Boys, this isn't the Livejournal Post you are looking for

Saw this girlie free tip at [livejournal.com profile] poor_skills
Free Menstrual cup!

http://www.celle.com/survey/

Go here to receive a free Menstrual cup! All you need to do is answer 3 questions and give them your address. I'm so excited. This isn't a scam, several of my friends have gotten one already.

What is a menstrual cup, you ask? Well it is a small cup that collects your blood during your period, Its reusable! Just wash in hot water when its full and reinsert. It lasts for up to 10 years, Just think never having to buy another tampon or pad again. And you can wear it for up to 24 hours!!!

So go get one. It's free.

I always worry this will give me a urinary tract infection like the diaphragm did, pressing against my urinary tract. Do you think this is shaped differently?

It's so appealing. I'm tired of wearing diapers every goddamned month.

Do you know if the cup they're offering is any different from the Diva Cup? (www.divacup.com) I was planning to order a Diva Cup and I'm skeptical of anything offered free... but this would be a great way to save some money.

I've been wanting to try one of the Diva cups but didn't want to pay the cash in case I didn't like them. Getting a free one would be nice.

no offense

but it wasn't the one I was looking for either, lol.

I think that is sooo very gross. Right up their with cloth diapers. I'm all in favor of making these things biodegradable and earth friendly and yet also disposable. it's the happy medium I seek.

yuck yuck yuck!

I have a Lunette brand cup which I'm VERY happy with. I gave it a few trial runs when I wasn't bleeding and had some initial difficulty, but once I got used to it it was brilliant! Set and forget, so to speak. ;) SO much better than forever worrying if the damn pad or tampon was leaking.

I thought the Menstral Cup was a NASCAR event.

I have had a Diva Cup for 3 years and I dread using it every month because it is messy and uncomfortable to insert/remove. Yes, I can forget about it for hours but I find it randomly leaks far worse than I ever had with tampons. The only reason I keep using it is for the reduction in waste.

My only concern here is that the site does not get your age and maternal status, which is important in sizing/ordering your cup. I went ahead and did it anyway- I already have a Diva that I really like, and am getting a MoonCup for comparison purposes. I'll be interested to see what they send me and if it is indeed sized correctly.
