Missed advertising hooks: if you accidentally spray natural deodorant in your mouth it tastes much better than the chemically stuff.

Yesterday I accidentally put my mooncup in sideways. It sort of popped out before I was ready for it. When I tried to push it round it went the wrong way so it was upside down. And then I couldn't get it out, because in addition to being upside down it was also caught on my cervix.I was very very calm about this, but just when I was deciding very very calmly that I would probably have to go to casualty, I managed to unhook it. Sore cervix, but no doctors.

Ouch for the cervix but go you for remaining calm and not having to go to casualty. I am occasionally tempted to try out a mooncup, but I always chicken out and stay with my lunapads.

Ouch. Squirm. Etc.

Erk. ERK. How on earth? Now I'm going to be all paranoid that I'll manage to do that too.

Ow! I've never managed to do that, though I have put mine in sideways before now. Much sympathy.

This is why nothing is going up mine unless it's attached to something which remains outside. Just sayin'. ;-P

Mooncup HORROR! Glad to hear it's out.

Eurrg!

When my periods re-started (11.5 months after giving birth), I started using a Lunette cup, thanks to all the recs on LJ. Pretty good, except that the little bit on the end you yank it out with sometimes gets into a position where it jabs as I move and OWowOW! Have now trimmed it, which seems to have helped.

Lucky you didn't end up going into Casualty... unless UK doctors are very much more cup-savvy than Australian ones (you can't even buy menstrual cups in Australia - I ordered mine viz NZ), I suspect they wouldn't have had a clue what it was.
