How to insert and remove
Support that goes both ways, for insemination and menstruation.
If you've never tried a menstrual disc, here's the short version of why people switch and don't look back. A disc sits differently to a cup or a tampon, lower and flatter, tucked at the base of the cervix rather than gripping the vaginal walls. That means no string, nothing you can feel once it's in, up to 12 hours of wear, and for a lot of people, far less leaking and cramping than they're used to.
Meet our disposable soft discs. They're soft, flexible and genuinely comfortable, holding up to around 30ml of flow so you can get through a workday, a long sleep or a swim without thinking about it. They're the easiest way to try the disc life, no cleaning, no commitment, just unwrap a fresh one when you need it. Fourteen come in a pack, enough to carry you through a cycle or two.
And because we're a fertility brand at heart, these discs do one more thing a normal period disc doesn't advertise. Worn after insemination or intercourse, they sit below the cervix and hold sperm close, giving it more time near the cervix where it counts. It's the same simple design, working for you at both ends of your cycle.
If you find you love the disc life and want to go reusable, our Origin reusable conception disc does the same job, washable and made to last. But if you want to start simple, this is exactly where to begin.
- A soft, mess-free menstrual disc you can wear for up to 12 hours
- Holds up to around 30ml of flow, with no string and nothing to feel
- Doubles as post-insemination support, 14 individually wrapped discs per pack
About disposable softdiscs
What is a menstrual disc?
It's a soft, flexible disc worn internally during your period. Unlike a cup, which grips the vaginal walls, a disc sits lower and flatter at the base of the cervix, where it collects flow. There's no string and nothing to feel once it's in, and many people find it more comfortable and less leak-prone than pads, tampons or cups.
How long can I wear one?
Up to 12 hours. After that, remove it, dispose of it and insert a fresh one. The 30ml capacity means you can usually go much longer between changes than you would with a tampon.
Can a menstrual disc prevent pregnancy?
No. These discs are not contraception and shouldn't be relied on to prevent pregnancy. They're designed to collect menstrual flow and, in a TTC context, to hold a sample close to the cervix, which is the opposite goal. If you need contraception, speak to your doctor or pharmacist about an appropriate method.
How do they help after insemination?
Worn after syringe insemination or timed intercourse, a disc sits below the cervix and forms a soft seal, keeping the sample close rather than letting it escape when you stand up. That gives sperm more time near the cervix in the hours that matter most.
Can I use a disc with an IUD?
Generally yes, discs and IUDs are designed to coexist. As with any disc or cup, if you have an IUD and any concerns, it's worth a quick check with your provider before you start.
What's the difference between these and the Origin disc?
These are disposable, so you use a fresh one each time and bin it after, which makes them a great low-commitment way to try discs. Origin is the reusable version, washable and made to last across many cycles. Same idea, different lifespan.
Are they comfortable if I have a high or low cervix?
Most people find a disc comfortable across a range of cervix heights, since it sits at the base of the cervix rather than needing a precise fit. If you've found cups tricky because of a low cervix, many people find discs easier to live with.
