[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL!  I thought I was the only one with this problem!!! Why does no one talk about it???

I've never tried OB, so many people here have suggested it, I must give it a try.  I hear the PP on the dryness, even a normal tampon can be a problem without the "gentle glide" applicator.

About the Diva Cup, that always grossed me out.  Don't you keep it up there for 24 hours?  I have to think there would be a stink factor that would turn me off from that.  The whole concept just creeps me out.  Can the PP explain the details of the Diva Cup?[/quote]

I'm the PP that posted about Diva Cup. No, you do not leave it in for 24 hours. On my very heavy days, I actually have to remove it every hour. That's why tampons don't work for me. I overflow way too soon. According to the website it can be left in for up to 12 hours. It's messy the first few times you use it. Takes a little getting used to. I had a big problems with tampons because they dry me out. I'd hate when I had one in, and it wasn't time to change it, but I knew I was about to get in the car for an hour...so I had to take it out too soon and it hurt! Diva Cup doesn't dry me out and I can change it as often as I want. It's a lot easier to change it at home, because I have access to a sink so I can rinse it out. In public bathrooms I just dump it in the toilet and then wipe it out with a little toilet paper before inserting it again.
