a uterus that is tilted likely won't affect wearing a menstrual cup

[{"selector":"#anim-85a5a471-7d07-4b3c-af56-bf22103cdd77","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-360deg) translate3d(-115.55555%, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)","rotate(-360deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-24aa9a8f-79c8-4705-899e-54c171da9b99","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-eff8c6e9-c237-4e94-86e3-cac21b10b710","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

this is the case no matter which angle you're tilted

[{"selector":"#anim-e994f777-ce64-4e7b-bc73-6306cceb0ead","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-360deg) translate3d(-118.89764%, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)","rotate(-360deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0ff25252-7cf3-4788-8422-f35ab36e0869","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8347875a-c5fb-403c-9669-cad57bfb399f","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

as long as the cup sits below and seals, you're good.

The Danger ⚠️

[{"selector":"#anim-34489178-0e3a-48f5-81e5-552a0b1c1c0f","keyframes":[{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":0},{"transform":"scale(1.5)","offset":0.33},{"transform":"scale(0.95)","offset":0.66},{"transform":"scale(1)","offset":1}],"delay":0,"duration":1450,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}]

just be careful not to insert the cup past your cervix

[{"selector":"#anim-d8cac3ae-bf52-4ff7-a8d1-98a74c6ca3a4","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-360deg) translate3d(-115.48388%, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)","rotate(-360deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7819174e-4f0d-447c-8759-a4a24b85afe4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ce73f800-fd97-4cf9-99a5-b51470a6e681","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

If you do, it will definitely leak.

menstrual discs have to tuck behind the cervix

[{"selector":"#anim-6031a2b7-70b1-42dc-a3c3-aa5cd933ec4d","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-360deg) translate3d(-117.41936%, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)","rotate(-360deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-09001a02-c359-4a1e-8c9a-02ddd9eb9fa8","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-46af3cae-aacf-411b-b8ca-28437818f044","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

if it's close to the back wall it might not be possible to tuck the disc

A cup might be a better option for you instead

[{"selector":"#anim-a9d70839-f2c7-48f8-85ed-ed9e8d701260","keyframes":{"transform":["rotate(-360deg) translate3d(-117.41936%, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)","rotate(-360deg) translate3d(0px, 0px, 0) rotate(360deg)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8e0963f3-0b6f-45be-a08a-7317394b02d1","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c494918e-65dd-4515-92ae-1cc8807c1d1c","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]
