Do you know the difference between a period cup and a period disc?

Cheat sheet!

LEAK PROTECTION
Flex Cup: 12-hour leak protection
Flex Disc: 12-hour leak protection

SUCTION
Flex Cup: Suction-free design
Flex Disc Uses suction to stay secure

SPECIAL FEATURES
Flex Cup: Pull-tab for easy removal
Flex Disc: Can empty when you pee

REUSABLE
Flex Cup: Reusable (lasts for years)
Flex Disc: Reusable & one-time use options

IUD
Flex Cup: Although Flex Cup’s pull-tab breaks the seal for you, we still recommend consulting with your doctor prior to using any internally worn device with an IUD as they’ll be able to provide a recommendation based on how your IUD is positioned with your anatomy
Flex Disc: Tons of Flex Disc users have IUDs. We recommend chatting with your doc first before trying internally worn products as they’ll have a better idea of how your IUD is positioned with your unique anatomy in order to give a recommendation

SEXUAL INTERCOURSE
Flex Cup: No penetrative sex while the period cup is worn
Flex Disc: Mess-free period sex

Mommas, we want to hear from you! When did your period come back? What was it like?

Periods after pregnancy are a whole other ballgame! 😅

It might be heavier, crampier, and messier. Even more irregular at first.

Your period could return 6 weeks or 6+ months postpartum. Breastfeeding? Your body might hold off even longer thanks to prolactin. #momlife #postpartumjourney #pregnancy #periods #womenshealthmatters #postpartum #postpartumrecovery

If you get easily grossed out, don’t worry it’s not real 💩 it’s better than bouillon

Now for the important stuff.

We all know tampon strings are pretty annoying… Flex Disc is not only convenient, you’ll probably find it quite a bit more comfortable! Some people have even experienced less cramps since switching to our period discs. PLUS, you can wear it for 12 hours without worrying about leaking.

I mean, name a better period product! #periodproblems #periods #womenshealthtips #womenshealthmatters #menstrualdisc #perioddisc #heavyperiods
