Saalt Reusable Menstrual Disc

I was unsure about trying the disc after using the cup for years. I decided to give it a go and am so glad I did. The suction from the cup would sometimes bother me by the end of the day. Since the disc doesn’t use suction, I barely even noticed it. It is a learning curve getting it inserted correctly. I do like that it holds more than the cup and can self empty if I want it to. This was really helpful on my heavy days. Definitely recommend trying the disc!

Using this menstrual disc has been a game changer for me. I no longer dread getting my period every month. I can sleep peacefully without worrying about ruining my sheets and underwear. I can workout and run errands without worrying about leaks or just feeling like I'm wearing a diaper the whole day. Cups just didn't work for me, because my flow was too heavy and they would fill up and leak after 3-4 hours. I can go 6 hours with the disc on my heaviest day, maybe longer, but I try to at least dump it every 6 hours. I can go 8-12 hours on my medium/light days. There was a slight learning curve, but so much easier than learning how to use a cup. I would suggest finding your cervix and angling the disc towards it during insertion. My cervix is towards the left side, so I would angle the disc that way. The notch it also super helpful, and makes removal so much easier.

I had previously used a cup - didn't work great for me because it was uncomfortable/made my cramps worse. I switched to the soft cup - much better, easy to use, worked well, was more comfortable. I bought a disc when I got the soft cup but it just so much more intimidating I didn't try it for a while and now I'm kicking myself! It is so much nicer! No leaks, comfy. I honestly thought I was doing it wrong because it was so much easier than the cup. I always felt like I really had to check that nothing was folded over weird and with the disc it is so fast and easy. Very happy.

I'm just so happy I no longer dread my periods anymore! First two periods were a steep learning curve but after over 6 months of owning the disc I literally forgot how much I bleed and how uncomfortable I used to be. I only leaked when I purposefully tested it's capacity for several hours, and other than that once it goes in I have no care in the world. Sometimes there are days when my cervix is a pain to work with and putting in the disc can be a bit hard, and on other days it positions itself perfectly on it's own. Also I don't know if it's universal, but it seems to press a bit on my urethra and I do take longer in the bathroom lol, but it never got stuck for me. So thank you for helping me function normally, I'm grateful every month <3

I am a first time disc user and it's very soft and comfortable. Definitely recommended

Loved the boy short underwear! I usually wear a 16 size pant and the XL fit great. And I love how the pad goes from all the way in the front to all the way in the back! You can literally sleep in any position and you’re good. I loved the disposable discs so wanted to get a re-usable one. But the regular one is too big and never stays is place for me. I want to try the smaller one but don’t want to spend the extra money after the regular one didn’t work for me. But highly recommend the undies!

I was convinced at first that I was wearing it wrong because of how comfortable and easy to insert it is. I was absolutly wowed that my 2-4 leaks per period that I was expecting came out to 0! If you want something comfortable, easy to use, and eco friendly THIS is what you need.

I had high hopes and really wanted to stop using tampons. I’ve tried a menstrual cup from a different brand in the past, and it never stayed in well. So I thought I’d give the disc a try. It was really comfortable, but always leaked. I couldn’t get it to stay tucked in my pubic bone, no matter how many ways I tried inserting it. Maybe I need a different size, but it just didn’t work for me and I’m getting discouraged. It came with a cute bag and I really wanted to love it!

I have tried two different brands of cups before and they did not work for me. I could not get them to seal and they were uncomfortable. I absolutely am loving the disk! I can’t feel it at all and no leaks thus far (it’s been 3 days). I struggled with removing it the first two times as it got stuck behind my pubic bone. Now that I have a bit of practice, it is much easier to remove.

To start, I definitely ordered the wrong size (Small), I thought a smaller size would be easier for me to get in. It was, but then the trouble was getting it out, I REALLY had trouble (I did get it out, but not without great effort). However, the problem would have been the same even if it was the correct size: removal. The notch isn’t very helpful if you can’t really get a grip on it. I needed to get a finger and thumb inside (a difficult task for me, personally) and get enough space worked up to open them to actually pinch it and pull it out. Hooking wasn’t possible because it just kept catching and dragging on the pubic bone. I know the size wouldn’t have made a difference because I had the same problem with the Cora Soft Fit Disc, which is about the size of Saalt Disc Regular. I’ve been trying a lot of reusable menstrual products — including this one, I’m up to 4, and I have 3 more on the way to try — and still have yet to find one that works for me, but I’ll keep trying! The Saalt Teen Cup is one of my products on the way; here’s hoping that could be the one that works for me! Background, if that helps anyone: 31-year old virgin, doesn’t masturbate, possibly has vaginismus, can have trouble getting tampons in if they’re any bigger than a regular, especially if they don’t have a plastic applicator.

I had high hopes this would work well as I have used a diaphragm in the past. Unfortunately I cannot get it to sit correctly and it leaks terribly. I have a low cervix during my period and a rectocele which may be causing the incompatibility with my body.

I absolutely love how seamless this cup feels when worn for 12 hours a day. I literally can participate in all my usual activities without worrying about a leak. I'd recommend all the girls to get one!

Switched to Saalt disc after using another brand, it stays in place better for my lower cervix and seems to hold more so I don't have to dump as often! You have to see what works best for your body as we are all different!

This is my second brand I’m trying with a disc, and this one leaked just like the first brand. It works fine on light days, but my first 2 heavy days it leaks constantly. I can’t trust it to keep me from having leaks and stains.

I recently got my IUD put in and i get very heavy bleeding but once I correctly put it in i wouldnt change it for hours and i just kept on a panty liner.

I love this product I’m never going back to tampons or pads ever again this is literally like life changing. Just a warning it is messy and different than tampons but you can wear it up to 12 hours and during nighttime so that’s awesome!

At first, I tried the Saalt Disc in both sizes. The small fit better, but it was very hard to remove without a stem or string, and the regular didn’t work for me at all—it wouldn’t insert fully and kept folding inside. Because I have a low cervix, neither disc was the right choice. What truly impressed me was how caring the Saalt team was. They guided me with patience and kindness, and offered me the Saalt Cup as an alternative. The cup turned out to be perfect—comfortable, easy to use, and a great fit for my body. My advice: don’t give up if the first product doesn’t work for you. Everybody is different, and sometimes it takes a little trial and error to find the right option. In the end, it’s so worth it—for your comfort, your health, and the planet :earth_americas::purple_heart:

Have a high cervix? The disc is a must. I tried a cup but found them incredibly difficult to remove having a high cervix. This disc is so soft and can’t feel a thing inside. I find it a little uncomfortable to place but I think that is part of my own learning curve. Can still be hard to reach but if you “bear down” while pulling it slips right out! Changed my life!!

The disc is wonderful!
