LOL, randomest thread ever. Yay for saving the planet!

The only problem I've heard of with the Divacup is that its a lot harder to get in than a tampon. They're quite a bit larger and kind of oddly shaped.

Yeah! That's what I heard too.. Tampons are already weird/difficult enough to use in my opinion XD

At first, its a little tricky to find out how to get it in, but there are many different folds people use, just google it or look on the divacup facebook fan page.

As soon as you know how to work it, it's super easy - out and in like that!

Aaaand yet another reason! Look at all the waste from this...

ohh good idea!
would you say they're good for overnight too?

Just all week. You put it in the day you start and just empty every 12h (i do 7-7), and you're good!

No special worries about overnight or sports

Hey I'm gonna buy one this month! lol just in time for this month's period. I wanted to know about washing it.. what do you use personally... do you use their product the "diva wash" or is regular soap/water okay?

I have a sink right next to my toilet, so i just pump some soap into it and rinse it and use a toothpick to get the little holes on the top. Works great!

Then you just boil it at the end of the week.
