What if I cannot remove The DivaCup?
If you are unable to remove the DivaCup because it has moved up towards the cervix, do not panic. Keep your vaginal muscles relaxed. Squat, with your buttocks resting on your heels (to shorten the vaginal canal). Insert your fingers (similar to removing a diaphragm) and bear down with your stomach muscles until you can reach the cup. Alternatively, gravity should bring the cup back down in several hours. In the rare case that you are still unable to remove the cup after 12 hours, call our customer service line during business hours or seek medical advice.
