As Indian women, we’ve been subjected to years of societal conditioning that often turns our pleasure into a secret burden, especially during our periods. The extensive list of dos and don’ts that come with menstruation can make it seem like there’s a built-in ‘no fun’ clause. Why let a bit of extra mess prevent you from enjoying increased pleasure, reduced cramps, and enhanced intimacy? If you’re nodding in agreement, read on!
For those who find their libido heightened during their period, or if your partner is unsure about navigating this time, there’s no need to worry! While any sex position can technically be tried during your period, we’ve got some exciting suggestions to make you actually look forward to that time of the month.
If curling up with a heat pad isn’t on your agenda, lay down a towel (or don’t) and get ready to try these positions:
Missionary with Straight Legs
This variation of the classic missionary position offers a unique twist. Imagine the relaxing ‘legs up the wall’ yoga pose, but with your partner acting as the wall. Keep your legs together and place them on their chest, or let them hold them up for you. This allows for deep penetration while still giving your partner access to your clitoris, providing that extra burst of pleasure.
Spooning on the Side
Any lying-down position can make period sex enjoyable, but spooning lets you explore different angles and depths. For added excitement, lift your leg closest to the ceiling into a ‘T’ shape. This gives your partner more room to enter and offers an incredible view.
Standing Up in the Shower
This position is perfect for easy clean-up. Lift one leg as if preparing to shave and face your partner, or rest it on the edge of the tub or shower. This is an excellent choice to kickstart your weekend with a bang (literally and figuratively) or to end it with a cozy, intimate night with your partner.
