Like insertion, start with clean hands!

Sit down (usually over a toilet), to shorten the vaginal canal. Pro tip: you can also squat in the shower, which is especially helpful if you have any difficulty reaching the disc.

Simply reach with your finger and hook the removal band (almost like you are motioning "come here" with your finger) and use it to slowly pull the disc downward and forward towards the vaginal opening. As it is removed the contents will dump into the toilet or go down the drain if you are in a shower. You can also switch to holding the sides with your index and thumb when it's half way in, half way out. This makes for more controlled emptying.

Once you've emptied into the toilet or down the drain, you can clean your disc and reinsert! Or sterilize and store :) Be sure when cleaning your disc throughout your period to use a cup wash at least once each day. This will help build up from forming. Be sure to get in all the nooks and crannies! Especially around the removal band!

Removal tends to be easier as it's less technical than insertion, however, if you have any difficulties, feel free to reach out for further support!
