my boyfriend is truly sexually active to the point that we're having sex even if i have my period. worst thing is, he doesn't want to use condom which is dangerous as we all know. my question is... is it okay to use female condom during menstruation?

jena - November 27th, 2009 6:10 AM

yes, it can be used during menstruation period. it can even be used during pregnancies or even after recent childbirth. so, no worries...

having sex during menstruation period with or without condom is truly a messy one. but we are talking about safety measures, so i think it's the only best option that you got.

megan - November 27th, 2009 6:38 AM

i agree! just messy in a different way. but you can always do it in the bath...

sheila - November 27th, 2009 7:34 AM

it's better to be messy than have sex without condom most especially if your having your period. it's very unhealthy and may even cause infections.

totally true!!! menstrual blood can contain STD bacteria or viruses, so therefore you need protection during these times. male/female condom is the best option.

so how can we avoid mess when having sex during period? do you ladies got any idea for this? hahaha...

according to my doctor, sex during menstrual period is no longer dangerous. and the blood actually makes a perfect lubricant and enhances sexual satisfaction for some.

have you heard of menstrual cups?
if i am not mistaken, some women use this to have sex during menstrual period.
any input?

i agree with juliet. but having sex during menstruation does not protect a couple from STDs or pregnancy so therefore you still need to use other methods of contraceptions.

che-che - December 4th, 2009 11:37 AM

a menstrual cup is not a birth control device. it is a barrier worn during menstruation to collect menstrual fluid. unlike tampons and pads, it is reusable.

sheila - December 4th, 2009 11:38 AM

megan--- yes it can be used during sex. actually there are two types of menstrual cups available. the disposable and reusable. disposable cups can be worn during sex.

denise - December 4th, 2009 5:06 PM

just like what che-che said, menstrual cup is not a birth control device, so it means to say it can't protect you from getting pregnant. in short, you still need to take extra contraceptions since it's still possible to get pregnant during menstruation period.

really? i never thought you could still get pregnant during menstruation. i thought it is the safest time to have sex. how could it be possible?

elizabeth - December 4th, 2009 5:49 PM

yes it's because ovulation is highly unpredictable. aside from that, woman do not always ovulate at the same time each cycle. sometimes woman can be fertile as early as day 3 of her cycle.

liz - December 4th, 2009 6:31 PM

that's true! sometimes a woman's fertile period can also extend to the day when menstruation is about to begin. so there's no guarantee that a woman will not get pregnant when engage in sexual intercourse during menstruation period.

i had sex a couple of times during my period. lucky i never get pregnant. thanks for all the information here. next time i won't take any risk. :)
