Wendi,

I have had similar issues. However, like you, I have about 2 days of really heavy flow and I've resigned myself to the fact that there will be some leakage, b/c it is so heavy, the cup is still not, "big" enough to really do the job, but it is still better than a tampon or pad by itself. I have a tilted uterus and sometimes wonder if that has anything to do with difficulty finding a menstrual cup that works really well for me. FWIW, I've been using menstrual cups for 12 yrs, while they have not been perfect, they are better than the situation I was in when I had to use tampons and pads. Right now I am using a lena cup, b/c it is larger, which I like, but I also think it is more uncomfortable and more noticeable. I always have to cut off the stems, they are irritating.
