Whether you find the idea of se.x during
your period gross or exciting is up to you. Perhaps colored by society –
many cultures and religions consider it taboo
– we shy away from even talking about it. But as long as you’re prepared, s.ex during your period can be a great idea; just make sure it’s not the day you break out those white sheets!
– we shy away from even talking about it. But as long as you’re prepared, s.ex during your period can be a great idea; just make sure it’s not the day you break out those white sheets!
1. It helps relieve cramps.
There’s no reason to stop having se.x
just because you have your period. In fact, it’s a great time to have
it. “The biochemical released in your system will help alleviate
cramping and aches. S.ex is a natural pain reliever and can lessen pain
symptoms up to 70%!” says love and se.x coach Kim Anami.
2. It acts as an anti-depressant.
“Furthermore, according to Paul Zak,
PhD, a researcher at Claremont Graduate University in Claremont,
California, the higher your oxytocin, the higher your happiness and
well-being, at least for women,” says Sneider.
3. It increases in.timacy.
Don’t feel awkward about the mess, se.x
is messy (in general!) and for some couples overcoming the mess and
breaking down the barriers can lead to increased intimacy and enjoyment,
helping you feel closer to your partner, says Sneider.
4. There’s less risk of getting pregnant.
Does decreased risk of pregnancy turn
you on? Well, check this out: If you’re trying to avoid pregnancy,
having se.x during the menstrual period drastically diminshes the
possibility of pregnancy. “However, remember that is not a 100% proof
and sperm can live up to 72 hours. So if you have se.x during your last
day of your period without protection the possibility of getting
pregnant is even higher,” says Sneider.
5. The s.ex is hotter.
Your hormones are out of control this
time of month, and as messy as your period may be, it leads to extra
lubrication, better pelvic muscle tone and increased elasticity – all
spelling way more fun in the sack, says Dr. Susan Lin, an obstetrics
gynecological surgeon and founder ofMD Products.
