sex during my period
| Sun, 02-05-2006 - 12:34pm |
Hi everyone:
I am in a long distance relationship and my boyfriend and I see each other about one week out of every 2 months. The next time I get to see him, in about 4 weeks, I will most likely be on my period the entire time. I told him about this, and we discussed it and decided we were okay with having sex while I was on my period. I was just wondering if anyone who had done this has any tips? I don't really want to do it if I am pretty heavy, maybe just on lighter days? I mean does this get pretty messy? Any tips or advice would be great, thanks!

Some people don't mind "messy". Others do. There's a product called "Instead" which is a cup of some sort that will hold the discharge temporarily. I've never used it, but you can check your drugstore or pharmacy for it and see what the directions say. You can also check out the website online.
If this is a regular thing, you might also want to check out getting on b/c pills. Then you can "skip" your period at times like this.
My only advice would be to throw down and old beach towel or blanket and plan to shower afterward.
HTH!
I second the motion on the Instead cup. It fits in like a diaphragm. Although I first bought it to have sex on my period, it is so comfortable that I have started using it instead of tampons. The only downside to it is the messiness of removing it however I don't mind reaching up into my vagina and removing it. I do it over the toilet so the blood flows into the toilet. Sex during your period helps relieve the cramping that comes with one's period. This cup is wonderful for enabling sex without creating a mess. I recommend it!

We have sex when I have my period whether it's a heavy day or not, if we're in the mood, we do it.
