Her vaginal muscles are in pretty good shape and are fairly tight, however she does fit me which is about 7in circumference at times. She would like to know how rigid the silicone Diva Cup would feel in comparison to the Instead rim and also if anyone has had a similar problem with Instead and fixed it with the Diva or Moon.
Her cycles are very heavy, lasting up to a week, and the tampons make her very raw and sore during and a few days after it's done. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch.

Brandye has more info about the types, they are not over abundant here in the US.
It sounds as if the positioning of them is more of an issue for her; she is not getting it to grip in the right positions or she might have ordered the incorrect size. If properly positioned, there should be no issue.
Or she can get the old type of cervical caps which have been used for birth control and menstrual cycles; they still make them. When they are placed properly no moving/dislodging them. Just have to be cleaned more frequently daily.
