To watch the video you must log into YouTube
With all the discouraging thoughts roaming in my head I put it off.
Truthfully, I just didn’t feel the need to invite any further negative attention, and assumed that a video on such a taboo subject would definitely bring that about.
Having said that, after much personal debate I finally decided that since these videos are for you – designed to educate, liberate, inform, and possibly help you engage in something you might enjoy – I would throw caution to the wind and make the video.
While having sex while on your period is nothing to be embarrassed about, ashamed of, or scared of, I do completely understand that for some of you it may be too “gross” to consider. If you choose to have sex on your period, or not, that’s a completely personal decision that every person, and couple, has a right to.
If you want to do it, that’s okay.
If you don’t, well that’s okay too.
Just keep in mind that no actual harm can come from having sex on your period, nor can any damage be done. It’s just the body flushing out what’s no longer needed.
For those of you that want more information, here’s some links to sites that should be handy and helpful when it comes to learning about the ovulation cycle and menstruation in general.
Scarleteen, Everyday Health, Healthline, and Forbes.
Regarding products mentioned in the video: Disposable Soft Disc Menstrual Cups, Diva Cup, Female/Internal Condom, and Diaphragm video.

Me and my bf have tried to have sex on my period but I started hurting the instant he started inserting inside me, so we decided that when I am on my period we won’t have sex.
