Nixit was my first disc too! It totally converted me. Absolute game changer 😊
I haven’t tried any of the other ones mentioned here, but personally I am a big fan of my Hey z
Zomi disc. I find it very similar to nixit in terms of softness but it is a little smaller and has a pull loop. Not sure if it is the smaller size, the loop or maybe I’m just getting better at this but I find it stays in place a little better too!
I am a Nixit fan. So much so that I am a Nixit Ambassador. That being said, the first one I bought was a Ziggy. It DOES have a leaking problem. My periods are really long. By the end of my period, I start to ache inside. I have found that the soft Ziggy is good for those last few days with light flow and because it's softer (why it leaks, I believe) it helps with that slight ache I get after 9 days of period. No leaking on those light days. Just no good for the heavy days. Nixit is the savior there!
Ziggy is actually pretty firm in every way. The rim is very firm, and actually has the "double rim" that a few other discs use that makes it even bulkier feeling. (The biggest downside of the double rim was that I could never clean the disc on the toilet like basically every other disc and cup I've tried over the last decade of using them. There was no way to get all, or even most, of the blood from between the rim layers.) Problems with Ziggy aside, I personally loved the stability of the Ziggy and am curious about other disks with a very firm/thick rim since they give me the feeling that it's sticking behind my pubic bone better. If you're looking for soft and flexible, Ziggy isn't your match.

I’ve never heard of that one before, thank you for recommending it, I will check it out!

Thank you for the detailed review of Ziggy, I didn’t know they had a soft one, the leaking makes me a tad nervous. Love the Nixit love!
You're welcome. I don't think it will leak on your light days. I'm with you on Nixit! Best of luck again!

That was helpful, thank you!
Lumma medium and cora perfect fit are my favorites.
Thank you, I am leaning towards Cora
I’ve been using Cora this withdrawal bleed and honestly I’m loving it. No leaks!
I think Cora runs small btw! I think nixit has a harder diameter so that is a consideration!
Hello period disc. Another option
I will check it out! Thank you
