Its your first time you have decided to have sex with your partner while she is on her period and on question keeps playing through your mind is it 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.

But if you are not scared by these problems, then you can go right ahead. Of course you should wait for your lady to get over the worst days of her period, if you want sex to be any fun that is. The best idea is to spread a towel on the bed in order to keep the blood off the sheets, preferably a black or dark red towel. You can try any position you want, but your best bet is to stay on top and have the lady below. This should limit the flow of blood a little. The lady could also put to good use a diaphragm or a menstrual cup in order to keep the blood in, at least for a while.

For risks brought on by sex during mensturation are the increase in pelvic infections, HIV and even pregnancy. This is all as the cervix widens during this time. And yes you can get pregnant, whilst it may be rare i has happened a few times. Just make sure you have fun whilst playing it safe.
