I confess the first time I heard about the DivaCup from a co-worker, I was dubious and a little uncomfortable. I was curious about this feminine hygiene product I had never heard of, one that touted no leaks, longer wear time and lifespan at a lower cost. Still, I couldn’t wrap my head around the concept. I used tampons for many years and an internal hygiene device did not bother me, but the idea of menstrual fluid collected in a cup I would have to empty, wash, and reinsert was far from appealing.
