When I still had periods, menstrual cups were the only thing that made them even slightly bearable. In my experience, a decent cup will handle a super heavy flow better than anything else. Combine a cup with a reusable cloth pads and I could forget I was on my period for like 3 hours at a time. Compared to the constant, never ending leaking of tampons and the inability of just a pad to deal with how much I bled, cups were a life saver.
So yes, in my experience, menstrual cups are awesome and everyone with a period should at least try one to see if they like it.
