If you’ve only just heard of a menstrual disc, it’s natural to have questions. This guide gives you an introduction, so you’ll quickly discover how easy and life-changing this alternative to tampons and pads can be.

What is a menstrual disc?

A menstrual disc is a reusable menstrual product that collects blood instead of absorbing it like tampons and pads do. It is shaped like a flexible bowl that is placed in the vaginal fornix – the area just below the cervix. This means that it sits higher than a menstrual cup and does not create a vacuum, providing a comfortable and almost imperceptible fit. A menstrual disc can be worn for up to 12 hours at a time and provides a leak-free, sustainable and comfortable menstrual experience.

What are the benefits of a menstrual disc?

You’ll love a menstrual disc because there are so many benefits compared to disposable hygiene products.

Eco-friendly & Sustainable – One disc can last for years, reducing waste and minimizing your environmental footprint. No more single-use products filling bins and landfills.

Better for your body – Made from 100% medical-grade silicone with no chemicals, perfume or synthetic fibres.

More capacity, fewer worries – Elskbar Menstrual Disc has a higher capacity than tampons and pads and can hold up to 50ml, allowing for fewer changes and more freedom.

Gentle & Comfortable – When it’s correctly inserted, you won’t feel it! Unlike tampons, it doesn’t cause dryness, discomfort or irritation and your mucous membranes don’t absorb any chemicals.

Up to 12 hours of protection – Use it all day or night without leaks. Many users completely forget that they are menstruating when using a disc!

Easy to use – It’s perfectly normal to have to practice inserting and removing the disc, just like with any new menstrual product. A great place to start is in the shower, where you can relax and experiment without worries. After a few cycles, you’ll likely find that it’s the easiest and most comfortable menstrual solution you’ve ever tried.

Can be used during sex – Unlike cups or tampons, the disc sits higher in the vagina, making it the only reusable menstrual product that can be used during intimacy without getting in the way.
