A QUICK FIT CHECK

IS SOFTDISC RIGHT FOR ME?

If you want comfortable period protection that moves with your life—not another product you have to plan around—start here.

A quick fit check

Softdisc may feel like freedom if…

It sits at the base of the cervix instead of plugging the vaginal canal. When placed correctly, you should not be able to feel it.

Swim
Sleep
Intimacy
01

You want up to 12 hours of protection.

02

You want period care you can wear while swimming, exercising, sleeping, or having sex.

03

Tampons or cups can leave you feeling dry, irritated, or uncomfortable.

04

You are open to a short learning curve for insertion and removal.

Bodies are different

Softdisc is designed to fit the majority of menstruators, but every internal shape is unique. If it does not fit comfortably, stop and review the fit guidance or ask a healthcare professional.

See the difference

A disc is not a cup—and it does not work like a tampon.

Softdisc collects menstrual fluid at the base of the cervix, leaving the vaginal canal unobstructed. That different placement is what makes its wear experience different.

Getting started with Softdisc

Three small steps. A little practice. Up to 12 hours of freedom.

01

Pinch

Wash your hands, then pinch Softdisc in half so the rim forms a narrow figure eight.

02

Insert

Slide it back and down toward the cervix as far as it comfortably goes.

03

Tuck

Tuck the front rim behind the pubic bone. When it is placed correctly, you should not feel it.

First-time questions

Before you try it

These answers come from Softdisc’s current usage guidance. For personal medical concerns, talk with a healthcare professional.

Will I be able to feel it?

When Softdisc is positioned correctly, you should not be able to feel it. If it feels uncomfortable, remove it and try again after reviewing the placement instructions.

Can I sleep or swim in Softdisc?

Softdisc is designed for protection while sleeping, swimming, and exercising, for up to 12 hours of wear.

Can I wear it during sex?

Softdisc can be worn during penetrative vaginal sex because it sits at the base of the cervix rather than blocking the vaginal canal. It is not a contraceptive and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

What if it leaks when I use the bathroom?

Bearing down can cause some fluid to release. The existing Softdisc guidance says this does not necessarily mean the disc needs to be changed; retuck the rim behind the pubic bone afterward.

This is probably the most life changing product I have ever bought and used. These are absolutely fantastic and an absolute must for the rest of my entire menstruating life. I cannot recommend these enough. I will go to the ends of the earth to keep this product on hand.

I love these!!! Sooo much better than tampons!!! No pain when removing like tampons sometimes do. No mess or skin irritation from pads.

I was looking for something that would allow me to have sex during my period. This works perfectly. My husband doesn't even notice I'm wearing it. Great invention. I love it.
