Hi friends- Oh boy, it's been awhile. I am officially on Christmas break and I have a month off school and some free time and I don't know what to do with myself, so here I am blogging. Several months ago I wrote a blog/review about the LENA menstrual cup. I just wanted to write a brief update and some new tips and tricks I have discovered after using it for almost a year. I hope you enjoy and find this blog helpful 😘 (read my LENA menstrual cup review) Cutting off the stem I had mentioned in my first post that I regretted cutting of the stem on my cup because after using it for awhile it was difficult to remove. Well, I recently got a new LENA cup and I kept the stem on. I found the stem to be very irritating to my lady bits. My suggestion is- try the cup with the stem and see how you feel. If it doesn't bother you and it isn't hanging out of you, keep it! (try it for 12 hours and not 12 mins. lol) How long I leave the cup in Gross alert!! The
