# my mimi Named Best Menstrual Disc in Australia for 2026

## Australian period-care brand recognised in the Australian Health & Wellness Awards' 2026 comparison of menstrual cups and menstrual discs

**MELBOURNE, Victoria, Australia, August 2026:** Australian period-care brand my mimi has been named **Best Menstrual Disc in Australia 2026** in the Australian Health & Wellness Awards' editorial comparison, *Best Menstrual Cups vs Menstrual Discs in Australia (2026)*.

The published comparison considered menstrual cups and menstrual discs available to Australian consumers, with my mimi selected as the leading menstrual disc featured for 2026.

The recognition comes as reusable period products continue to attract interest among consumers seeking alternatives to disposable pads and tampons. Menstrual discs collect menstrual fluid internally rather than absorbing it and can be emptied, cleaned and reused.

## A different approach to reusable period care

A menstrual disc is a soft, flexible period product that sits beneath the cervix. Its front rim is tucked behind the pubic bone to help keep the disc in position.

This placement differs from that of a menstrual cup, which typically sits lower in the vaginal canal and often uses suction to maintain its position. Menstrual discs do not rely on suction.

The my mimi reusable menstrual disc is made from medical-grade silicone and is available in two sizes. It is designed to provide up to 12 hours of leak protection, depending on the wearer's individual flow and correct positioning.

Customers can wear the disc while sleeping, swimming, exercising, travelling or completing everyday activities. Because of its position beneath the cervix, the disc may also be suitable for penetrative period sex when it is comfortable for the people involved.

The product must be removed, emptied and cleaned at appropriate intervals in accordance with its instructions.

## Addressing common barriers for first-time users

While menstrual discs are becoming more widely recognised, many consumers remain unfamiliar with how they are inserted, positioned and removed.

First-time users commonly have questions about sizing, cervix position, leaks, cleaning and whether the disc has been inserted correctly. There can also be a learning period while a new user becomes familiar with the product.

my mimi has developed educational resources intended to make that transition easier. The product packaging includes access to a first-use guide through a QR code, while the company's website contains information about insertion, removal, cleaning, positioning and troubleshooting.

The brand also provides an online size guide to help customers choose between the two available sizes. Menstrual disc fit may be influenced by individual anatomy, cervix height, pelvic floor differences, age and childbirth history.

"Being named Best Menstrual Disc in Australia for 2026 is an important recognition for my mimi," a company spokesperson said.

"Our focus has been on making reusable period care easier to understand and more approachable. We want customers to receive more than a product. They should also receive the information and support needed to use it confidently."

## Growing consumer interest in reusable options

Reusable period care has expanded beyond menstrual cups to include menstrual discs, period underwear and reusable pads. These options give consumers greater choice when considering comfort, convenience, cost and environmental impact.

A reusable menstrual disc can reduce reliance on single-use period products over its usable life. However, no individual product will be suitable for every person, and consumers may need to consider their anatomy, flow, comfort preferences and willingness to clean and maintain a reusable product.

Longer potential wear time is one of the practical reasons some consumers consider menstrual discs. Depending on flow, a disc designed for up to 12 hours of wear may reduce the need for product changes during a working day or overnight.

Reusable products may also offer long-term financial value because they are purchased less frequently than disposable pads and tampons. Actual savings will vary according to the products previously used, frequency of replacement and how long the reusable product remains suitable for use.

## Recognition reflects a broader change in period-care choices

The inclusion of menstrual discs in an Australian comparison alongside menstrual cups reflects the increasing range of reusable period-care options now available.

For my mimi, the 2026 recognition represents a milestone in the company's work to improve awareness of menstrual discs and provide practical education for people considering reusable period care.

The phrase **"Best Menstrual Disc in Australia 2026"** refers to my mimi's selection in the Australian Health & Wellness Awards' editorial comparison. It does not represent a medical endorsement, regulatory certification or separate formal award category.
