I use a Moon Cup during AF (so much better than pads or tampons, you just wouldn't believe til you have tried it!), and was thinking that maybe it would help after BD-ing if you put it in, none of the semen would fall out.
Just wondering if anyone else has tried this |

Its not unheard of, theres a cup called the 'instead' cup thats inserted straight after BDing to stop it all from leaking out... I imagine its more or less the same as a mooncup but sits closer to the cervix? ------------- Brandon - 05/12/2003

Interesting idea! Although, if your fertile, wouldnt your cervix be open so the spermies can swim up?? I noticed when I was fertile I didnt have any where near as much leakage as I did when I wasnt fertile... Anything is worth a shot though! IMO anyway  -------------

| If you go to the instead cup website and email them and ask for a sample they will send you them from the USA for free (i got sent 2)! i was going to use them however in the end i didnt. |
