Cups take some getting used to. The learning curve is real, insertion and removal can feel awkward the first few cycles, and you'll likely have a messy moment or two while you find your angle. You need access to a sink to rinse between uses, which makes public restrooms tricky, and you'll want to sanitize the cup in boiling water between cycles. Fit matters too, the wrong size or shape can cause leaks or pressure, and some people find cups uncomfortable with an IUD or a low cervix. They're also a bigger upfront cost, though they last for years. If any of that sounds like a hassle, organic cotton tampons or pads might be a simpler fit for you.
