The first cup I got was the Lunette Selana (L). It works really well for me. I had no problems inserting or removing it right from the start. (I do wet it a bit before inserting it) but it opens up easily and the only problem I've had is that I dropped it into the toilet once when emptying it and boiled it to bits once when I sterilized it.. (upss.. just got distracted and completely forgot about that water on the stove.. )
So then I reordered a Lunette but also got a MeLuna. I have a large orange one with the little ball at the bottom. I find it easy to use and I quite like that little ball to remove it. It gives me something to grab.. (But you shouldn't be to squeamish and you have to press the bottom of the cup together to stop the suction before removing it but that you have to do with any cup). Also, I cannot feel it.. In fact it makes me almost forget that I have my periods which sometimes feels a bit strange ;-) The only slightly negative thing about the MeLuna is that I find it does not unfold as easily as the Lunette. So probably for anyone who has problems with an other cup the Lunette might be the better choice..
Any yes.. it is addictiveIn fact I have just ordered a LadyCup for myself (a Czech product which also comes in pretty colours and with even prettier little bags) and a small MeLuna for my teenage daughter who said she would try it.. I am curious how she will go with it.. but unfortunately I know she will not be too keen on discussing this with her mum
I haven’t tried any small cups yet. As I figured that my pelvic floor might not be that great and also I do get rather heavy periods.. But I might one day make myself a little present and just get a small one to try.. Because even with a fairly heavy flow I can go for quite a while without changing, whereas with tampons I had to use the biggest ones with pads and change them every hour or so..
