  • Can I also suggest that anyone who has the 'smart' idea of rinsing their pads before shoving them in the wash might want to beware of splashing... :o:o:o

    LOL!

    I actually rinse mine whilst i'm in the shower then put them in the wash. Then i clean the shower as normal.
    No nasty splashing for me :D

    But i DO know what you mean ;)

    It's probably been mentioned somewhere on here (Oh I'm too lazy to check :o ) but Boots had some Mooncups on the shelves last week for £19.99.


    I love mine now..... I'm a total convert icon14.gif

    Hi girlies

    I think I mentioned earlier somewhere that I was so impressed with the Mooncup that I signed up for affiliation - I would get 20% of any sales using my link (thought it would be good for some PIN money) I've been allowed to put my link to Mooncup on the Referrers Board and I wondered if it would be OK to post it on this discussion thread?

    Does anyone have any objection?

    Oh....and I've told the Board Guide that IF I do make anything reasonable I'll donate to MSE charities.

  • i find that along with the cost factor i like the fact that i am always prepared for anything ;) and another good side effect is that i seem to have less cramping and pain using these :D[/QUOTE]

    Yes, I'm taking loads fewer painkillers and the mooncup is so much more userfriendly than the nasty old tampons. I'm a convert since the last thread and I would never go back.

  • For example, during sexual intercourse, this new tampon will not get in the way at all, of neither partner. Besides, their absolute safety will give every woman the freedom to go swimming, visit the sauna, and so on. Whichever physical activity she engages in, she will never feel the Gynotex tampon she is wearing.
    Thanks for the link Katyag, but i have more questions than answers now, lol.
    :eek:

    I need more info about these 'soft tampons', I'm not sure why or how, what, where or when!!! :question:
