Pixie Menstrual Disc for Feminine Care - Ranked 1 for Best Tampon Alternative Period Disc - 100% Medical-Grade Silicone - Removes Like a Tampon - Wear 12 Hours - Capacity of 7 Tampons (Large)

I just finished my cycle and let me tell you, my life is CHANGED. At first, I was quite scared to try the disc just because it was unfamiliar with it and because I was scared it would hurt or would not work properly, however, im glad I got over that fear. First of all, I love how the disc comes with extra items like feminine wipes and lube and of course, the case. It kind of forces you to get to know your body better as you’re putting it in a certain way and I like how as opposed to tampons, it won’t cause TSS and only have to basically change it out twice in a day. I never felt it and it never leaked. Another plus was the string, which made it easier to pull out. It has definitely made me feel better about my period and somehow made it feel lighter and shorter? I have heard the customer service is also great from this company. So 10/10 experience. It is also great for the environment and cost effective on the long run as you don’t have to spend any more money on menstrual products. Truly such a great innovation, I LOVE IT!! and if you’re scared just as I was, just know that sometimes we have to get out of a comfort zone to get to a better place :)

Needed a size change after ordering. I emailed customer service and Ali quickly responded and sent me a new size free of charge! The new size works perfectly and is so comfortable! I was using a cup which I loved but this is even better and more comfortable! Thank you Ali with customer service for helping me figure out what size I needed and sending it to me for free. Otherwise I probably would have given up on the product due to leaking but with the correct size I’ve had no leaking issues even with a tilted uterus! Works great! If you aren’t sure what size I recommend picking the larger size.

Very nice! Comes in a cute bag with feminine wipes and lube packets to make it easier for insertion if needed. Pretty comfortable and holds a good amount of blood even during heavy flow.

My wife got this and so this review will be based on her opinion and written by her: I got this disc after seeing that it's something new new and different from the menstrual cups. I have been a cup user for about 4-5 yrs and felt that they are not as comfortable and leaks most of the time when on heavier days. After reading the great features of the disc, I was ready to make the switch and honestly, will not be going back to the cups. So with the disc, leaking only happens on the more heavier days (and I do have very heavy flow for the 1st 1-2 days), so I do have to wear a backup pad. I am very satisfied w/the "self-emptying" function on those heavy days. I have to say it really does self-empties every time I use the toilet on those heavy flow days. The other days, the disc doesn't leak at all, I can be rest assured that I can just keep it in there for the max 12 hrs and won't have to worry about it. The other plus about this disc is the comfort of it. After insertion, I don't feel anything anymore and it pretty much stays put the entire time until I take it out. This is a great improvement from cups because I noticed that the cups I used would slide down and cause me discomfort after a while. It's worse when I'm using the toilet. Insertion is also easier than a cup. This disc is amazing compared to the menstrual cups. For one thing it doesn't have the suction function, but instead it rests right on top of the pelvic bone under the cervix, so it pretty much catches the flow if placed correctly. It's a learning process, but pretty similar to inserting the cup. I have no significant issues inserting the disc in, only once in a while I don't always placed it in correctly and it'll be immediately noticeable because the edge will not sit on top of the pelvic bone no matter how I pushed it. One of the minus I have to say is that taking it out is much messier than a cup, but I learned that it's not so bad when using the tail to pull it out slowly, and making sure the disc stays upright. The only thing though is I noticed that the tail started to show signs of wear and tear along the entire tail stem. and I got this disc back in May (which is only about 5-6 months ago). It looks like it can break any day now and I only used the disc during my period which lasts about 6-7 days per month. So I have to say that the tail is too frail because I'm very dependent on it when taking out the disc. On the cups, I never needed the tail, and as a matter of fact, I actually trim it off because they are uncomfortable and keeps sticking out. But I'm totally dependent on the tail on this disc and it's actually very easy to tuck it in after the disc is on top of the pelvic bone. I just wish the tail is made much stronger and more durable. Now I have to be careful not to tug too hard. Overall, I am amazed with this disc. After using it, I'm never going back to the cup.

I’ve been an avid menstrual cup user for years. I like the ease, convenience, and cost effectiveness of it. I heard about the disc and wanted to try instantly. So, I ordered this one and it came in a little kit with wipes, instructions, the disc, etc. After watching videos on how to properly use it, I found myself having the most difficult time. I tried to use this over the course of two periods to try to give it a fair shot, but I think this one is not for me. I can definitely see the appeal of it, but for now, I will be sticking to the cup.

absolutely amazing product and brand!! I love pixies reusable products so much! the medium sized disc is among the best! I have a medium to heavy flow and it works so well for me. it definitely took a few tries to get it in comfortably, but don’t give up!! u can do it! I have an oddly low cervix and it still fits perfectly with no uncomfortable feeling! (I also recommend their reusable pads soooo much) the customer service is also freaking top tier.

I didn't realize it came as a whole little kit, I was so pleasantly suprised! I love that they include the canvas zipper storage case - this is so handy for storage, or for packing when you know Aunt Flo is supposed to come soon. All the little trial size cleaner and sanitizer packets are awesome! It comes with clear, pictorial instructions on how to insert and remove the disc, if this is your first time trying out a disc, and instructions on how to remove the string if you decide you don't like it (along with a sanding board to sand any rough edges it may leave when you remove it). As for the disc itself - This is the 3rd disc I have tried, and the first that can completely handle my heavy day with ZERO leaking! It took me a few seconds to figure out the right angle to get this one in, with the curved edge. Once inserted, it's very comfortable, you don't feel a thing, and I had no problems with the angle after the first insertion. I ordered the large, as I'm on my feet all day, and on my heavier day it's not always convenient to take it out, empty, and rinse, several times during the day. This completely held my heaviest day with no leaking at all. So nice to not be sitting in blood! It does auto-dump when you pee, but I had zero leaking outside of that. By the 3rd day, I felt so confident with it, I tried it without even wearing a panty liner, and got one tiny drop. I think the curved design helps it fit tighter to your body and keeps it from leaking out behind the disc. I did find if I was sitting for awhile, I occasionally had to dash into the bathroom to reposition the silicone string, but you can't feel the disc at all. NOTE: If this is your first disc, I found it took me a cycle or two with my first disc to really get the hang of getting it positioned right so it doesn't leak. If you don't make sure you get it back all the way, it will leak out behind the disc. Also, I just run my disc under warm water before inserting, and this works for me without a lubricant!

I previously got the two pack of shordy disks (small and large/regular) and i quickly realized the larger one was better for my higher cervix.. well one er trip later I realized I probably shouldn’t have gotten too confident and cut the removal stem off :) so for this cycle I decided to invest a little bit more on a good disk (again, with a stem) because I did have a good experience when I found the right size before I cut off the stem and it got stuck 🤣. I ordered the medium size because I truly have a light flow but again, my cervix is a bit high and I have had a baby, but the reviews made the large one look a lot bigger. Unfortunately I think it’s just about the same size as the small shordy (pictured side by side) and I think this is going to have the exact same problem as my last. Update!! No, the medium wasn’t the perfect fit, but Pixie customer service is absolutely wonderful and they are sending me a larger one. I will update next cycle when I try that one out! I will say, I really like the multiple “air” holes around the rim. I felt like my last brand had some sort of suction. Of course this is wonderful peace of mind since the previous accident I made. The stem is also very sturdy so I’m not scared that it would break or anything like that with regular use. This one is much easier to remove. I also really like that the “cup” part is super soft, as the rim is firm and a bit thicker than my last disk. All in all, I do really like the brand. I wish all brands would use the same measurements . Going from disposable menstrual supplies like pads and tampons to something like this, it’s a little hard to understand the measurements of the body parts you can’t see. It’s all trial and error. Pixie definitely makes this process less stressful by providing the best customer care.

I really wanted this product to work for me. Packaging looks pretty nice. I'm using it for the second time and it keeps leaking so much. Not sure what I'm doing. Thinking I might buy a smaller one. Will let you know

Excellent customer service team. They help you choosing the correct product. Talk you through how to fit it and now I can save money on tampons! I did buy a set of period pants too just incase of any leaks, but I highly recommend. There were so many disc companies to chose from and I’m thrilled I made the right choice with choosing pixie.

I really liked this disc, easy to use with no leaks. The disc is well made and made from of a nice smooth/soft material. I love the colour. The stem was a little too long for me but very easy to trim down and helps removal. My only issue was it put pressure on my bladder making it very difficult to wee. I have contacted Pixie Cup and they have offered to send me a smaller size to try, free of charge. They have been easy to contact via email and very friendly. Just waiting on confirmation of the smaller size being issued. Looking forward to trying that.

This is my third disc. I brought two other sizes before this one and would sporadically have issues with leaking or getting it stuck. I’ve had zero issues with this one (finally brought the right size). These are perfect if you are sick of spending dollars on tampons. I’ve also used mine travelling through Africa and backcountry camping and highly recommend it for places where you don’t want to have to pack additional waste out! Highly recommend investing.

This was my first time trying a menstrual disc and I wasn't exactly sure what size to go for and ended up going too small. I reached out to Pixie customer services and they were lovely enough to send me a larger size. For a first time user I do really appreciate that the disc has a stem, I tried the hooking my finger over the rim and it just didn't work so this design is really helpful. The disc itself is quite soft but also feels sturdy and once it's in it is really easy to forget that it's there. The disc comes with a little bag, some feminine wipes and plant based lubricant. It's great for being on the go and is quite inconspicuous. It's really obvious that this whole set was designed with care and thoughtfulness and it's lovely to see.
