My Hello disc flipped upside down?!
I just want to know if this has happened to anyone else 😅 Am I delusional and I put the bloody thing in wrong or has it actually just back flipped inside me vag? I was quite tired when I put it in but I could definitely feel the tab once it was in so I don't think it's just in my head... I will be wearing my period pants for the rest of the day for fear of this happening again while I'm at work :( This is perhaps another sign that I need to try another disc, at least for days 1 and 2 and I need some help pleeeaase!
Extra info and some questions as a first-time disc person:
I wear it with 1 loop (2nd loop cut off). My cervix is low, when I wore it with 2 loops and even flipped it was hanging out me vag and very uncomfortable.
It likes to spinaroony a bit which can make it hard to get at sometimes but isn't a massive problem as I can normally find the loop with a good rummage. Does anyone else experience this with hello disc? Is there a disc that doesn't do this or is better equipped with features that make it easier to remove?
I also notice that on day 1-2 of my cycle the ol vag is preeetty sensitive and perhaps hello disc is not the right size/shape for when I feel like this? In general, I don't think the hello disc can be fully round in my fornix, I think it is more like a slightly squished circle so maybe that is contributing to the discomfort on day 1?
Any recs for discs that might work better for when everything is more sensitive? My flow is maybe light-ish/medium, sometimes heavy... whatever that means. Also have pmos so nothing is ever the same during my cycles.
This is my first disc and my 4th cycle while using it, I do really like it but I don't want to get caught out again. I like period pants but want to eliminate the gush feeling, which is why I like using a disc. I've never used cups (the suction and length of the dangly bit scare me) and tampons give me cramps and don't seem to work with my anatomy.
I have looked on period nirvana but find all the charts quite overwhelming so thanks in advance for any wisdom and potential solidarity!
