diva cup users. what is the best folding technique?!

Question: Diva cup users. what is the best folding technique?

i am new to the diva cup since the last tampon i used, i put in like usual and when i pulled it out it completely fell apart inside of me. like i searched up there and found pieces of string and cotton fluff everywhere. that is so dangerous. if i hadnt of searched i could have gotten toxic shock syndrome. it was weird tho how it just unraveled up there.

ANYWAYS. i am having trouble assuring the diva cup "pops" open.
what is the BEST fold to assure it popping??

and visual help like pictures or videos of how to fold it would be helpful as well.

thanks ladies!! ?

There are a bunch of folds. I prefer the punch down fold.

Practice each fold with your cup and figure out which one works best for you. To make sure my cup pops, I have to play with it inside my vagina.

You kinda have to just stick your fingers up there and feel to make sure that it is open, also if you give it a slight tug it shouldn't come out, then you know that it is sealed, to tug hard obviously, good luck, I'm sure you will get the hang of it in no time :)
