There is so much information out there, where do you start? This is just a very quick blog post to point you in the right direction.
If you are interested in reviews of individual cups then check out Melissa's blog - Melissa is a goldmine of information and has reviewed and photographed most cups on the market. She has also produced You Tube videos and comparison photos, comparing one cup beside another. Melissa's stiffness chart compares how soft each brand is.
Obsi has also reviewed many different cups on her blog - Obsi is also an expert in cloth pads and has a website selling her own cloth pads as well as a lot of information rich websites. Obsi has also compared the squishiness of cups. For a whole load of cloth pad information her website, Ecomenses is the place to go.
LiveJournal is another place where I hang out quite a lot. There are tabs along the right hand side so you can filter the information, depending on what you need to know. If you can't find your answer then you can always post your question on there.
If you speak French then the Easycup forum is another little gem of information. If you are willing to use an online translator or friend then I would recommend having a look at Easycup.
These websites are only the tip of the iceburg as there is so much information out there. Sometimes, it's just knowing where to look.
If you can't find an answer to your question on any of those forums or websites then please contact us and we can suggest other websites. We also have a facebook page and Flickr site which may help.
Happy researching!

ReplyDeleteJust like you said, there are loads of info.. eff simply pointing out one or two more things, maybe.
On LiveJournal that you mentioned, the community faq page is indexing the main *charts* available, in particular = http://menstrual-cups.livejournal.com/tag/faq
And in a note on how to choose a cup, Anna-Maria from EnvironMenstruals gives vast insights, also including a flowchart that's notably based on the cervix length during one's periods = https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=145433432152812
For the *folding techniques*, besides the excellent video by Melissa (or pics from LJ), the JuJu and Lunette channels on Youtube can be checked out, as both teams made one video for every fold.
If you're looking for even more & beautiful *photos*, taken under a special light, and for even more helpful tools, let's profit Afriska's site^ = http://en.afriska.ch/which-one-for-you1.html
If one speaks Finnish, it seems the following site is really complete = www.kuukuppikunta.net/
Cheers! :D
Sorry I rather meant the cervix -height- (low, close to the vagina opening or not.)
