Accepting pleasure during menstruation<\/strong> is still taboo. We experience a lot during menstruation and we think our partner may be disgusted with the idea of sex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to note that it does not look at all like a Hannibal scene or the Elizabeth Bathory bath<\/a>. During menstruation, we produce 2 to 3 tablespoons of blood, which is an average of 35 ml. Yes, sex is messy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Menstrual blood<\/strong>, which is totally healthy, can be perceived as an extra lubricant<\/strong> during lovemaking. Orgasms can relieve cramps<\/strong> by releasing the uterus, ultimately resulting in a shorter period. The climax increases blood flow and releases endorphins<\/strong> that make us feel good. The dopamine that is released during orgasm also relieves the pain<\/strong> and helps to ease the \u201cheavy\u201d feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me, making love during menstruation means a deeper connection<\/strong> with my partner, it feels<\/strong> more grounded and primal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips for period sex<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Communication is essential.<\/strong> Let your partner know you have a period and tell him how you feel about making love.<\/strong> Ask him how he feels. If an unpleasant feeling is mentioned, what is the reason? Let him know where you want him to touch you<\/strong> or which areas are better to avoid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Make sure you remove menstrual cup or tampoon<\/strong> before sex. These block the vaginal passage and it can be dangerous if misused or left in the vagina for too long.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Design a dark-colored or black towel<\/strong> especially for this purpose and simply put it under yourself and your partner. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Try sex in the shower. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. You don’t need to have just vaginal sex, you can try oral sex, you can include fingers, massage<\/strong>, or take the opportunity to explore anal sex.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Keep wet washcloth<\/strong>\/napkins on hand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Find comfortable positions. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Use condom. It protects you from pregnancy and STIs. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    If you’re not into the idea of having sex during a period, that’s fine. Most women do not feel sexy or have severe pain. Making love during menstruation is not for everyone, and that’s OK, we all love something else.<\/strong> But if you think your menstruation or sex during it is disgusting, then explore why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
