It was my first menstrual cup, and I still use it. It's in great shape. Honestly I really need to buy myself a second as a backup, but I've never needed it. It does have a learning curve, but I feel like I made the right choice with Sckoon- I wish I saw them recommended more frequently. I did a lot of research before buying, and after years of use I really feel like the Sckoon cups are the perfect shape- there's no lip or seams to rub you the wrong way, it's smooth and soft, easy to insert and with a little practice fairly easy to remove, and easy to clean. I will caution that I had some issues at first use- I did not insert far enough and it opened against my pubic bone at the vaginal entrance, which was painful and a bit scary for a first attempt. I put it away for several months before trying again, but I think it's worth it to keep trying. I eventually got the hang of it and it's completely painless now, and I've learned how to ensure proper suction so that there's no leaks. (The latter is a bit difficult to describe and will just come with practice and trial and error. It did take a while and I wasn't sure if the cup was really right for me during that time because of frequent leaks. For me the trick was to kind of twist it and press upward after insertion, and that ensures a good seal. I haven't had any issues with leaks for years now.) Removal also requires some practice, and bearing down with your abdominal muscles helps immensely, pushing it closer to the entrance so that it can be grasped more firmly to break the suction seal and remove. Be sure to pop that suction or you'll be in for a difficult time! The cup feels cleaner than any other product while wearing it, but removal is messy. I've never had a problem with my small cup needing to be emptied more than 2 or 3 times a day, so I just make sure to empty it in a private bathroom. If you're not sure if the volume will be enough for you, I recommend wearing pads to catch any leaks until you're more confident with its limits. Overall highly recommend menstrual cups. They're worth the effort, and the Sckoon cup especially is excellent. Review: My new favorite! - I bought my first menstrual cup a couple of years ago and I used it on and off. Recently, I decided to completely get rid of disposables so I figured I needed another cup so I could alternate the two more readily. My first cup from Diva is awesome. I got the size #1 because at the time, I was not 35 and had not had a child. I think it fits fine although sometimes I found myself wishing the rim was a little softer and that the cup part wasn't quite so long. That said, I never had any leaks and it would last me all day even on heavy flow days. After looking at reviews, I found the SckoonCup and it sounded like it would be softer than the Diva. I found very few pictures of the two styles compared in size but from what I could gather, the Sckoon #1 was going to be smaller than the Diva #1. Sure enough, it is. This is good and bad. First, I think it's a little more comfortable/easier to get in. But, on the bad side, it definitely doesn't hold as much so on heavy days, I either have to empty it a couple of times or use my other cup. Although I like the holes because they clean out easier, I wonder if they also allow the cup to overflow a little more easily. Comfort-wise, this cup is great. It's quite a bit "softer" than the Diva because of its shape but that also has a drawback: it is a little harder to get it to open. Not a problem for me, but it's something to be aware of and is definitely something I've noticed. I think the Sckoon would be a good starter cup and a great cup for anyone who has a low cervix (ask your doctor). It comes in a bunch of colors which is fun, too! My next purchase will be another SckoonCup but I'm going to try a size 2 even though I haven't had children because I'm 35 and I'd like to try a bigger cup for heavy flow days. It's my "go-to" cup right now although I like both cups very much. I'm going to try to attach a couple of photos so you can compare the two brands, size 1. Sorry, but the red color is hard to photograph so there might not be a lot of detail in that one.
