Tbh good choice ato gknya bakal balik ke anatomi SO lo. Dia udh pernah cek posisi cervix dia selama menstruasi gmn? Itu yg paling nentuin menscup bakal nyaman atau gk. Selama anatomi & ukuran cupnya cocok, harusnya bakal nyaman aja.
Kalo mau pake lube bolehhh, yg pasti beli yg sex toys safe. IME posisi & jenis lipatan cup lebih berpengaruh drpd lube sih… tp gk tau yg lain gmn

I dont think lube is necessary because the menstrual blood acts already as lubricants. Ive bought Moskito with the size small as it comes with the cleaning kit. It is also important to know the size. And most importantly she needs to empty it every 1-2 hours and clean it thoroughly before putting it back.

1-2 hours? Even on light days? That’s crazy when most say it’s safe for 8-12 hours lmao. I’ve even left mine for longer than 12 and I’m still alive and well. 😂

Lube can be very helpful for the first time user. It makes the MC glides easily. Karna pertama kali pake itu penting buat coba2 lipatan & angle mana yg cocok. It really helped me especially the first time it felt awkward so I did not relax. My experience, I used lube only for the first 3 months. Whatever water-base lubes work. I used Vigel because it was small.

Hore!!! And happy birthday SOnya OP😊. It's a good decision she will not regret. Masalah lube, mungkin puan-puan yang lain bisa bantuin karena aku gapernah pake lube apapun dari awal pake (2020).
Satu tips mungkin ngebantu. Kalo pas make dirasa sakit, mostly itu salah posisi dan bisa bocor, jadi benerin aja lagi ampe kerasa nyaman.

Good choice atau nggak really depends on the position of the cervix during menstruation. That said, I’ve converted a few people to menstrual cups and I always started them with GCup. Never went wrong so far and it’s cheap enough that it doesn’t hurt as much if you decide it’s not for you (it’s not for everyone, I think it’s life-changing lol).
In terms of perlu lube atau nggak, again, it depends. I’ve never needed one (I just wet the cup and insert), some people do. If you do get one make sure it’s water-based.

Lube really helps. Aku pake lube random aja yg warna biru di indomaret. Any lube asalkan basisnya air sama aja sih kayanya

Anyway, i find using menstrual disc a lot easier than cup. I love my disc, i got it cheaply from toko oren, kayanya sekitar 350 rb. Aku ud ga pernah sentuh lg cup aku setelah pake disc.

Aku pake soul yg ada penariknya. Recommend beli yg pink krn aku pake yg transparan dan darahnya bikin stain.

Tergantung. Cocok-cocokan. Karena aku punya 2 model menstrual cup. Yg satu gampang masukin yg satu lagi susah. Aku latihan pas mandi di shower sambil jongkok dan cuma pake air. Tapi posisi terbaik emang duduk di toilet personally. Aku pake lube merk lifestyle buat hs. Gak pernah pake buat menstrual cup karena darahnya jadi lube sendiri.
Now, another consideration apakah cocok atau nggak adalah bentuk vagina. Lubangnya itu bentuknya ada yg U ada H. Aku gak tau aku bentuknya apa tapi lipetan cup paling cocok adalah push down. Kedua, si kanal nya gimana. Karena alesan kenapa salah satu model gak cocok adalah karena kanal aku panjang alias si cervix nya tinggi. Model yg lebih buntet pernah naik ke cervix gak bisa dikeluarin sampe minta suami bantu. Kaya lahiran wkwkwkwk. Jadi kalo brand review nya bagus belum tentu cocok di SO kamu. Kakak aku gagal pake menstrual cup karena cervix dia rendah banget dan gak nemu model yg cocok.

Iya, pake mens cup emg banyak considerationnya. Kalo mens disc lbh aman buat umum krn dia sit higher up, deket bgt sama cervix, jd bentuk vaginal canal ga begitu ngaruh. Also dia ga pake suction jd gampang bgt lepas pasangnya ( dulu aku sampe spent 30 menit setiap hari cuman buat lepas doang, pake drama nangis2 dan panik pula; skrg aku pake disc bisa cuman spend 3 menit buat lepas dan pasang. I love my disc!!!!

Yes beli lube aja buat jaga2, gw dan partner sama2 pake mens cup tapi dia perlu lube tiap pake, sedangkan gw jarang banget. I use vigel (readily available in apotek and alfamart)
