So I just got my divacup in the mail but I am wondering how you know when it pops open. Do you hear it or feel it?
Thanks!

Both, for me at least. One thing to be aware of is the placement of your cervix. Hitting your cervix/getting it caught on one side of it will prevent it from opening, keep it from working properly, and generally just plain sting. There's a few forums devoted to the DivaCup; I know there's one on livejournal.


If it's open, you should be able to turn it (inside of you) without any trouble. It's actually recommended on the instructions. =)
Usually you can tell just by feeling it with a finger. (Make sure you insert it properly, it sits in the opening of your vagina, not far up like a tampon)




when you turn it to create the seal, it should pop open. you'll feel it with your fingers- the cup with go from flat to cup shaped.
be the change you wish to see in the world....

thanks. I didn't know there was a livejournal for the divacup. I just got it after reading about it here, but I will check out the livejournal!


the Livejournal community "vaginapagina" usually has information on it. Also, sometimes LJ community "feminist" will have a discussion or two (though it's mostly for other issues.)
