Women are always restricted by their menstrual period. No matter how they try to hide their discomfort or try to feel normal, there's this twinge in their actions and their movements are controlled. There are a lot of products that attempt to make a woman's life better whenever she has a period. However, most of them fall short health-wise and in functionality - until the best tampon alternative came around.

Instead Softcup is a great way to stay clean, protected, and dry during your menstrual period. This is the best tampon alternative yet and it is much safer to use than pads. It has higher capacity and can contain twice as much menstrual fluid than regular tampons.

Tampons are always associated to the TSS or the Toxic Shock Syndrome. Instead Softcup gives you the effectiveness of tampons without causing that alarming health concern. Like tampons, Instead Softcup is inserted inside the vaginal area. It may take you some time to get used to it, but you will do so eventually with regular use. The feeling is much like when you first used a pair contact lens.

Like its name indicates, Instead Softcup is a very soft cup-like device that follows the contours of your vagina so fluids won't leak out. You take it out of your body in the same way that you inserted it. What's so good about this product is the fact that doctors recommend it. Instead Softcup has never caused TSS among women in its 10 years of being released in the market.

What's more, you can practically do everything during your period as if it's just any other ordinary day. You can take a dip at the swimming pool, have sex, or go through rigorous exercises. Soft cup can be worn for up to 12 hours, which means you don't have to change liners all the time.

Feel dry, protected, and confident during your menstrual period. Make your menstruation the last thing in your mind. With Instead Softcup, women are finally given the freedom that she always deserved. Indeed, it is the best tampon alternative ever created.

I wanted to share my personal story of pregnancy success as my DH and I are ecstatic and we believe completely that a product called Instead Softcup is responsible for our success. I know how many women are struggling with getting pregnant, and if I can offer any hope or ideas of things to try, I just want to put it out there. We just gave birth to our second child in November, 2008. Back in 2004, DH and I had been spoiled when we conceived on the first try with our now 3 year old DD. When we started trying for #2 last August (07), I think we subconsciously thought - "oh this will be easy." Well, fast forward nearly 6 months and no positive pregnancy test. We are talking ovulation monitoring, EVERYTHING. Granted, I am now 35 and obviously our lives are a bit more stressful with work, having a toddler, etc. But still, it was becoming frustrating, especially feeling that we were doing everything we could do to "time" things right. Also, we knew in our heads that 5 months wasn't THAT long a time to try, but as I mentioned, we were eager, and our past experience made us impatient. We were truly becoming burnt out when a friend of mine mentioned that she was working with a company who had a product that had been getting a reputation on blogs and fertility message boards for helping women to conceive. Of course, having serious baby on the brain and desperate to try anything, I went home and Googled it and low and behold, many, many stories on other blogs from women who had had success conceiving with the help of the Instead Softcup. My friend gave me some samples so we thought, what do we have to lose? The next ovulation period, immediately after BD-ing, (meaning I had it on the nightstand ready and inserted it right away), we used Softcup. We used it twice that month and two weeks later, got the wonderful POSITIVE pregnancy test we have been waiting for! Again, I just wanted to share our success in the hopes that it can help other couples struggling to get that positive test themselves. I was lucky to have a friend turn me on to Softcups, but I have found out that they can be purchased at many drug stores, Wal Mart, and online at www.softcup.com, but I just heard that Target may not be carrying them anymore which is VERY disappointing as I know that they would be of value to SO many women- anyways, they are in the feminine products section, because their intended use is an alternative to tampons (which by the way they are great for too!). Don't be deterred by what they look like (literally like a bendable soft cup), as they are easy to use, VERY comfortable and most importantly SAFE (I have researched and gotten inside info from my friend who has insider knowledge because of the work arrangement). Good luck and happy pregnancy vibes!
