Pixie Menstrual Disc Applicator - Inserts Like A Tampon - Every Woman Can Now Use Period Discs - Perfect for Long Nails - Self Sterilizer TPE Properties - Travel Case - NOT for Menstrual Cups

Update: I have found that practicing the scooping method when using the disc works really well. So far it seems to be in place and there have been no leaks. Admittedly, I'm only at the beginning of my cycle so time will tell as I get a bit heavier whether it is in place properly or not. For those that might find the pull string a bit uncomfortable, I found tucking it under the bottom of the disc keeps it out of the way and prevents rubbing but is also then easy to access when you need to pull the cup out. ----------- Original review: I bought these because I was desperate to get away from big towels, especially during the heatwave. I find the idea of these easier and a little less 'invasive' than cups especially as there is no suction holding it in place so you can easily pull it out (my hands get stiff from time to time so I lose movability). I found it easy to put in, however, on the day I used them my cervix decided to shift towards my tail bone and I found, even with the applicator, I couldn't quite get it 'tucked' at the back. So I invested in the pixie cup too. This isn't a fault with the product and I have kept them for the days my cervix behaves itself as I felt it was much easier to put the disc in than the cup, especially with checking if it had opened properly. Pros- Excellent bundle. Having 2 different sizes helps you to find your 'fit'. The sanitising bowl is fantastic. I used it both ways, in the microwave and with boiled water fresh from the kettle. Easy to do either. Having the cleansing gel and wipes means you always know your product is clean before reuse. The travel lube is handy too, so if you do need to empty and reuse your disc whilst out it means you don't need to carry a big pump/bottle around with you. The little canvas bags are colour matched to the colour of the disc which makes it easier to see which size you're grabbing without having to open them all. And they all fit nicely in the black bag for monthly storage. Cons- If your cervix shifts you may find it a bit tricky to get into the right position. It is possible but requires a bit of practice, which is why I'll try again on my next cycle, even if I shift, to see if I can get it to work. ******** Frustratingly, I cannot review the applicator separately so I will do it here. I found this applicator is very good for helping to keep the disc folded during insertion as, due to my hands, I was finding it tricky to keep it folded. Being able to change the end of the 'plunger' part to match the size of the disc is also handy. The only issue I have is the cleaning aspect. Yes, it can be cleaned with water and a suitable cleanser but I find it tricky to rinse inside the applicator, especially if it's been a messy insertion. Having a small brush like item to help with this would make it even better. It is larger than a super plus tampon but I found using lube made using this really easy. Definitely worth the investment if you struggle to keep your disc folded whilst inserting.

**Initial Review** Wrong kit sent to me and missing the smallest disc. The kit I ordered included the applicator (see screengrabs) but I've received the kit without the applicator (see photos). I've contacted Pixie Cup directly to resolve the issue. Once I get a response I'll update my review and rating accordingly. The disc received feels good quality but it does look rather large and not sure how it'll fit, time will tell when period arrives. I use cups occasionally but I don't like that I can't reach to remove them easily so thought I'd try discs instead. Also wanted something that can be used during sex. I'll update review if my issues are resolved accordingly and after using the product. Won't allow me to upload the photo and screenshot! *****Updated review***** **Seller** I contacted the seller re the issues above. They sent the missing items out quickly. Although Amazon driver left them on my doorstep and I was away overnight. Luckily the parcel was there when I arrived home which makes a change! **Product review** I've used the large disc and haven't had any issues with use, but removal is messy. I used the lubricant included for the first few insertions. The applicator was sent seperate so couldn't try this. However, the insertion was easy, much easier than anticipated and so much easier than the cups I've used previously. Used for 12 hours without leaks, even on day 2 of my period which is very heavy and I have to change every 1-2 hours. Used 8 hours on this day which is great for me. It auto empties when peeing which is bizarre to me, however I like this as it means I can change it less. Removal is easy using the 'tassel' but it can be messy, I wouldn't want to do this anywhere but home, but maybe I'll change my mind on that in the future as my technique improves. I cut off the tassel on my replacement disc so that we could use this for sex. My partner couldn't feel it and it didn't leak. It was emptied prior to sex, I'd recommend this for less chance of leakage. I've removed the disc without the 'tassel', it was easy to hook it with finger when bearing down and it removed easily but was messy. Luckily I was in the shower so the mess was easily resolved. I'm converted. I'll use discs going forward, with panty liners just in case it does leak at any point.

I have been a cup user for several years and loved my cup until it broke, the replacement just wasn't up to much. After some researching I decided to try a pixie disk and am so glad I went for this pack. The choice of 2 disk sizes is great, although I have only tried the larger one so far, as well as the wash, steriliser, lube, stain remover and large carry bag. The disk itself is amazing! This is my first cycle using it and I have been so impressed. The first few times inserting were a little difficult and needed reinsertion a few times as it wasn't properly inserted but after a few attempts I got the hang of it, 4 days in and I'm a pro. I have had no leaks which is impressive after 2 runs (5km on 2nd day and a 6km), dance workout, gardening and 2 days in work (school so lots of getting up and down off the carpet). I barely feel it once inserted although I do tuck the tail up as it sits slightly uncomfortable if left to hang but I am reluctant to remove as it is very helpful when removing the disk. I would recommend this to anyone that is considering a new form of menstrual protection, it is fanatic.

First time user, the quality looks and feels good but disappointed I didn't get applicator as that was the main reason I bought this one instead of the one with the self clean device. I struggled to get it in and not sure if it will leak but will wait and see.

I bought this because I misplace my old disc and that brand is now unavailable on Amazon I think the packaging is a great deal as you get a lot for just £35. Unfortunately the disc don’t work well for me as long time user of menstrual disc and cups. I have a lower cervix and the large disc is just uncomfortable and can feel it when in use. The medium disc is a good size but even though I tuck it under my pelvic bone it eventually pops out causing leaks. I do think it’s just cos of the shape of the disc and my body anatomy. I noticed that the pixie disc are oval in shape and my old disc was circle. I just think that discs that are circle fit more comfortably in me. I will be using all the other bits that came in the bag and the bag itself cos it very good quality.

Getting a menstrual disc positioned correctly can be quite challenging, often leading many to give up. However, this product has been a game changer for me! I've been using it alongside another brand's disc for a couple of cycles, and it has made the experience easy and comfortable. I can enjoy spontaneous intimacy without worry or mess, eliminating the need for frequent bathroom breaks. During my first use, I had an "Ah-ha!" moment. I realised that my previous struggles with discs stemmed from my lack of reach, which made proper positioning difficult. This product simplifies insertion and helps ensure correct placement. If you're having trouble with menstrual discs, I highly recommend this product. It's straightforward, effective, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

If you are considering getting this set, get it. If you're wondering whether it'd worth the cost, it is. Honestly I believe everyone woman should have this set. It comes in a bag which helps keep everything together, hygenic and is to stock when your cycle is finished. The duo of cup size is great for varying flow in the cycle. I also got the applicator to help pop the disc in. I previously had another brand but really struggled getting it in and out and forever had to wear a pad as it always leaked. So far with the applicator it's always be securely in place and the little toggle makes removing so much less messy too. I also purchased the steamer. Get it!! Pixie you have absolutely nailed periods. Thank you.

Doesn't matter what i do.. I have tried and tried with this after successfully using mooncups but hating the suction.. This has been my worst purchase. Expensive, Waste of money, doesn't matter how many videos I watch, or how many times I tried. Even purchased the applicator separately and it has made no difference. Cannot recommend
