Good!
Here my first granite to what I hope will become a more interesting and useful blog.
I will tell you about the menstrual cup, which may find it, of course, more interesting to women that I read.
What is the menstrual cup?
menstrual cup is not exactly a new invention, even if you are having a boom for some years. It is an invention back in the 30's of XX century. Then were made of latex and even in some areas were well known and sold many mismanagement caused the manufacturers to make them stop and become hard to find, falling into oblivion.
Link: menstrual Cup history (in English )
some women a few years ago discovered the benefits hidden in this feminine hygiene items and decided to revive the market menstrual cups. To these were followed by many other companies.
As I said the menstrual cup is an article used feminine hygiene during menstruation (which obviously XD). This is a method "barrier" placed inside the vagina includes bleeding in its emptiness. Its manufacturing today can be latex (rare) or silicone all, since this does not cause allergies such as latex. The silicone used is soft, not too hard or too soft, no smell and does not produce any kind of rejection or reaction in the body.
are many brands of menstrual cups as their sizes, colors, hardness ... and even the shapes change a little, but maintaining the appearance of glass.
*
Among some brands are: Mooncup, LadyCup, DivaCup, Lunette, Melun, Miacup ...
Its price ranges between 15 and 30 €, but it may seem expensive is money that is recovered very quickly because the glass has an average life 5 years usually. Cast accounts with 5 years of pads / tampons ...
How do I use?
Well, this is something that many can cause rejection for several reasons, but it is not even half of what it seems, nor is messy or complicated. First
have shot well saved in the bag (most come with a bag of cotton) and Deus is recommended before sterilized by boiling, 2-3 little minutes in a pan enough.
1 - How to wear it.
Well, do not be alarmed if the inside seems bigger because we are quite elastic and the cup is very very soft. Will adapt our movements smoothly, in fact, if all goes as it should be not noticeable at all.
bending is inserted, and for this there are several methods. I use C but how many people do not fit, but I say that here are several methods and there is always one that fits each.
As a picture is worth a thousand words ...
bending Forms:
already doubled just have to insert it, and when he is introduced half-drop or do you open the glass if not, by itself has. Nor ye break a lot of the horns you will not be as plump as when you're away. There are girls who notice the "flop" and others not, but it is important is to open just enough to make empty, as it is how it works, when the holes around the cup are stuck to the walls. When you open a couple is given back "thread" XD and ready. Each girl is different, some will cut corners because they upset and excel and others do not. Keep in mind that the glasses do not stay where they tampons, which is beyond the seventh heaven at least, but remain below:
........ Place cup .... ............................................ . ............. Buffer Location 
If costs can be lubricated or wet with water to make it easier.
And yes, the 1 st time may cost, difficult, strange ... but maybe not with tampons? In fact the glasses are inserted thousand times better in my experience.
2 - Extraction:
We have used the cup and we will empty it. Go to the bathroom, find the position that best suits us and supposedly easier and pull the tail, pinch the bottom of the cup to remove the vacuum, take out, dump the contents into the toilet, clean (if a toilet-bidet close, but water bottle but lenes, that is our body, we will not die for ponérnoslo "dirty" to get home or where we can clean it with little water and / or soap), and reinsert or sterilize and store.
Well, at first not so easy. What is essential is above all not to be nervous. Take your time, perhaps on 1 day I fight with the cup, 2 No you play ... but the 3 rd will be a breeze.
I leave a video simulated how to and how to remove a glass :
Pros and Cons :
Pros:
- is economic , I takes an average of 5 years, one cup, compared with kilos of pads and tampons.
- is ecological not participate creating mountains of waste products such as feminine pads and tampons are the sole purpose landfills.
- is toilet, before it may seem we are getting in touch with our bodies a non-allergenic material that does not produce any toxic reaction. Silicone is inert and does not accumulate germs on it. While the pads are made of plastics and chemicals that come in contact with our skin and sensitive areas for hours, keeping moisture, brighteners, absorbing ....
- Easy to clean.
- not dry, when silicone is maintaining the pH of "our homes" with bacteria and flora necessary, when the pads dry out a lot (and this also means that costs extra .)
- It helps to know, because it is not very common, unfortunately, we know how for these dollars and there are many women who discover they have such weak pelvic floor and had no idea.
- We save room in your suitcase: P
- As it dries you can use anytime, you have the rule or not, that's also perfect for those who menstruate little or irregular.
- can swim, ski, horseback riding ... all those things they say in advertisements for tampons XD
- not tell , truth, and that makes you feel more free, not a glob of notes warms plastic stuck to ass or sucks the life you like the vile tampons haha. You feel more camaraderie.
- can use 12 hours and tankards slow to fill, so it is normal that we can change at home without any problem completely forgetting about it when we left.
"Problems":
- There are girls who may have difficulty inserting the cup, but today there are teen virgin drinks until, well, tiny but equally useful. We can all use.
- may seem like a dirty trick, but hey, it's only blood (with some other things haha, but roughly blood), and this helps us know how we are. For example we can surprise us to see that the bleeding in the cup is that less of the stain appears as though (to be expanded).
- Having to clean water is a spot you can and the fingers do not have to get dirty and as I said above you can change before you leave home and endure hours and hours and hours. Bottle but water in the bag and wipes, I think nobody has died so XD
- No sale: this should be a general problem rookie, few are spared this haha. Sometimes he goes to the middle of nowhere, my experience for example is in the mornings on waking, that it has been uploaded into the trachea almost XD. Well, a long-time sitting and feet that will descend. And when you try anything to get 1, nerve, 2 push like a champion lol. And surely down just enough to hold the tail and pull. You will be catching the callus XD
- are not known, well, this is not a problem because the Internet is here haha, but hey, someone spent millions on ads does not mean what band is better but has more money to spend on ads.
- I ONLY against've found is that you can not go diving for that vacuum ... but only that o_O
And most cases I can think of Cons Seriously, I have changed my life and would like all women who might try it, because it is a release, feel so clean and really safe, not towels and tampons. Well, this is a personal comment haha.
Anyway, I do not know if I leave something, but if you have any further questions, other than to ask me freely, I leave some very interesting links . The first two are a page in English with lots of information and images about menstrual cups, brands, reviews ...
