I don't know, I just imagine myself handling it the wrong way and blood splashing everywhere. That would be my luck lol
That would be a hilarious story to tell though.

But seriously, the benefits are many*:
1) You just buy it once, and never again. No more monthly shopping for pads and tampons. In the long run, you'll save hundreds (thousands?) of dollars/pounds/euros/whatevers.
2) Depending on how heavy your bleed is, it can stay in for up to 12 hours before you need to empty it. (Yes, that means a comfortable, safe night's sleep without having to worry about blood spill on your sheets, yey!)
3) No more waste = happier environment.
I was a skeptic for years until I decided to try last fall. Did not regret it. (And hey, they're not even that expensive, so if it turns out it doesn't work for you, it won't be a huge loss.)
