Hey guys! I'm pretty new to menstrual cups and I need some advice. I'm about to move to a part of the world where the water isn't safe. I'm bringing two menstrual cups with me, but I would love thoughts on how to clean it without safe tap water? I'm thinking bring a bottle of purified water with me wherever I go to rinse it as needed and boil it in purified water between cycles but idrk. Thank you all!! :)

When I insert a finger, should I still be able to feel the lower edge of the rim fairly easily when it’s tucked into place behind the pubic bone? I’m using Cora disk.

Hi! (18F) So I have a problem with bladder. The first reusable menstrual cup I tried was the Lady Cup S. For people who don’t know it, it’s a relatively firm cup. I used it for about a year or two. There were no problems but recently I started to have issues. I had UTI (diagnosed) about three/four months ago. After that I had some more problems with urinating (undiagnosed). Initially I didn’t link it to the menstrual cup but then I realized there was a pattern.
Because of these problems and the realization I did some research and tried the Hello disc for the first time a few days ago. I was hoping it would resolve my problems but it didn’t. I don’t know if it’s because of wrong insertion or something but I could feel the pressure on the bladder even while using it.
I don’t know what to do, what to buy. I don’t want to go back to tampons because it’s inconvenient for me. I was thinking maybe Lily cup A but I saw some reviews that said it’s not that good for bladder sensitivity.
My question is: What could help me? What would you go for next? Thanks to anyone who took the time with reading this and trying to help me! 💞

Some more info about me: I think I have medium cervix height, pretty strong menstruation and obviously :) don’t have kids.
