I was looking for a few helpful videos and this one popped up. I started using this method right away (yesterday lol) and I've had no leaking yet. Not a drop. Not even overnight. I've had no issues so far today either and I'm pretty confident that I'll be good tonight as well. So glad I came across this video, especially considered how long ago it was posted. Thanks for your tips!
How do I know I passed my pelvic bone????
Elizabeth Viscontti you can feel it getting into your pelvic bone
@@eevee-chan9607 yeah? where is that?
I’m struggling 😂 I should’ve practiced when I wasn’t on my period
I really want to know if it's normal to "feel" the cup inside you the first few tries. Honest answers please. I tried to google and all the answers were like 'technically, you're not supposed to feel it if done right' but sometimes theory isn't always real life and i want to know the truth!
nashnasri this is my first day. I can not feel the cup inside of me once it's in. I bleed very heavily. After I had it on for 2 hours, I can actually feel the cup coming down. I went to the restroom. It was still up there but just a lot lower. I think the weight of the blood brought it down. Anyway, if you feel it, maybe it's not high enough and/or it's not opened all the way. Push it up in there. I already love it so much!! Good luck
amberacealyssa thank you so much for your reply!! i didn't give up on it and tried again for my next cycle and i realise that cutting the stem really helps to make it more comfortable :) now i don't feel it inside anymore unless the cup isn't fully opened/not properly suctioned. thank you
nashnasri oh great!! my period didn't bother me for the first time LOL. I didn't leak at all, and thank you for mentioning you cut the stem. I kinda felt it AFTER I wrote this comment to you. So now I'm gonna trim it and I hope next month will even be better...so THANK YOU :)
When it's in wrong not open all the way and the wrong size you WILL FEEL IT! Otherwise you shouldn't feel it too much at all is what I've read online. Me personally, I am at the early stages of struggling to get it to open up inside of me. Luckily I found this video. This is my second try.
Yes I feel mine all the time... trying to figure out what is wrong I can't live like this!
We men, who work on DIY (Do It Yourself) jobs, sometimes run into problems too, not that kind. When this happens, we remember the saying, "When all else fails, read the instructions."
My 3rd cycle trying the menstrual cup. I’ve watched several videos and continue to do so but your tips have made more sense than any others. I came across your video last night and today was the first time I did not have leakage. So I’d say it was a success! Thank you for explaining things well!!!!
THANK YOU 👏🏼 This is my second month using the menstrual cup and the first month I was continually leaking and I became so frustrated with the whole thing. I watched your video and prepared myself for this month, and so far, leak free thanks to your tips. You’ve saved my sanity and my underwear.
This is amazing! I am so glad to hear this! Thank you for sharing your experience :)
thank you sooo much for this video. i was truely experiencing the struggle.
It’s my first time using the cup and nope, it didn’t went through in. 😢 I removed it and will try again later. I think I have tiny vagina and walls it doesn’t get in. I’m a 27-year old girl and no children yet. Help. 😢
Finalllyyy did it! I bought the cup few days back after alooottt of research. And yesterday i got my period. I tried twice to insert the cup but couldn't. I think it was because my flow on day 1 is always light and also cause vaginal muscles are tight on day 1. This morning I tried and got it in one go!!! Woohoooo! I tried the punch down fold, followed her instructions and also from other 1000 videos I watched. It got in first go. The natural lubrication and reminding myself to relax every second did the trick. I checked to see if there was the seal like she said, i guess it was cause it didn't come out. Though for a minute the stem was poking me, turns out i didnt push it all the way😂 it still poking a bit, I'll have to trim the stem and see how that goes the next time I have to reinsert. I'll keep u guys updated, wish me luck on my first day of trying the cup out!🤞🏼
Update: it's been another cycle since and honestly, it was so much easier then before in the latest cycle. I am still practicing, sometimes it doesn't pop open but practice makes on perfect so yeah. Also, i got tired on my 4th day so i used a pad and it felt so weird to wear one, it was wet and uncomfortable, comparatively with a cup... The only con with cup us that sometimes it doesn't open and taking out is abit painful, other than that it really doesn't feel like u r on ur periods.
Bro I bought size 1 at first bc I’m 18 and broooo that thing would NOT go up there. I’ve never had any experience w this kinda thing (just tampons) and it hurt so I gave up. I bought a size 0 today bc I said why not and it took me 48 minutes until I found this video and BOOM. IT WENT IN.
I’ve just got the cup
And I’m having trouble getting it in also, watched the video so I’ll try your method tomorrow I’m hurting now from trying it. 😟
I thought I was the only one! I CANT GET IT IN! Did you manage to do it ?
can someone who is a virgin PLEASE tell me does it work as well, does it hurt and can you actually wear it? please
I have long nails there’s no way imma be able to relax 😂👌🏼
I was about to give up. My cup won't open once inside. Lemme try this. I'll be back
After several fails, watched this video and I tried again and it worked! Thank you so much! Love, from Nigeria!
This works!!! Shes done it!!! Thank you so damn much!!! I’m sharing this with everyone!!! Let’s make this change!!!!!
Yay thanks Sarah! I was purposely saving this video for my next cycle (which happens to be today) so I'm super excited to try your technique! I shall report back soon :) and also I struggle more with pulling it out. Would love to hear your tips on that!
+Jenn Rogers good point! I didn't even think about that! In a nutshell, what I do is stick the index and thumb up... lol and grab at the bottom of the cup, pull it down slightly closer to you while squeezing and then wiggle around to break the seal. If that doesnt work, stick a finger there against the side of the cup and push the cup flat to break the seal (i find this difficult) and then pull the cup out. If it's stuck and you can't grip it and you're just tired at this point for attempting so many times, squat to the ground and grab at it.
Jenn Rogers i pinch the bottom of the cup until it breaks the seal and it usually comes out very easily after. You have to get a bit of air in there i can sometimes feel it and then i know to pull it out.
Oddly enough the first time I ever tried out a menstrual cup, I got it in first time without any troubles whatsoever. It was the very end of my period and so I never put the cup back in bc I wasn’t bleeding much at all. Now I’m on my next cycle and I I’ve tried inserting it and I can’t for the life of me get it to open up haha I need a time machine to go back to my last cycle and see what I did to make it so easy
Thank you so much. I feel like I've been alone in not managing to 'pop' it open in there! I've had my cup for YEARS, and I just haven't managed and half given up... I will not give up yet.
Update: For the first time I used a cup during my whole cycle!
I been using the cup for 4 months and here is what I have learned.
the cup insertion must be past the pelvic bone and the trim is left out.
I used to squat and insert it but many times the cup opens before i got it passed the pelvic bone, so I have to push it in a lit bit. Then by pinching the base I can rotate it easily. This way I know the cup is in its right place.
From now on I just lay down and it enters very easily. It can go very high so I just pull down the trim till I feel it cant go down no more.
I hope this helps somebody
I am that somebody 🥺🥺my cup won't open when I squat or even stand. The hole is just too small for my finger to fit in when the cup is inside. So I can't actually tell Whether the cup is folded or not. I just got my cup and been trying for days, I almost gave up till I saw this video. Then your comment. I can't thank you enough. The cup literally slid in once I laid down. It wasn't painful and for the first time I am confident that the cup is open. Thank you so so much
@@kindyngode1952 omggg same here, do you mean just lay down on bed and insert it?
ok I have to say I bought a cup and after almost two days of leaking and watching soooo many videos I almost gave up. I came across your video and after watching it once got it and watching a second time mastered it. because of your video I mastered it so fast that I now love my cup and will never go back!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ACTUALLY PUTTING A COMPETENT VIDEO UP. haha by far easiest explanation I've come across.
i was stressed, especially bcz of my age and you made me feel comfortable:)
All I have to say is...thank you!! Im on my first cycle trying this on day 2, and it has just been difficult. With your instructions I feel like everything is going to be ok lol. I just used your instructions and reinserted the diva cup and so far so good. I also cut the stem and already it is so much more comfortable. Thank you again for this awesome video
I tried for one and a half hours and it didn't work out, I thought I couldn't do this... But when I saw your video, I understood that everyone cannot do it perfectly for the first time itself, so I decided to try until it fits...
Finally, I fixed it!
It's was uncomfortable for some time, after that I got used to it...
Thankyou so much for the video and the explanation...✨
Great resource, Google “Put a Cup In It.” They’re the best for getting reviews and they even have a quiz to help you find the cup that’s right for you.
Bruh, i just got my cup yesterday,and my period today. Yay, i am excited to try right??
BOY, WAS I WRONG????!!😭😭
Been in the restroom for about 2 and a half hour.. 2HOURS!!!!!!

I'm really trying to do this but it is really painful for me i can get it in and it opens but i cant push it the rest of the way in my peach it is still half way out very frustrating and i really want to be able to do this but ive been in the bathroom 30 minutes now and done trying for the night but i just did not forsee this being this difficult lol
06beka how’s it going now? i had this issue but i’m getting better!
@@catealyse3666 um i was able to insert without pain this time but could not get it to unfold I did not have enough room to maneuver it if you will but i will keep trying but maybe the cup i am using is too big for me??? But I will keep trying cause in the long run i feel thesr are best for my body and environment. How about you have you been successful?
@@06beka Honestly this is late but it deffo seems like your cervix is low which you may need to get a smaller/shorter cup for!
Thanks for the feedback I actually talked to my Dr. And she told me that my cervix was normal but my pelvic floor muscles were really strong and that a smaller cup would be better. I guess if you workout regularly you may need a smaller cup regardless of age.
I can't locate my cervix and I don't know where should I put my menstrual cup.. it's really confusing
I just got my first Menstrual cup and GURL WHEN I TELL YOU THIS VIDEO HELPEDDD bru for real tho this was my first day using it and I leaked a lot turns out the cup was unfolded on the inside I’m so glad I came across your video I’ve been leak free for 3 hours now SO DAMN HAPPY
She's saying stick your finger up to check while the cup IS ALREADY IN THERE! I can't even fit the cup in 😭
6 months...still struggling to pop open down there😭
It always pops open on me while inserting it. I cannot get the fold to hold. I tried so many times. What am I doing wrong???
Try doing the half diamond fold it’s easier to get pass the fold but you have to hold the cup tightly
I kept having that issue where it sinks down throughout the day until I can feel it. I had no idea you were supposed to flex then push it up!! Incredibly helpful video :D
In every tutorial... They'll say ... It wont hurt ..... But man it did hurt 🤕🤕
Sarah, I have to say THANK YOU because you made day 2 of using the diva cup for the first time MUCH less scary/confusing than the first day. I feel much more confident now and am still only in cycle 1.
I can't understand how to insert the cup. However small you make the fold, it still feels bigger than the opening. Any tips?
thank you so much! i’m a young teen who uses tampons during the day and pads at night but they’re terrible for the environment. i was never able to use my cup but this video was the most useful one yet! thank you this probably changed my life
I'm 4years late... But today is my first day of period cup. After watching 1000 videos of period cup, I'm still unable to insert it properly. I spent 1.5 hours in washroom and still I couldn't do it! After folding the cup, I start to push it but it is not going into totally and it hurts! Any suggestion here?..
I've been trying so hard to get mine in for the first time and am struggling majorly!!! I was super excited for the menstrual cup but I cant even get the dang thing inserted. I get it in about halfway at the most, and then I either can't push it farther or it pops open too early and whacks me :////
"While it's halfway out" omg my 103820th video and she's the first person to have said this!
So I watched this video as I tried out my menstrual cup for the first time (sorry if that's too much 🙈) and I don't wanna speak too soon but I think I got it on the first try!!!
+bhskhs2010 Woo hoo!!! yay I hope you got it too! :)
+sarahhtranTV I did! Thanks to you!!
Ok after I relax some I’ll try this, thank you. I’ll update after I try again.
Thanks to you and your video, I àlso mastered my menstrual cup (within one cycle!)!!
This video was so helpful that I got the first insert for this period right and I got the removal right thanks to this lady. No one else has been able to explain the process so well
I am 18 years old and I am married but not birth.. Kindly please help me to choose a perfect menstrual cup.. And I think so my cervix is high..
Me doing kegels in the bathroom. My husband loving the after results 😂
tried both methods, it won't open T^T or is it just me that my wall is bumpy and it kept squeezing the cups. can anyone help me? I bought S size and it's the smallest I could find
I started wearing my menstrual cup yesterday and I've had absolutely no leaks! Thank you so much!
fucking
Whisper
I got a ad from a pad
The brand is whisper
Fuck
Thank you so much for this video. Your tip on wetting the cup before insertion REALLY helped. I'm still having issues with getting it far enough up and fully opened but I can go about 6 hours before it starts to leak. Since this is only my second cycle, I won't get too frustrated.
Hey, I am 18 and I'm trying to use cup but when I tried to Insert it it just can't insert and be so painful plz help me what to do now??
You changed my life. Honestly you have no idea how I watched this video like a year and a half ago and you were that friend I needed. I am now passing this video along to a friend that really needs help. Thank you
You can turn to God Before it’s to late (God is the one and only living real God and everlasting God) get to know him and turn to him before it’s to late!
My second try w a cup in 10 yrs. Didn’t really try last time. Thank goodness I can RUclips search everything now and thanks for taking the time to make this video. Ciao
I’ve gotten it only once but once it opened it felt like it was sucking in my vagina and it hurt so bad, I’ve been extremely scared to try since, any tips?
Used your method and it got I on my second try. Damn Sarah you the real mvp
YAY!!!! Maybe you're the real MVP for getting it right the second try!!! :)
So is it suppose to kind of be lost in there until you push it out like a baby? Or does part of the cup stick out a bit? It's scary when you think it's going to be stuck there because --- tmi coming up: --- you have to dig your fingers in there to get the cup out
how deep should it go up? I'm scared to put it too high up
me too
I just push it up enough so that it won't come down towards the opening, so i stop inserting approx when I reach half of my finger?
+sarahhtranTV and to get it out do you just bear down and push?
laughnowcrylater Here's my video I made on how to remove :) ruclips.net/video/9ER80bNu_eM/видео.html
+sarahhtranTV what was something that you had to teach your self about it. any tips for me to avoid?
Ok I'm gonna reattempt. Ngl, I was about to send this thing back lol
I can't seem to get the dam thing to work.
I could get it in until the ending, the vary end of the triangle part I can't seem to get in. It just really hurts even when I'm trying to relax the muscles.
Candy4Bullets it does for me too😕 which sucks cuz I was hoping it'd work
Candy4Bullets don't give up. It's my first day and I love it!!
Candy4Bullets. I was having this problem to until I used lube. Try it it works wonders and fits the whole thing inside without the stem sticking out n pain free. U shud also feel around the parameters of ur vajay first before inserting
Same and then it opens up before as well :(
maybe the one you have is too big or too long, also I had to trim the stem on mine because it didn't go higer and a part of it was stiking out, wich kinda hurt because i didn't know you could trim it... don't recomend that, it actually hurt and every time i moved, becase the tip of yhe stem (wich was in the shape of a heart for some reason? - i mean that's just stupid) was out it moved the cup inside and it was unconfortable and sometimes if i moved more it actually hurt a bit :P so make sure you have the right size and that you trim the stem if you have to
Can someone pls help, I am not even able to insert even a bit of the cup as if the vaginal opening is too small for this n it definitely hurt when I tried to insert the cup.
Wow. THANK YOU! I am so thankful that you posted this video. By learning from your trial and error process I have been very successful on my first cycle! Looking forward to being free of tampons from here on out 💕
