I tried a disc for the first time in my life (one of the Flex disposable discs) and had trouble getting it tucked behind my pubic bone. I’ve used a cup for one cycle and I didn’t have any issues with insertion, but the feeling of it bothered me, so I thought that a disc might be less invasive. I tried one of the disposable discs that I was given along with my cup. Insertion was easy and I could feel my pubic bone, but the disc felt like it wasn’t staying there/popping open. I could push the disc behind my pubic bone, but it would immediately slip back out of position and just sort of hang vertically inside of me. Obviously this resulted in a LOT of leakage. Is this an anatomy issue? A sizing issue? Any help is appreciated because I really want to make discs work!

Just finished my first ever cycle with a menstrual cup! The learning curve wasn’t as bad as I expected, and I figured out insertion/removal pretty quickly. Unfortunately, I could definitely feel the cup, especially after using the bathroom. I often had to use a finger to move it further up even after just peeing. I also had some leaking on my heavier days. I’m interested in a disc since they sit higher and I think will be more comfortable with my anatomy, but I’m unsure of how to find a good fit for me. I’m currently looking at the reusable Flex disc (the brand of my cup) and Saalt. Any recommendations or advice is appreciated!
