I've been using this product now for about ten yrs. and I don't know what I ever did without it! I highly recommend it as there's no left over ummm fibres from tampons and once you figure it out (remember you had to figure out tampons when you first tried them) you'll never ever ever want to go back to tampons. Just read their instructions. Can wear them at least twice as long and as long as 12 hours. They don't have latex like the Diva cup so those of us with latex allergies can use it and be happy. I've found that tampons were causing a lot of yeast infections, they were leaking and were just plain uncomfortable and after my periods there was dryness. I'll never go back. Ever. They say not to reuse but I have I wash well when I change the cup (soap and water and if you want rubbing alcohol) and they last me my entire period. Just make sure you're by a sink. They are very cost effective, about $4.99 for 6, which lasts me 6 mos. and if the zombie apocalypse should hit...LOL you have something you can sterilize and re-use. Though it isn't recommended I do. As you can reuse the diva cup, so can you reuse this product. I use a fresh one every period, but seriously there's no reason you can't clean thoroughly for you entire period and be just fine. I know others who have done this and had no ill effects. The only problem is you might find at the end of your period or the first day it's hard to get in position so use vaseline or something to smooth the way. Also, you may forget it, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I love this product. A whole lot. FYI, the name has now changed to Softcup and is in a pink box. I buy at Shoppers Drug Mart as that's the only place I've seen them. Though I did recently see a package of 14 or so at Safeway for I believe $14. Something like that. Awesome product! -
This is an awesome pad! I am older, not old but older and as I've gotten older my periods have gotten just awful, very heavy. I have to use internal and external. I always use Always infinity overnights because it covers everything. It absorbs a lot... +
This is an awesome pad! I am older, not old but older and as I've gotten older my periods have gotten just awful, very heavy. I have to use internal and external. I always use Always infinity overnights because it covers everything. It absorbs a lot and makes me feel very very safe. I used to hate pads because you could feel them. Always Infinity doesn't even feel like it's there. In fact, I've gone back to the bathroom to make sure I replaced it. LOL. Great product. Highly recommend. Someone said she recommended for postpartum, yup, it'd work alright! But pre menopausal women should definitely use this, trust me girls, it works really really well! -
