The Flex Company

What's in the box: Orders typically include menstrual discs or a cup, sometimes bundled with a cleanser, a removal pouch or wellness supplements.

The Flex Company sells menstrual discs and cups as an alternative to tampons. It also sells a small range of add-ons, including a foaming cleanser, a removal pouch and wellness supplements such as a PMS gummy. Its main product is the Flex Reusable Disc. It is made from medical-grade silicone and is marketed for up to 12 hours of wear, with a stated capacity of more than six super tampons. The company also sells Flex Disc, its disposable disc line, and bundles for day and night use or travel. A quiz on the site helps new users choose a product. Discs sit higher in the body than tampons, and Flex promotes wearing them during sex. Using a disc takes some practice, and the site has how-to guides for each product. The homepage reads more like a regular online store than a subscription box. It shows one-off purchases and bundles and does not explain recurring delivery terms. If you want automatic refills, check the product pages or ask support before you order. Reusable products cost less over time and create less waste, but they also give you less reason to subscribe. Flex is an established brand with phone and email support, and a store locator shows it is also sold in physical shops.
