You have decided to have a go at one of your fantasies and have decided it will be to have sex during your ladies period. Thats when you come to answering the big question: will it be safe?

Sex during mensturation is in fact safe, but also it can be a bit messy. As in fact it can be as safe as expected as blood is the medium in which infectious agents multiply, so that also needs to be considered before starting. There can also be a chance on contracting HIV when having so much blood around. It may be a good idea if your not sure of yourself or your partner to use a condom. There is no medical re! ason as to why a couple (free of STD’s) cant have sex during menses.

However if you want sex and are not scared of anything then you can just go ahead and do it. Yet it is a good idea for the worst of her period to be over is you want to make it fun. Putting a dark or red towel over the sheets is a good idea as well as it will help to protect them. It’s fine for you to do any position but it is highly recommended to limit blood flow, for the male to stay on top. The use of a menstural cup or diaphragm will also help to keep some blood in for a bit.

The biggest risks brought by sex during menstruation are an increase in the risk of pelvic infections and HIV (because the opening of the cervix widens) and also a higher risk of pregnancy. Yep, you read that right: pregnancy. Just because your lady is having her period does not mean that you cannot get her pregnant. It’s rare, I’ll grant you that, but it did happen quite a few times. Have fun and stay safe.
