vaginapagina | NuvaRing & Diva Cup? (Reply)

Ok... I found this, which I already knew about the NuvaRing and silicone...

"We recommend using water-based, glycerin-free lubricants with the NuvaRing. Silicone lubricants are not recommended, since they could coat the ring and prevent the hormones from releasing properly."

My question is, can the Diva Cup fall under the same silicone category? Will it affect the ring? I know that if a silicone toy and silicone lube are used together, you're basically looking for trouble. So can you use the NuvaRing (which I belive is silicone) and the Diva Cup (which is silicone) together? I'm really debating as to whether or not to get one. This is a key factor in my decision.

Also, to the girls that wear both the Nuva Ring and a Diva (if it's possible)...is it comfortable? Can you feel the ring or the Diva Cup? When you pull out your Diva, will the ring pop out too? Please share some experiences with me! I'm really looking into it.

Thanks!
