I have only used my Hey Zomi disc for 2 periods and i’m already in love. I got my period when i was 13 and started tampons right away so i’ve had quite the experience with them. I’m now 18 and have been wanting to try something other than tampons but have been quite nervous about it. Zoe and Mika’s helpful information and videos plus the amazing reviews made me finally cave into buying the disc and i don’t regret it one bit!
I have a somewhat heavy flow on my first 2 days (i go through super tampons in 2 hours for context, which to me is decently heavy). And constantly changing tampons put quite a stress on me especially when i had to be out all day. The Hey Zomi disc has completely changed that, i don’t have to worry about where i’m going to put my other tampons if i don’t have a bag on me or whether there’s going to be a bin in the toilet or not. I just pull the disc out morning and night in the shower clean it, reinsert and go about my day. I do auto dump twice throughout the day (i’m still trying to workout how often works for me) but dumping it twice is WAY better than changing a tampon every 2 hours the whole day.
I also bleed even heavier overnight which has always been a pain as i wake up very sore and usually have very interrupted sleep because i’m so uncomfortable wearing a pad. With the disc i can sleep comfortably throughout the whole night no stress, which has to be the biggest game changer for me.
I experience intense lower back pain throughout my entire period which i have noticed been less painful and more subtle when using the disc.
I also go to the gym multiple times a week and lift weights. I was worried that putting too much pressure on my body would dislodge the disc but it didn’t and i have found myself feeling much more confident in the gym wearing the disc compared to tampons.
ALSO with the warmer weather coming up, i’m so excited to not have to put off the beach or say no to a swim because of my period.
I feel so much better about using a period product that is reusable and safer for the environment. I no longer have to go and buy expensive organic products that are probably no better for me or the environment. I just buy one disc every few years for a very cheap price and that’s it! Majorly cutting down my expenses and saving me from the awkward run to the shops when i have no tampons left!
It is not painful to insert or remove. You cannot feel it when it’s in. It’s very easy to get in the right spot with a little practice.
I feel so much more secure, comfortable and confident with the Hey Zomi disc. I wore a white skirt yesterday NO STRESS NO LEAKS. AHHH IM SO HAPPY!!!
I’m finally living my life with my period, i’m not trying to work around it and having it get in the way of certain events.
If your unsure like i was, JUST BUY IT you will not regret it!
I’m just so so so happy with this disc, i absolutely love it. Thank you so much girls!!
