I Tried The Flex Cup: A More Comfortable Period Is Closer Than You Think

Try Flex

Nothing is more daunting than perusing the ever-changing menstrual product aisle. As any older-sibling figure that menstruates will tell you: what works for one person may not work for you! With so many variables and so much potential for pain and discomfort, it's no wonder so many people dread their time of the month -- but Flex is rewriting that narrative. After trying the Flex Menstrual Cup, I'm never going back.

Comfort And Security

While menstrual cups can sometimes cause discomfort, Flex's innovative design is transforming this narrative -- it was my most comfortable period yet. With 100% medical grade silicone, the cup was softer, more flexible, and more comfortable than other cups I've used in the past. This allows the cup to move with your body both in contractions and physical activity. The best part? Zero leakage!

All-Day Wear

To make matters better, Flex menstrual cups are created to be worn longer than pads, or even tampons. Flex cups have been tested and deemed safe to wear for up to 12 hours (compared to the 8 hour maximum wear of a tampon). You're already winning with not having to carry around tampon or pad replacements, but only having to remove your cup twice in a 24 hour period? You can't beat that.

Perfect Fit Guarantee

Purchasing a menstrual cup can be daunting when it comes to fit and comfort. Flex is paving the way with its Perfect Fit Guarantee: you can purchase the size that you feel will work for you (either slim or full) and easily exchange for another size. What's more, you can reach out to a "Flexpert," who will work with you to find the perfect fit.

Tampon-Like Pull Tab

Innovation at its finest. If you're familiar with menstrual cups at all, you probably know that they often require some maneuvering to remove. The base of Flex's menstrual cup is a "tab" (similar to a tampon) as opposed to a typical "stem" -- making removal a breeze.

Sustainability

If you're even the slightest bit environmentally aware, you've probably heard people sing the praises of menstrual cups. Unlike pads or tampons, cups are reusable, and the Flex cup is no exception! The cup is designed to last for years (yes, years) which saves you the time + money associated with repurchasing period products each month, as well as saving the earth from unnecessary period-product-pollution. A win for you, a win for the earth!
