How to Remove Your my mimi Menstrual Disc
The my mimi menstrual disc features a flexible design with a removal loop tab for added convenience. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Locate the Disc
Gently insert your finger into your vagina until you feel the front rim of the disc. If the disc feels high, bear down slightly with your pelvic muscles to bring it closer to the vaginal opening.
Step 2: Use the Removal Loop
Hook your finger through the my mimi disc’s removal loop tab. This feature is designed to make retrieval simple and stress-free.
Step 3: Remove the Disc
- Slowly pull the disc out, keeping it parallel to the floor to avoid spills.
- If needed, use your other hand to gently press the rim for better control during removal.
- Allow the menstrual disc to empty into the toilet.
Tips for Easy and Mess-Free Removal
1. Practice Before Your Period
Try inserting and removing your my mimi menstrual disc with a water-based lubricant before your period starts. This helps you get comfortable with the process.
2. Remove in the Shower
The shower is a great place to practice or regularly remove your disc. It’s a splash-friendly environment that reduces mess.
3. Use the "Auto-Dump" Technique
Before removal, bear down gently to allow the disc to self-empty. This minimises spillage and makes the process cleaner.
4. Line the Toilet Bowl
Placing toilet paper in the bowl before removal helps reduce splashback and makes clean-up easier.
5. Keep a Water Bottle Handy
If you’re on the go, bring a small water bottle to rinse your my mimi disc after removal. This is especially useful when you’re out and about or at work.
Choosing the Best Position for Removal
Everyone’s body is different, so experiment with various positions to find what works best for you. Some find squatting the most effective, while others prefer standing or sitting. The my mimi disc’s removal loop tab ensures flexibility in your approach.
Why Relaxation Matters
Stress or anxiety can cause your pelvic muscles to tighten, making removal more difficult. To ease tension:
- Take slow, deep breaths.
- Ensure you’re in a private, comfortable space.
- Remind yourself that removal gets easier with practice.
