Switching to a reusable menstrual product is an exciting step, and menstrual discs can be a great choice! But how do you find the right size? Let’s simplify it.
Why Menstrual Discs?
Menstrual discs offer up to 12 hours of wear, hold more fluid than tampons, pads, and period cups, and don’t rely on suction, making them ideal for IUD users. They can last up to 10 years, have self-emptying capabilities, and allow for mess-free period sex.
Cervix Height Matters
Understanding your cervix height is key to finding the perfect fit. Since it can move throughout your cycle, measuring it during your period can help. A lower cervix may mean a smaller disc is better, while a higher cervix might call for a larger size.

Small vs. Regular
Small: Best for lower cervix, teens, light flow, or sensitivity to larger products.
Regular: Great for higher cervix, heavier flow, or those who’ve given birth vaginally.
Tips for Success
Consider your flow, age, childbirth history, and pelvic floor strength. Trial and error may be necessary, so be patient with the process. Pair a menstrual disc with leakproof underwear for the ultimate period protection!
Switching to a reusable menstrual disc is a sustainable, comfortable choice that simplifies your period and reduces waste, making it a win for you and the planet!
