This link was referred to me on IRC as a joke - the VIPON is a vibrating tampon. At first, this might seem like a gag gift - in fact it might have been intended as such to begin with. However the testimonials show that many women are reporting less cramping and pain when wearing these tampons.
This does me no good at all - I’m one of those lucky women who gets cramps maybe once per year. I know many of the other Doper women are not so lucky. I thought I would bring this to their attention just in case it might help.
If anyone has tried this, please chip in. What’s your take on it? Scam? Gift from God? let us know!
I swear to god I am in NO WAY affiliated with this company and only post this thread for the greater good of Doper Women’s Health.
I can see how this wold be of benefit. Many women, myself included, find that sex eases cramps. IIRC, it has to do with stimulating the uterus. Not only can this ease cramps, but for some, reduce the length of your period.
As for the actual product… not something I’d use, but hey… there are always people willing to try anything.
Yeah, I can just see me at work, talking on the phone “yeah, baby, yeah, send me those, ooh, proofs by, aaaah, next Wednesday…”
On the other hand, those peel-‘n’-stick heating pads are, as the young people would say, da bomb – why’d they have to wait till I was 47 to invent them? First great invention of the third millennium, for my money.
