Perhaps one of the most taboo topics when it comes to vaginas is the fact that periods are a thing and, obviously, there is absolutely nothing wrong or remotely obscene about it! Even though (thankfully) people are a lot more prone to openly talk about periods with one another, the number of people that may have not had sex while the woman is on her period is quite staggering.
Even though when on periods, there is this perception that maybe women do not want to have sex, this could not be further from the truth, in fact (and obviously this can change depending on the person), the sex drive can be heightened plus, there are a number of benefits to having sex when you’re on your period and we are here to tell you all about it!
Heightened Sensations
One of the best aspects about having sex while period is active, is the fact that the sensations felt can be quite heightened, making every touch and every lick that much more intense!
In fact, some women make it a must-have to have sex while on their period, simply because it feels so damn good, almost like a totally new experience!
If you have never tried to have sex while on your period, we highly recommend you do so, just so you can experience all that your body can truly feel that, perhaps, you may not even have imagined that it could!
Fewer Cramps, More Orgasms
If you suffer from extremely painful cramps (and I’m sure everyone does or has at least once) then you probably will love this added benefit to having sex while on your period!
You see, when you are on your period, the cramps you get are a result of your uterus contracting so, when you have orgasms, it contracts and then releases and, that might just be one of the most cramp relieving feelings ever!
Not only that but, also, the fact that having sex releases endorphins is quite amazing, because those wonderful natural chemicals make you feel good so, if you suffer from a bit of a mood swing as well as cramps, well, start collecting orgasms left and right with your partner!
Shorter Periods
If you are looking for a shortcut to get through your period faster then sex might just be the answer! With the contractions and releases that will happen during sex (in particular the orgasm) the muscles of your uterus could release the uterine contents faster, which would eventually shorten the period time!
Overall, sex while on your period is a wonderful thing and, you should not let the fear of seeing a little bit of blood stop you from enjoying all the benefits that your body can provide while on this painful but beautiful cycle! Just doing a little bit of prep before jumping to bed can ease your nerves and grant you a sense of confidence, which will make enjoying the moment your only task!
