Amidst all the emotional fluctuations, bloating, painful cramps, and the bloody river flowing down there, sex may seem out of the equation.
Furthermore, there are many religious and cultures stigmas that forbid sex during menstruation, which can make it even harder for people to break the glass ceiling and enjoy period sex.
Here are a few fascinating myths busting facts about period sex that may surprise you:
One of the biggest reasons why people move away from period sex is the thought of the potential mess that could follow. But with little planning, you can ace the challenges of period sex. For instance, laying down some dark towels can work best if you’re planning to have sex on bed. Another clean way to enjoy sex is in the shower which can reduce the flow of blood and also provide you with a chance to experience a hot and steamy session. During this time, sex positions wherein man is on top or you both are lying side by side are more preferable. Above all, period sex is healthy and will not have any side effects on the penis or the vagina.
“Women have a more intense and quicker orgasm during period sex.”
During that time of the month, hormone levels are at the loftiest level. This makes most women feel horrendous while others experience sickness, mood swings, or swollen genitals. Due to the heightened sensitivity in the breasts and vagina, women have a more intense and quicker orgasm during period sex. They also secrete bodily fluids which can act as natural lubrication. Thus, pleasure can be even better during period sex than normal sex.
Though the probabilities are very low, you can still get pregnant when you’re on your period. A sperm can stay alive inside the woman for up to five days. And once the bleeding has stopped, an egg can still be fertilized. Moreover, both partners are at the risk of transmitting and receiving sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis and chlamydia. Therefore, always use the best condoms in India manufactured by the top condom brands like Manforce condoms during your periods.
Sex during menstruation can help relieve cramps and pain. Basically, endorphins are released during orgasm which can relieve the nasty cramps and act as a stress buster. Also, it can increase the endometrial shedding, which can make your periods shorter.
Don’t let anything or anyone ruin your act of pleasure. Break the shackles of uncertainty and explore the new dimension of sex.
