Does this cup apply pressure on the bladder as to restrict urine? .... Does it work well for exercise? .... How does it stay put when going #2?

I really like the Cora cup. I don't think it applies any pressure. Now if I don't have it in just right, I feel pressure after awhile, but it isn't anything like restricting. Works amazing for exercise, and for #2 PERFECT! If you have to strain, I always take it out and put back in, just because I'm a worry freak like that. Happy with the Cora Cup!

How is this self emptying compared to a cup?

Cups do not "self empty" because they require suction to stay in place and sit lower in the vaginal canal. To empty the cup, you must release the suction and take the cup out of your vagina. This can be inconvenient at times-- especially in a public restroom, or in places where you don't have access to a sink to clean/rinse your cup (camping, for example). Discs can empty without being fully removed-- we call this "self emptying." Self emptying occurs when you are using the toilet and relax your pelvic floor muscles, (similar to when having a bowel movement). This will allow menstrual blood to empty into the toilet without removing the disc. To ensure your disc is properly back in place, use a clean finger to tuck it back behind your pubic bone. Note that self emptying takes some practice! Once you're comfortable with using the disc, you can experiment with self emptying and see what works best for you.

does cup dry you out? First use Im dry aside from light flow.

Hi there, great question! The disc does not dry you out like a tampon might since a cup collects, rather than absorbs, fluid. If you have having trouble inserting the disc, you can use a water-based lubricant. Hope this helps!

Does this come safety sealed?

No, Cora disc is NOT tamper proof. I got one that included a hand written note saying “I’ve already been in a vagina”. I would have had no way of knowing that it had been used and returned if that person hadn’t left a note.
