Yes - they were made of a tiny squares of super-absorbent sponge material -

I just LOVED those! They NEVER leaked, no matter what. They were just

great, and I'm still mourning their passing..... Did anyone else ever cut

one open to see what sort of amazing stuff was inside? I can still remember

the little white squares I found when I opened one up, and wondering whether

or not it was those tiny things that made Rely so reliable

Donna,

So no skill-testing questions-does this mean that you do not know how many

gynocologists it takes to

say " hysterectomy " ?

I have no problem to look,what the name again?

I used them when I lived in China and they were not available in Canada so I

Poise.I've also tried Depends,however,they make this swishing sound when I walk

and I think that I draw attention to myself.

Patty,

Yeah,and I remember that the directions said something like " do not become

discouraged if your first

attempts at insertion do not work.Keep trying and you will get to know your

body "

My body had no idea what the hell this thing was.But naively I continued my

work.There got it.Two

minutes later it was sliding out again.This went on for quite a while.In,slip

out,in slip out.Stupid

thing.

mentrual cups, somone sent me the URL just a couple of weeks ago for two

manufacturers, I took one look and though that would never work

oh yeah I remember that thing. I flunked origami making and so this was

a sort of rubber origami thing that you made smaller and it popped out

inside in all it's efficient splendor. I think it was a spare automobile

part that they decided to market because they had too many of them. I

threw mine away also. gg

I'm surprised no-one so far mentioned " Instead " sounds like a contraceptive

diaphragm.

A diaphragm will hold on to a fair bit of menstrual blood before the blood leaks

out around the edges, but I hardly think it would so for someone with flooding.

I think wearing a cidphragm " cap " during menstruation makes you feel sort of

full, engorged. And it is so messy when you remove it; how was that problem

handled with " Instead " , all the collected fluid pouring out of the cup when you

remove it?

Bonnie,

Sorry, I'm not as smart as is with words.

I think Kotex made it and I bought them around 1996. I don't think

they sell those disposable underwear for women anymore. I think

Depend took its place. - which makes Depend also owns

Kotex. The colour (Canadian spelling) was pink. The top half of

Depend looks like it. It has elastics sown all around it and it is

bunched up.

I don't need them anymore, so don't look for them for my sake. I

think if they sell them, we should be able to find them on the

internet.

[Guest guest]

Can't stop laughing at all the Two Questions posts, here is my two

cents:

I tried the " Instead " thing -- it is a " one size fits all " which is

usually bogus -- it was like wearing a too big diaphragm, I always

knew it was there. Getting it out was a big mess too, I almost needed

a nail brush after that operation. And yes, it looked suspiciously

similar to an automobile carbuerator part.

I also recall " Rely " tampons and vaguely recall something about the

little sponges causing microscopic scratches on the vagina lining

which contributed to the toxic shock problem associated with them. I

don't know how true this is, but it is what I remember.

And pontoons is a good one, although I refer to tampons as " guided

missiles " myself.
