Peach life brand menstrual cups have a ring at the end that you can put your finger through and pull. I don't understand the other brands that give us that textured post.. how the hell are you supposed to grab that?

I take mine out in the shower, I put one leg on the edge of the tub, and go for it.

I also wear period panties if I'm out and about with my cup, in case something shifts and it leaks.

Thank you! The seal was too strong to release, so maybe a smaller one would work?

I've tried a whole range of them myself.. started off super small, but ended up with a medium sized one. I think my preference mainly comes down to finding the right fit for me. As far as firmness, I started off with ones that were described as being more "soft" but what I found, is that they have trouble snapping back, after I put them in.. so I use an extra firm one now.. seems to snap back quickly, so I'm not fussing about with the fit.
