How can I stop from getting stuck? Hiya! I got my first menstrual cup recently and was super excited for my period to be able to try it! I put it in for a few hours, no problems and it felt very comfortable...
That is, until it was time to remove it.

I propped a leg up on the toilet, was pinching the bottom with all my might and even resorted to attempting to use a spoon to break the seal. After a few deep feels (very much not comfortable), I could feel thst my cervix, which is normally fairly low, was inside the cup and there was no way for me to break the seal.

I gave up and called my girlfriend down who had to lay me down and force two fingers in to break the seal and pull, which resulted in a lot of pained yells from me and a brief panic that I may have to go to hospital.

I'm determined to keep using it, but how can I stop this from happening!? Am I just not right for menstrual cups?
