How it Works

The OVI Disc sits below the cervix and tucks behind the pubic bone for up to 8–12 hours of leak-resistant wear, without suction.

How it Works

The OVI Disc is a soft, reusable menstrual disc that sits comfortably in the vaginal fornix, just below the cervix and higher than a menstrual cup. It collects rather than absorbs your flow and tucks securely behind the pubic bone without suction, giving you up to 8–12 hours of leak-resistant wear. Sleep, swim, lift and get on with your day with fewer changes and less period admin.

Before your first use, sterilise your OVI Disc

Just a few simple steps before your first use

01

Wash your OVI Disc thoroughly with warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap

02

Place your OVI Disc inside a clean metal whisk/ keep stirring, then lower it into a pot of boiling water. The water should fully cover the disc

03

Boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Keep an eye on the water level and do not leave the pot unattended

04

Carefully remove the disc with tongs and pat it dry with a clean towel or paper towel

05

Once completely dry, store it in the breathable silicone case provided, or leave it in a clean, dry, shaded place until you are ready to use it

STEP BY STEP - INSERTING THE DISC (5 STEPS)

01

Clean your hands thoroughly with soap and water

02

Rinse your OVI Disc with mild, unscented soap and water

03

Pinch the disc in half so the rim makes a slim oval. Think of it like flattening it down to glide in easier.

04

Slide the disc in at a slight downward angle, like a tampon, with the finger notch facing outwards.

05

Push the front rim up behind the pubic bone until it feels snug. You shouldn’t be able to feel it once it’s in place.

STEP BY STEP - REMOVING THE DISC (4 STEPS)

01

Start with clean hands and a relaxed body

02

Insert a finger and hook under the front rim (where the notch faces outwards)

03

Gently pull the disc out with finger, keeping it upright to avoid spills

04

Empty in toilet or shower, rinse cold then warm, or boil 5 mins at cycle end

FIRST TIMER TIPS

GIVE YOURSELF A FEW TRIES

Toggle

Using a menstrual disc is a new skill, and it can take a couple of cycles to feel completely natural. A little practice is normal, so don’t worry if it doesn’t click immediately.

THE TUCK MATTERS

Toggle

Once the disc is inserted, push the front rim up and behind your pubic bone. If it isn’t properly tucked, it may shift or leak.

PRACTISE IN THE SHOWER

Toggle

Try inserting and removing your OVI Disc in the shower the first few times. The warm water can help you relax, and any clean-up is easy.

KEEP IT LEVEL

Toggle

During removal, slowly slide the disc out while keeping it as horizontal as possible. This helps keep your flow inside the basin instead of on your hands or the floor.

START WITH CLEAN HANDS

Toggle

Wash and thoroughly dry your hands before inserting or removing your disc. Dry fingers can also make it easier to grip the silicone.

A LITTLE LUBRICANT CAN HELP

Toggle

If insertion feels uncomfortable, add a small amount of water-based lubricant to the rim. A little goes a long way, so keep the sides dry enough to grip.

FIND A POSITION THAT WORKS

Toggle

Try sitting on the toilet, squatting or placing one leg up. Every body is different, so use whichever position gives you the easiest reach.
