                                                                                      It is debatable whether one should do during the Mens reversing positions. For example, the headstand in yoga or if you're a couple of degrees times fast trapeze exercises! Different experts have different opinions about their back-flow of blood. Some say it's not good, if the blood can flow back. Others, it did not matter. And my third, the blood can not flow back properly. I do not answer!I suspect (but can not attest!) That it is not bad if you do not spend hours with his head hanging down and you hear on your body if it feels uncomfortable.

                                                                                      For now I find the swimming menstrual cup genius! She threatens rauszuflutschen not when it is full. You do not even after each swim gear, running to the loo, because they "leak" threatening. And finally, hanging in the wardrobe no blue thread "rum below". Some of the menstrual cup during the swimming and diving is also (!) Completely sealed. For others, it happens that pure water is flowing a bit, which should not affect the functionality though.

                                                                                      Over night

                                                                                      Also on the night you'll need menstrual cup. To some it is not haunted, slosharound when the blood can ... others feel nothing at all of them. You should have the latest menstrual cup after 8 hours, empty and clean, to avoid a possible negative bacteria and odor development. However, it is not tragic, ifyou may sometimes sleep 10 hours at a stretch ... sleep! Consider thataccording to the manufacturer's maximum of 8, 10 or even 12 hours, thespeech.

                                                                                      Especially during the peak days (if you have those!) And if you sleep long, cancompletely fill the cup and the Löchli can become clogged. This can cause the cup is no longer quite dense. Then maybe you need a panty liner (for example, a Stoffslipeinlage) or a small bandage, or you have simply equal to the loo in the morning, before you make great gymnastics.

                                                                                      The problem arises, however, usually only the really strong days and nightson. Many women who fills the cup at night only a little, because they lose muchless blood than they thought.

                                                                                      No proper seal?

                                                                                      Also a full menstrual cup should not fall out, because it is still held by the muscles. It may be, however, that this will block the small holes and the slightnegative pressure is solved by itself. This can cause the menstrual cup is notvery tight and may expire. Do not worry! All the blood spilling then suddenlynot easy! It behaves just like tampons and pads: are also sometime full, no more "tight" and must be changed ... and there's usually an accident.

                                                                                      By the time you know your blood flow and know after how many hours youhave to empty the menstrual cup ... unless you forget it, because you do notfeel it!

                                                                                      Important!
                                                                                      After 8 hours (or even 10 or 12, depending on the manufacturer!) You shouldmenstrual cup empty, no matter how full or empty it is, just like with tampons!

                                                                                      Blubb.Blubb.Gefühl

                                                                                      If the menstrual cup slowly fills with blood, must be released to the air present therein. If it does, it fills up like a "Blubber-blub", as if blood would spill out. But if you are wearing at the beginning or as an additional protection, a bandage,then you'll quickly notice that it is only just air. This additional protection is primarily to the fact that you can take confidence in your menstrual cup and you run not under pressure because they must be sealed immediately. Then, when the binding is beautifully white, great! If not, then you just have to practice a little.

                                                                                      Scheidenmilieu

                                                                                      Unlike tampons, menstrual cup sucks the blood on either your or the mucous membranes, but collects them. Thus it dries out your mucous membranes is notand does not alter the vaginal environment. You can be your naturalAbwehkräfte intact. For some women, it has the pleasant side effect that this willno longer cause fungal infections.

                                                                                      The vaginal environment is not beaten by the removal of dry tampons too. Andthen you can use the menstrual cup, even at very low (or no!) Blood flow need. Itprevents you, for example, nothing about introducing your cup in the morning, ifyou think that in the course of the day the bleeding begins. She has not used,there is no problem.

                                                                                      Some women report that they have with the use of a menstrual cup less pain. Amenstrual cup is not a cure! It is between the normal menstrual pain and "paincaused by outside" distinction! It is true that many women are sensitive to the toxic residues in the tampons and the vaginal dryness. This is manifested byweak or stronger forms of dizziness, headache, nausea, etc. Because it isseldom mentioned, they imagine that these are normal menstrual pain, or that they are the only ones with these symptoms. Apparently there are very manywomen who suffer. Although not all women react so violently it I wonder howsomething "good" may be what causes some women, such reactions.

                                                                                      The menstrual cups do not heal "from the outside caused pain"!
