Edit: I have finally used my cup during heavy menustration. I skipped using it on vacation because I didn't want to deal with something I'm not comfortable with while hiking and stuff. It's definitely necessary to be very comfortable with yourself. I find I have a little bit of trouble getting the cup to pop open after insertion but it after some maneuvering it does. Even on heavy days it doesn't really leak much but I pop it open and kind of pull down on it some to make a seal. I think the leaking is just the blood that is under the cup after insertion but it's a pink color and doesn't go through my panties or anything (I always wear black panties on my period).
Removal requires two hands. It very much could be a very messy accident. I am a housewife and I do not go to a job so I do this in the bathroom naked. When I start working again I will probably buy the bigger cup but we'll see if this can hold a full first day of menustration. After a few hours on the first day I removed it mostly out of curiosity and it spilled on the floor so I still don't know if the small size is all I need.
I am very happy with the comfort, I did not remove the stem and I use it to locate it inside of me. I am not worried about it getting lost. It does not cause me any discomfort and it is much less gross than a tampon when you need to go to the bathroom for other reasons than your period. I really hate when I have to go to the bathoom with a tampon in because the string hangs down and when you wipe, it goes up your butt. I usually remove my tampon every time I go to the bathoom but with this thing in, it doesn't get in the way. I heard pooping was difficult but I just found that I don't push quite as hard and it's not that weird. When I'm on my period, I don't need to push anyways.
Edit 2: I decided to go ahead and purchase the larger one so I can wear it longer and maybe hike with it. It was a little annoying to wear the small one because I did have to change it every few hours on a heavy period but after my period is done being heavy, I almost don't need to wear anything. I wish I had just purchased the big one to begin with because it's not like I can give it away but oh well. I have a low cervix on my period so I wasn't sure but I think the bigger one will be fine because it's so soft. I will probably update after use.
Edit 3: I am now happy I have both the big and small. I wear the small on that day when you think you will start your period, but you're not sure. Especially if I'm out. It's small enough it's not too bothersome on that day. I also wear it on light days and at night, although the bigger one could probably work on these days as well. I have gotten better at dealing with leaks. Cups work differently than tampons and they don't soak up blood so you have to take some extra precautions to prevent leaks (although the leaking isn't like a tampon leak unless your cup isn't big enough, even when I was leaking I could just wipe it away and not worry much). So I have found that if you wear a cup all the time, you will leak less. This means at night while sleeping. If not, you can put the cup in and then take a half bath for 15 minutes or so. This removes a lot of the excess blood. If you are short on time, you can wet your fingers with water and then rotate your fingers around the cup to remove any blood that may be around it, do it a few times. Leaking is pretty much only a problem on your heavy days, on light days, it's not an issue.
Removal: I'm a lot better at removal. I can now get it every time in under a minute and I have little hands, although I am a bit limber which helped a lot at first lol but now it doesn't matter that much. I actually use a different technique for the big and small. So for both I hike up one leg on the bathtub or toilet with the lid down. I break the seal. I use the pointy part to locate and perhaps move it. For the small, I can reach the top of the cup and I pull it out from the top. It is easier to remove. Now, the large is more difficult to remove because I cannot reach the top of the cup when it is in place. Instead, I grip it from the bottom and pull it out from the bottom. Pressing down can help. When I first started using it, removal was kind of stressful and once I did fail and have to wait 10 minutes before trying again. But now I can remove it in a minute. I have never removed it in a public place but with the big one, I probably won't have to. If I anticipate I cannot make it home in less than 12 hours (and you might be able to get more than 12 hours out if it in a pinch depending on how heavy you are), I would wear thinx underwear and just wait until I got home, myself. Or maybe try removing it halfway in the day before it is very full because removing these things is messy and in a stall, I just can't imagine.
One last precaution, these are very comfortable and you may forget you are wearing them. Especially near the end of your period when it is lighter. I didn't die but now my cup has a weird smell. I did a lot of things to the cup to make the smell better like washing it a lot, airing it out, and I soaked it in water that had a little bit of essential lavender oil in it (the only thing that worked), and then boiled it again. It still has a smell but it's an improvement. I'm sure the manufacturer would not suggest the essential oil thing but it still works and didn't irritate my body. I don't suggest doing this often to the cup, I'm not someone who tries to use scented things or anything. I was just desperate. I read some people set alarms to let them know when they need to change it, because you just don't feel like you're on your period and it's easy to forget.
Turns out it wasn't even necessary. I've been using the large cup for twenty-four hours now and I haven't had a single issue that any of the negative reviews state. In fact, all I have to say is positive. For starters, I can go for up to about six hours before I feel like I have to empty the cup. It definitely takes some getting used to as far as insertion and removal, but once you get the hang of it, you're golden! I played cards against humanity last night with my nephew and laughed so hard I felt the cup flex a lot like it was breathing and thought I might blow it right out (which had me laughing harder and no, I didn't share that with him lol), but it stayed in place and worked perfectly.
Last night was my first night using the cup and while, yes, I should have probably emptied prior to going to bed I didn't and had zero issues. We're talking TEN hours with a flow that typically uses ultra absorbency tampons (granted I was stationary), and no leaks at all. I'm totally in awe of what this product has done for me.
I haven't used the small cup yet, but as for the regular you know it's there. It isn't like you insert and forget which is a good thing. Since TSS is an issue you WANT to know it's there. At first, I noticed that I felt like I needed to urinate after it was in, but after a few hours of wear that feeling stopped. The sensation takes a little bit to get used to, but it doesn't have that abrasive friction and constant irritation that I was getting from tampons. Nobody needs that. Why do we still make them?
If you're having trouble with insertion and removal there's plenty of helpful videos on YouTube and QandA's on Google. If you're new to the cup or considering, this is worth the investment. I'm twenty-four hours in and refuse to go back to tampons. Saalt makes a wonderful product and I'll be singing their praises to whomever is willing to listen. Do yourself a favor and get it. It's worth the investment and money you'll save as well as cutting back on unnecessary pain associated with tampon use.
Update: I switched to the small cup later on in the evening of day two. It was harder to insert the cup and as it turns out, I wasn't bleeding as heavy (keep this in mind for later). Easier time overall using the small cup and also didn't have leaking issues.
Emptied each time I went to the bathroom so say... Every four to six hours or so. I was about 60 hours or so into my cycle or about two and a half days when I noticed there wasn't really anything to empty. I figured hey, probably due to gravity and the fact that I had been lying down using a heating pad (again, back problems *cough, cough, old*) and nothing really moved down that way. I even wiped and noticed nothing. Ok, weird. It happens. Roughly another six or more hours later and I use the bathroom again (it's hot as hell, I'm drinking a lot of water, don't judge me) and I reach in, break the suction and go to empty... Nothing. There's nothing at all to empty. Confused now, and assuming what I was hoping to be true had just happened, I went on the internet and discovered a few blerbs on Google and then came across an entire article by Vice. There's an entire website dedicated to cups called Put A Cup In It. I'm stating these things because there's a physical effect to using a cup. Not only did I just have the least painful period of my life, but I also just had the shortest. I just had a period that lasted about two and a half days. This happens to 53% of women that switch to using the cup. It's a completely understudied phenomenon and it's a shame it isn't more widely known for all of woman kind. It takes getting used to, but it's so worth it. If I had known I'd be in less pain every month and bleed for WAY fewer days I would have switch such a long time ago. Make the switch and liberate yourself.

Ho deciso di provare le soft e tutto si é risolto!
Si apre facilmente anche se è più morbida! Consiglio a tutte. Mai più senza.
I am gentle of course however I haven’t had this issue with any other cup.
I’ve moved on to a more durable one which works although I wish I could keep using the Saalt ones due to softness, shape and aesthetic. If they improved the end I would recommend to everyone.
