Menstrual cups are almost too good to be true!

I have used a combination of pads and tampons since I started menses when I was 13. I've had plenty of bad experiences with both, but didn't know of any other option. ob tampons are probably my favorites, because there's not so much disposable to deal with.
But disposable products smell, and I don't know of any way to eliminate that. I have gone on two overseas trips lasting a few weeks, and the places our groups were had no garbage facilities. Of course I had my period on the trip both times, which means that I had to store all my used products in plastic baggies until I could discard them. It doesn't matter how many times you wrap those things, they stink like nothing else and the smell permeates everything! It is the nastiest thing ever.
Just this last fall I heard about Diva cup and decided to order one. What a difference! No more stained panties, smell, or having to think about changing products. And they truly are comfortable. I was a little skeptical when I heard women saying they couldn't even feel the cup, but now that I've tried it I know that's the truth! I had a little trouble with the stem, but trimmed it down a bit and now I can't even tell I'm wearing anything. I almost forget about the cup sometimes. More women should use these! They are the best thing ever.
