I have been using menstrual discs for several years and the Pixie Disc is my favorite! It’s easier to insert, it’s more comfortable, and has the least amount of leakage - I’ve thrown my other discs away.
Learn More About Large Period Disc
Introducing Pixie Discs, the innovative and reusable silicone menstrual discs that provide a safe and secure way to collect fluids during your period. Unlike traditional menstrual cups, Pixie Discs sit comfortably at the base of your cervix, offering a leak-free and odor-free experience.
Designed for easy insertion and removal, the soft disc portion molds to your body while the springy firm rim ensures a seamless fit. With a high capacity equivalent to 3-7 tampons, Pixie Discs can be worn for up to 12 hours, reducing the risk of toxic shock syndrome and minimizing dryness and cramps.
The discs are made from medical-grade silicone without any harmful substances, such as latex, BPA, phthalates, dyes, or chemicals. Plus, Pixie Discs are ideal for those with an IUD, as they have a significantly lower expulsion rate compared to menstrual cups. Say goodbye to period blood stains and enjoy leak-free periods with Pixie Discs.
Experience worry-free period sex and maintain intimacy with Pixie Disc's flat fit design that doesn't block your vaginal canal. Whether you're exercising, sleeping, or engaging in sexual activities, these discs provide leak protection without any mess.

Why to buy Large Period Disc
Friend, the next generation of sustainable menstrual products are here! The Pixie Disc is a reusable menstrual disc that sits at the base of your cervix, not in the vaginal canal like a menstrual cup. The Disc doesn't create a seal, and allows for no-mess period sex. Made with medical-grade silicone, the Pixie Disc lasts up to 10 years - keeping money in your pocket and plastic out of landfills. So why settle for uncomfortable and wasteful period products when you can have a silky smooth, long-lasting, and eco-friendly Pixie Disc?
How to use Large Period Disc
Troubleshooting a stuck disc:
First off, relax. If you’re tense, your vaginal muscles will be tense and will make the process difficult. We love the term ‘Flabby Face, Flabby Fanny’ from @thenakeddula on Instagram. Meaning, if you purposely relax your jaw and face, your pelvic region will respond in a relaxed state as well.
It’s natural to have a learning curve when adjusting to your Pixie Disc.
If you find that you cannot find the pull string or the rim that you tucked behind your pubic bone, try squatting, as this will bring your cervix closer to your reach.
Don't forget!
Pixie Disc comes with a silicone pull string! We totally understand that using a disc might be a new experience for you, and we wanted to make it as stress-free as possible.
You can cut off and remove this string if you find it bothers you, similar to trimming a stem on a menstrual cup. We recommend leaving the string attached until you have mastered removing your Pixie Disc by the rim.
We’re confident that you’re going to absolutely love your Pixie Disc, and we’re so excited you're interested in making a switch to a mess-free, life-changing period! All of our products come with a 100% Happiness Guarantee, which means we are here on the journey with you every step of the way.

The disc is held in place by the pubic bone, right below the cervix, directly and securely collecting your blood. It will rest at a slight diagonal angle inside the body.
- Squeeze the middle to where it looks like a figure 8
- Lubricate the top of the disc
- Sit on the toilet, squat, or hike one leg up (very difficult to insert while standing)
- Ensure your pelvic floor muscles are completely relaxed (if tense at all, it makes insertion much harder). Insert the disc with the tip pointing down towards the ground and gently glide it back as far as it will go.
- Using a finger, tuck the rim behind the pubic bone.

Absolutely! These are ideal for those with a short cervix since they directly hug the cervix. However, you may want to trim the stem off. The stem makes these amazing for those with a high cervix but won’t be necessary for a very low cervix.
This is where the stem design comes in handy! Relax your pelvic floor muscles (this is a MUST), gently pull the stem to lower the disc down to where you can easily reach it, and carefully place a finger under both sides of the rim of the disc to glide it the rest of the way out, then dump the contents into the toilet. (This could take some time to get the hang of it completely.)
Simply cut the stem off, then file the silicone until it’s smooth!

Use a finger to find the rim, then “hook” your finger under the rim and pull down horizontally (sort of like pulling out a drawer). Keep the disc parallel to the floor to avoid emptying before you’re ready.
Yes, the Pixie Disc is self-emptying when using the bathroom because your pelvic floor muscles relax. However, this feature tends to work for some and not for others. It depends on the person.
Absolutely! The stem design makes this much easier since you won’t have to reach the disc cup body to remove it.
Yes, the Pixie Disc can be used with a tilted cervix since it directly hugs it. The insertion process may be harder to master, but you will not regret it once you have it down.
Absolutely! You will want to trim the stem off first.
Yes! The Pixie Disc is eligible for HSA or FSA.
No suction is used to keep the Disc in place. Unlike a menstrual cup which uses suction to seal in your vaginal canal, the Pixie Disc is held in place by your pubic bone.
