Ladies!~Heard of gynotex??Opinions!!

Bendybops19

Hi,

I have read all about the mooncup and although still a bit dubious, thought it to be a very good invention!! :T

Thought i'd look it up but then came across this..

http://www.gynotex.com

I have to say...it looks awful and very messy! Would you really want to be messing around with that in a public place?! :eek:

(On the note of that..with the mooncup, obviously the sinks are not always by the toilet, so what do u do when u need to clean it? Dont people stare?!)

Just thought i would ask other peoples opinions on the gynotex!!

6 for £12.99 P&P is charged at 79p on this

Seem very expensive to me. One advantage appears to be that you can have intercourse while wearing one. Though retrieving it later may be even messier.

Edit: Details from another more expensive website say this.
"Gynotex soft tampons have been designed for people who wish to have intercourse during their period." which perhaps explains the price.

Extremely pricey! I'm not interested in actually buying them, i'm just not sure if it is a bit of a con!

Well we were given a sample of this or something similar at work by a reputable condom manufacturer so I wouldn't think it was a con - just not something I'd fancy using myself! As Ted so accurately puts it ...

I'm sorry, but that is just too gross for words ...

Does anyone else think it's funny that the lady *enjoying her period with Gynotex* is wearing all white and lying in a white bed? Would you, honestly?

I don't like the description of how you insert and remove the thing either .... :eek: I'm sure that's all fine and dandy if you're slim, fit and trim, but with any sort of a belly on you you'd surely need arms like an orangutan to be able to do it.

Ooh, I feel sick now.

I looked in the FAQ, all it says is

FAQ's text...

Not very help full.

At least tampons have a cord to pull them out with, what happens if you have fake nails :eek: I dont know about anyone else but "doing it" is as far from my mind as possible during my period (yes even Johnny doesn't go there), where by chocolate is right next to the light switch.
I bet a man invented these

Bendybops19

EUGH! I know!! I cant even contemplate going anywhere near that close to that area during that time of the month! Esp not my bf!!!! Thats the last thing i want to do :rolleyes:

Haha imagine squatting in a public loo....!!! :eek:

Not so sure they will be a big hit :rolleyes:

Haha u really would need stretchy arms wouldnt u!

I dont understand how they dont sort of get 'lost' !

Given that they look rather like those big squashy marshmallows you buy in packets where half of them are white and half are pink, wouldn't it just be cheaper to use the marshmallows instead?? :eek:

If you worked it out right you might even end up with half a packet left after your period has finished that you can stuff your face with.

Kate

Yes, I know, that's really gross ... sorry ...

"Do not use after expiry date and existing hymen." what on EARTH does that mean????

I suppose they don't want virgins past their sell by date using them but as their primary purpose is to enable sexual intercourse during menses the question of the existing hymen would soon be resolved.
But when it comes to their puzzling instructions I like this one.

Don't use Gynotex soft-tampons during pregnancy without consulting your doctor. (fig. 6)

(fig 6) is a picture of a lady in a while coat holding a clipboard just in case there are any of their users who don't know how to recognise a doctor.

As one of the first signs of pregnancy is missing periods why on earth would anyone want to use them then?
