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.  Big Grin

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.) 

*I do not receive any money for writing this recommendation.

I'll have to try it. Hopefully my flow isn't too heavy for it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
