Don’t let the period stop your orgasms.
Have you ever wondered when we are on our periods why the excitement to get intimate is habitually high as compared to regular days?
Because during periods, the ratio of estrogen and progesterone — the hormones produced in the ovaries fluctuates the most. A woman’s body experiences a boost in estrogen, which leads to increase libido before a period, while the boost in progesterone leads to a lower sex drive.
By the time of ovulation, the estrogen levels go up, reaching the peak; that’s why a woman’s libido gets more intense during the period. It follows ovulation by increasing progesterone production, which may lead to a drop in your sex drive.
During menstruation and a few days after it, the concentration of both hormones is low, causing a decrease in sexual desire.

According to studies, intimacy during periods can help relieve those symptoms that make periods painful and obnoxious. A woman experiences better orgasms, and sex becomes pleasurable.

Beginner’s Period Sex Advice
Do you have no idea where to start when it comes to having sex while on your period? In addition to talking with your spouse about what is most comfortable for both of you, here are a few things to consider.
1. Make use of a towel
Nobody wants to have their bedding stained. Fortunately, a towel can quickly solve this issue. Before you begin, throw a towel on your bed and then toss it in the washing machine. We recommend using a scarlet or dark-colored towel.
2. Period Sex in the Shower is a fun way to experiment with your period
Are you uninterested in a shambles of any kind? Try period sex in the shower. Unlike ordinary period sex, which can wash away the vagina’s natural lubricant, menstrual blood will provide just the right amount of lubricant. The blood will be less obvious in the shower, and you won’t have to clean it up.
3. Use birth control and engage in healthy sexual behavior
It doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant just because you’re on your period. Even though the chances of conception are lower at this period of the menstrual cycle than at other times, over 30% of women have irregular cycles. As a result, it’s possible that you won’t be able to identify if you’re menstruating or ovulating. Please seek advice from a doctor before deciding on the best birth control method for you.
Keep in mind that not all birth control methods work to prevent STIs from spreading. See a registered medical specialist about how to practice safe relations, whether it’s period sex or not.
4. Have a good time and be creative when it comes to period sex
Penetration is just one way to make love. Oral stimulation can be just as pleasurable whether the person receiving it is on her period. Many people have no problems with having oral intercourse during their period, and others even enjoy the messiness.
Take a note couples:
Don’t avoid making out during periods; it’s not nasty or repugnant. Having sex during menstruation is magical and romantic. A woman may experience more pleasure during period sex because it boosts her hormonal response and helps increase the natural lubrication, making things more comfortable.
