Diva it Up!

Have you heard of this?  Taken from the company's website:

"The DivaCup is a reusable, bell-shaped menstrual cup that is worn internally and sits low in the vaginal canal, collecting rather than absorbing your menstrual flow".

So yeah, it's exactly how it sounds.  A cup that collects your menstrual flow that sits inside you.  A couple of my friends have been using it - it comes with great benefits:

- 12 hour leak free protection
- More natural, free from colours, dyes etc
- Apparently very easy to use
- And most importantly, reusable so it's incredibly environmentally friendly

Sounds great - but could I do it?  I'm not so sure.  I love change, but when it comes to this stuff I like to stick to old faithfuls.  What happens if you're travelling for 15 hours straight??  Where do you empty and rinse this thing - in a public washroom...barf.

The environmental benefits and health benefits do add up - so much so I think I'll give it a whirl - stay tuned for my review.
