what is a menstrual disc?

introduction to menstrual discs

A menstrual disc is an innovative, reusable period product designed to collect menstrual fluid rather than absorb it. Made from medical-grade silicone, it provides a comfortable and eco-friendly alternative to disposable pads and tampons.

The my mimi menstrual disc offers up to 12 hours of leak-free protection, making it a convenient option for active lifestyles.

how does a menstrual disc work?

Unlike a menstrual cup, which creates suction and sits in the vaginal canal, a menstrual disc is positioned just below the cervix. This unique placement allows for a more comfortable fit and even helps reduce cramps for some users.
