femdisc single used disc 10-Pack

When you pinch the disc in the middle to insert it, it’s about the same width as a tampon. It sits comfortably in the vaginal fornix at the end of the vaginal canal, just below the cervix, collecting menstrual flow.

The best way to determine your size is by measuring the height of your cervix:

• For a low cervix, we recommend the femdisc small.
• For an average to high cervix, the femdisc regular is likely the better fit.

How to Measure Your Cervix Height

You can feel your cervix by inserting a clean finger into your vaginal opening. The cervix is at the end of the vaginal canal and feels like a small, smooth circle (similar to pursed lips).

If you have a higher cervix, squatting can make it easier to reach. If you reach the end of your vaginal canal and can’t go further, you’ve found your cervix.

• If your cervix is more than 5.5 cm high or hard to reach, you likely have a high cervix.
• During your period, the cervix sits lower but moves higher during fertile days.

Still Unsure?

Try both sizes to find your perfect fit or if your cervix height changes during your cycle. With femdisc, you’re sure to find a comfortable and secure solution!

What is Hands-Free Emptying?
Also known as "self-emptying" or "automatic emptying," this happens when your pelvic floor muscles contract and temporarily shift the disc, allowing excess blood to flow into the toilet.

How Do I Perform Hands-Free Emptying?

For some, self-emptying happens every time they use the bathroom. For others, it only occurs on heavier days—or not at all. If it does happen, it’s a unique benefit of using menstrual discs.

Here’s how it works:
When your pelvic floor muscles press downward, they can cause the rim of the disc to momentarily shift. This lets excess blood flow into the toilet due to the angle of the disc. Properly inserted, the disc rests in the vaginal fornix and stays in place by hooking behind the pubic bone. Since every body is different, the experience may vary. If you can self-empty, it’s a bonus feature of the disc!

To self-empty, push downward with your pelvic muscles while on the toilet. Wondering what "push downward" means? It’s the same motion you use with those muscles when trying to have a bowel movement. This action shifts the disc slightly and allows fluid to flow into the toilet.

How Do I Prevent Hands-Free Emptying During Activities Like Sneezing or Laughter?

Great question! When properly inserted and secured behind the pubic bone, the femdisc won’t leak. Self-emptying occurs only when your pelvic muscles move specifically to empty your bladder, as these are isolated muscles activated during bathroom use. Activities like squatting, exercising, coughing, or laughing don’t engage these muscles, so your femdisc will stay in place.

If you have a heavier flow day or are concerned about leaks, we recommend emptying the disc before engaging in physical activity. For extra peace of mind, you can wear period underwear or a panty liner as a backup.

How Do I Reposition the Disc After Self-Emptying?

After some fluid has emptied, many users find the disc naturally returns to position as they stand up or perform 1–2 Kegel exercises. Kegels activate the muscles that push the disc back into place.

If you’re new to self-emptying or want extra assurance, you can insert a clean finger to check and manually adjust the disc into position.
