Hands-Free Emptying

Flex Discs can hold up to 12 hours of period blood, however, on heavier flow days you may need to change it before the 12-hour mark.

A way to get around this and wear the disc for the full 12 hours is a trick some folks call the "push method"

When your disc starts to become full, you can push down on your pelvic floor (almost like you're pooping) while using the restroom and a good majority of your period blood will empty into the toilet without dislodging the disc. Once done, just be sure to push the disc back in place with a clean finger or by doing a kegel-like exercise to "pull" the disc back in place.
