Intimina Lily Cup One - The Collapsible Menstrual Cup for Beginners, Period Cup for Teens

I’m quite lucky, this is only the second cup that i’ve bought. I know people that have have to get 5 or 6 different cups because they just haven’t found the right one.The first one I got was for women that have given birth, considering I’ve had three children I decided it would prob be a good one for me. I was so wrong, it was just too big and far too firm. It pushed on my bladder so much that I constantly felt like I needed to pee, but then couldn’t. I could feel it all the time so I chucked it and gave up on cups completely.I realised months later that I actually just needed a smaller softer cup, so did some research and found this one. It said it was aimed at beginners and teens, I knew it was smaller and softer and I loved the fact that it scrunched up and had a little case that I can just put in my pocket or bag.This cup is amazing! Can’t feel it at all and very easy to put in. Lasts all day so no need to try and rinse out in a public bathroom.I highly recommend this as a first cup, don’t do what most people do and end up getting loads of different ones. Get this, weather your young old, had kids or not. I think this will work for most people!100% converted to cups! No more tampons for me 😂Also one of the cheapest cups I’ve seen, for the price of 5 boxes of tampons but will last you 10 years.The thing with cups is that everyone’s vajayjay is different, therefore this one won’t be suited to everyone. However it’s a very good one to start with.If you are having trouble putting it in then YouTube is your friend! There are a number of different folds you can try, so if the first one doesn’t work try another one.Please don’t be put off by some of the bad reviews, they either weren’t using it right or it wasn’t the right cup for them. I had no problem with it, because I did my research it took me less than a minute to get it in and I had zero leaks even the first time I used itDO IT!If this one isn’t right for you then please try a different one, because I know it will change your life, I promise

This was my first ever cup. It took a little getting used to but when flo arrived I put it to work and it felt comfortable and secure (even if the first time I tried to insert it I had a mini panic attack because I was afraid it would be uncomfortable like a tampon silly me) I did have one little leak but that was my fault for rushing and not checking it was fully sealed (luckily I was wearing a panty liner) in that situation all I had to do was give it a little sweep around with my finger and it sealed into place properly. I haven't had any leaks since but have found that it does need to sit a little higher for me (turns out I have a high cervix) so getting it out proved to be a little challenge (safe to say I'm quite acquainted with my body now) for this reason I decided to purchase the original lily cup to see if that would be more beneficial for me as it's longer. I found it easiest to remove it by sitting on the toilet and I've never spilt it or dropped it. It can still be a challenge putting it in, I still haven't quite found the right position to put it in standing or squating so I've had to resort to lying to get it right (luckily I've been at home so not an issue especially as I'm only needing to empty it morning and night). I love that I can leave it in for 12 hours. When I removed it even on my heaviest day (usually end of day one and day two) it was only about half full a definite improvement on the copious pads I would go through. It feels secure and for someone who hasn't been able to use tampons due to how much they cause me pain, dry me out, that annoying little string and the smell (same issue for pads minus the pain but more mess) this has been a life saver. I also love how it is so compact and it doesn't collapse easily as it's fairly rigid. I have to really press to get it to collapse so I'm not sure what's happening to some people :S. I don't notice it when it's in unless I really think about it. I have occasionally gotten what feels like air bubbles but they come out quickly with a few kegels or you can press the side to burp it and they go away pretty quick) I think this cup is great for throwing in a bag if you are going out and know flo is due because of the little case. Definitely recommend for a beginner cup (I can see why it's aimed at teens) but for me this is going to most likely be a back up cup as it's just a touch too short for my body. Still 5 stars.

This product has changed my life!!I’ve always been a tampons girl, I hated the mess with pads and the feeling of wearing it.Used tampons for years until I heard about period cups, I was a bit scared of the idea to begin with until I heard more about them.Seen this and decided to try it after doing some research.I fell in love with this product, it was beginner friendly, had instructions with the pack AND a case for on the go!I’ve tried both techniques to put it in and both work well for me, always run ur finger round the rim of the cup though and make sure it’s fully around ur cervix. Once in I can’t feel it at all and I can go about my day and do anything I normally would, I’ve only ever had leakage when it’s not been inserted correctly.For removal I’d recommend using ur finger to push on the rim of the cup until you break the seal then sort of scooping it out or use 2 fingers to pinch it and remove. Once you get the hang of removing it becomes pretty mess free (depending on how full the cup is).Once removed I usually rinse in the sink until clean and put it back in.I love that it comes with the case too, as someone who always has irregular periods so never knows when it will be, having the cup in its case I can just throw it in my bag or pocket and take it everywhere with me.I loved this so much that I seen Intimina also do the period cup “disk” so decided currently trying that (so far so good)100% recommend trying this!!
