What is the Diva Cup?
Launched worldwide in 2003, the DivaCup is one of the most popular menstrual cups on the market. While this is a popular and very reputable brand, it is also one of the longer menstrual cups and may not be suitable for women who have a mid to low cervix.
DivaCup™ Features:
- Made from the highest quality medical grade silicone which ensures both your comfort and the long term durability of the cup
- The DivaCup is hypo-allergenic and free from latex, plastic, PVC, acrylic, acrylate, BPA, phthalate, elastomer, and polyethylene.
- The DivaCup has extra grip ridges around the base to assist with the removal
- Hollow stem
- Can be worn for up to 8 hours
- Available in 3 sizes: Model 0 (for teens), Model 1, and Model 2
- Comes with a storage bag and detailed usage instructions
- Has FDA registration and is listed in the ARTG (ID: 173694)
- Manufactured in Canada
Until the effects of colours and dyes on the body are better understood, DivaCup has decided to err on the side of caution and only manufacture a clear cup.
As with all menstrual cups, if you have any gynecological or medical concerns or conditions, please consult with your medical practitioner prior to using a menstrual cup. Use the Diva Cup according to its directions. Discontinue use and talk to your doctor if you experience any adverse effects.

I have only used my cup once, but have had absolutely no issues, was easy to insert and remove and makes me feel good knowing i am not adding to the waste in the world with tampons/pads.

Easy to use, easy to clean. Much better than tampons it pads- less mess and waste!

Softer lip compared to others which helps me remove it comfortably. Great fit, I’ve cut the stem down and am confident and comfortable with this cup. Second cycle down and it’s working well.

The initial outlay is expected however it’s worth it in the long run BUT it makes it harder if you want 2 of them. Maybe a buy a 2nd one at at cheaper price

I have only used my cup for one cycle so far but I really like it. It gets easier to use each time. I had a messy situation one day when my cup runneth over but I now know how much it holds and when I need to empty it. I also like that I am doing a little something for the environment. I would definitely recommend it.

It takes a bit of getting use to

It definitely works. A little bit awkward to use at first but I paired it with period undies so I didn’t worry. Couldn’t feel a thing when it was in properly and the instructions were very helpful.

The stem was not long enough and I had a lot of trouble removing it! I bought one with a longer stem and have had no issues since.
Everything else is perfect, much better than tampons!

Very happy with the diva cup, it gives me piece of mind and allows me to do any activities at anytime. I do a LOT of camping and my work is outdoor focussed, often without proper toilet facilities or running water. I find using the diva cup great, and a lot easier to manage then throw out alternatives. The 12 hour use time is very convenient. Cleaning of the cup while outdoors is easy with drinking water. It is easy to insert and remove on lower flows or on days your expecting. Highly recommend!

I didn’t know that the Diva cup was the largest of menstrual cups commercially available, before purchasing it. I’m currently having difficulty with it as it keeps slipping out. This makes it extremely hard to be active with it in. I have to make frequent bathroom trips to push it back up. I would not recommend to people who are wishing to try a menstrual cup for the first time or to people who have a low cervix.

I went by cup recommendations and it was inaccurate. Even though I had 2 c sections the cup suggested to me was too big. And I wish they did a price cut for ordering another cup in a different size cause it’s not like I could return it .

Hi Sarah, Thank you for submitting your review and we are sorry to hear the Diva Cup was not suitable. The sizing guidelines that we display as a retailer are in accordance with those given to us by the distributors/manufacturers, but we realise there can be times that they are not always spot on for every woman. We would love to know if you have managed to find a cup that is a better fit? or if there is anything we can do to help you find a suitable alternative to the Diva? Please let us know if we can help.

Amazing, never looked back. First time using it I was a little unsure, but it has never let me down or caused any discomfort. In fact I’d say it causes less pain than using tampons as it doesn’t have the ‘drawing’ effect. I have an IUD and fund my periods to be fairly heavy and painful so this was a really great option. Other great aspects:
– No longer needing to find a bathroom with a bin or sneak products to the loo when you’re out or at work
– Never needing to dash out to buy emergency supplies
– Never having to spend money on disposable products again
– Zero waste created which is a really noble thing

Simply the best decision I made switching to the Diva cup! Only took 2 cycles to get used to it. Don’t even notice it when I’m wearing it, plus it can stay in for up to 12hrs. So handy when out and about or at work. It’s never leaked and can go swimming without any worries. Already saved the money I would have spent buying other sanitary products

I was dubious… but am completely converted. I’m going travelling overseas and won’t have to worry about having my period. Result!
