menstrual_cups community. That said, hello everyone!I've been using a small Diva Cup for about a year and have had no complaints other than sometimes it makes me feel like I have to pee when I don't. I'm guessing this is from pressure either on my urethra or the urethral sponge. I'm wondering what cups wouldn't do this - as in, do I need it to be a smaller diameter or just a shorter cup? I know no one here knows my specific anatomy, but I would love if anyone could give me a general idea.
I'm happy to be here!
ETA: This pressure also results in UTI-like symptoms, so I'm thinking from the comments I need maybe a small Lady Cup? I'm just worried about the capacity for the first heavy day of my period.
ETA again: I bought a small Lady Cup. I have never even filled my Diva 1/2 of the way, so I figured a small would be better. Also, I want the shortest and squishiest cup so that I don't have the urethra issues. I am going to keep my Diva for my only heavy day and use the Lady Cup the rest of my cycle. Thanks everyone!
