5 reasons to have se.x on your period ( While She’s M.enstruating )

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!

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. When you feel under the weather, one of the best things you can do is run and have an orgasm.

“During se.x your body releases oxytocin, which is a natural hormone that helps diminish the menstrual cramps and irritability sometimes experienced during this time,” says Dr. Estella Sneider, a se.x therapist and psychologist.

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.
