We\u2019re big fans of riding the crimson tide, whether you\u2019re turned on by the idea of getting outright red and messy or would prefer to keep things clean with the help of a trusty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/ziggy-cup\">menstrual disc<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But look, we get it. Sometimes, no matter how horny you\u2019re feeling, sexual activities just aren\u2019t in the cards during your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/5-menstruation-myths-busted\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><u>monthly moon time<\/u><\/a>. Be it bloating or cramps or that clogged-up, constipated feeling, you just might not be into intercourse until that time of the month is over.<\/p>\n<p>Still, we see no need to slow down your sex drive, as there are so many incredible ways to tease and please your external erogenous zones with a partner that doesn\u2019t require intercourse.<\/p>\n<p>You can still set the mood, get creative and get your kicks even when you\u2019re not in the mood for penetration. Read on for some novel tips and tricks about things to do while on the period (sexually) to keep the sex going all month long (without the mess, of course). Who knows, you might even discover a whole new way to look at intercourse!<\/p>\n<h2 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"><strong>Period Sex Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re nostalgic for the days of making out behind the bleachers and sneaking out of the house to meet up with your crush, here\u2019s a youthful sex game just for you.<\/p>\n<p>Our suggestion for your next couples\u2019 date night is to turn back the clock to the days before penetrative sex was even in the cards. Pretend you\u2019re back in high school and relive some of the foreplay you experienced long before you started having sex.<\/p>\n<p>This game involves all of your teen-hood faves: good tunes, grinding with your clothes on, and tangling tongues \u2013 and this time, you don\u2019t have to fret about mom walking in.<\/p>\n<p>Ask one partner to make a 30-minute mixtape \u2013 or, rather, a playlist since we live in 2022 \u2013 of make-out songs.<\/p>\n<p>While the playlist sets the mood in the background, try all sorts of teenage-era play &#8211; first talk and then start kissing, massaging, fondling, grinding, dry humping, and letting your hands wander. This little game is a great way to slow down, elongate foreplay, and enjoy the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Just like your wardrobe of stone-washed jeans and hair scrunchies, this game is easily customized depending on your mood. You can extend your playlist as long as you like, and you never have to \u201cgo all the way\u201d if you have menstruation.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Give The Gift Of Goosebumps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When was the last time you got goosebumps from a sensual stroke or a lingering kiss? Now you can take those tingles to the next level with a sensual game that\u2019s rather PG and definitely penetration-free, all things considered.<\/p>\n<p>To play the game, choose one partner to receive and one partner to give (and don\u2019t worry, you can always switch later). The receiver lays on their side while the giving partner gently strokes and kisses their ear and neck, alternating between different techniques based on their partner\u2019s reaction. The giver should pay careful attention to which sexy moves send goosebumps up their partner. Wherever goosebumps appear, gently stroke the tiny bumps.<\/p>\n<p>For the person on the receiving end, having the goosebumps stroked in just the right way will cause intense tingling sensations, causing a loop of pleasure that will then reverberate from the neck and down throughout the entire body.<\/p>\n<p>These goosebump orgasms are the result of the vagus nerve, which delivers sensory information to the brain and also connects to the nipples, uterus, and vagina in women. Certain areas on the neck and ears correspond to where the vagus nerve lies on the surface of the skin, hence the ability to trigger the sensitive vagus nerve with just the right amount of external stroking.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lead The Way To Your Treasure Trove<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Nothing drops serious hints like a trail that leads your lover straight to your erogenous zones. This next foreplay game is perfect for your menstruation because <em>you <\/em>decide exactly where to \u2013 quite literally \u2013 draw the line.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll need to prepare this game before your date night or be ready when your partner gets home. Start with an erasable marker or a pen. Choose a spot and write <em>start<\/em>. From there, create dashed lines leading to destinations around your body.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d rather not mark yourself up with a box of Crayolas, you can alternatively use eco-friendly lipstick, or thick, non-drippy chocolate or caramel depending on how messy you like to get.<\/p>\n<p>If there\u2019s a particular spot that deserves extra attention, write the number of minutes you want your pirate to spend there. Have your partner begin at the starting point, kissing slowly, following the dashed lines, and focusing on parts you want pleased.<\/p>\n<p>Along the way, if there are any parts you\u2019d prefer to stay off-limits, feel free to make it known with your body marker. For example, if you\u2019d rather your partner steer clear of your downstairs during your period, we suggest a comical skull-and-crossbones to ward them away (though we make no promises that they won\u2019t want to dive in anyway!).<\/p>\n<p>Let your treasure trail end at your favorite erogenous zone and let your sensual explorer take it from there.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ask And Arouse<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Not all of us have a knack for improvisation. This Q&amp;A -style game lets you devise questions, sexy scenarios, and even hot selfies ahead of time. When you\u2019re ready to get your game on, gather everything you\u2019ve prepared and get ready for a teasing good time.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the basics of play, as you\u2019ll need to get prepped before this game. Each person gets three envelopes. In each one, including a sexy picture, role-play scenario you\u2019d like to try \u2013 with details and action \u2013 such as, \u201cI\u2019ll take my panties off in the bathroom and bring them back to you,\u201d or a sexual act you\u2019ll do for your partner.<\/p>\n<p>Again, when the choices are in <em>your <\/em>hands, you get to decide how far you go. If it\u2019s that time of the month, there are still a million and one fun, sexy activity to spice up your night.<\/p>\n<p>Now grab your evening goodies, and find a secluded spot in your favorite date-night restaurant to start unveiling your surprises.<\/p>\n<p>Take the envelopes to dinner and play a game of sexy questions \u2013 things you would do places you\u2019d like to have sex, something you\u2019ve never done but want to try. The more intense the question, the more points the answer wins. Every 5 points earn you access to one of the sensual goody-filled envelopes you created prior.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t imagine your appetites for dinner will last much longer, so spring for some appetizers so you can scoot back home to the bedroom ASAP!<\/p>\n<h2>Do not Forget about Oral Sex?<\/h2>\n<p>Period sex doesn&#8217;t have to be focused on kissing and waiting. You can sometimes be a giver while waiting to receive. So propose something completely different to your partner &#8211; tray giving oral sex and for any oral sex given during this period, he or she will give you the double dose once your period is gone. Turn touches and sex games into a lottery &#8211; bet to win double.<\/p>\n<h2>Shower Sex is Cool<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to try penetrative sex, you can always try shower sex. But please have in mind to practice safe sex. Having your period doesn&#8217;t mean you are safe when it comes to bacterial infection and sexually transmitted infection. Unprotected sex is a serious thing, and you must think about that. Sexual activity in a committed relationship is much different than sex with someone you just met. So please, enjoy, but be smart.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>We Vibin<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Of course, there\u2019s always room to bring in your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/bringing-a-vibrator-into-the-bedroom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><u>favorite sex toy<\/u><\/a>. You may need extra lubrication so buy some, be prepared. Or if you like it more &#8211; try by utilizing hands, mouths, and more. No matter your sexual preference, sex does not have to include penetration! The most important thing is &#8211; to enjoy and stay safe!<\/p>\n<div class=\"drstamp\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; background-color: #fff5f7; padding: 20px 20px 5px 20px;\">\n<h3 style=\"padding-bottom: 10px;\">Facts checked by:<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"color: #ed008c;\"><strong>Dr. Shree Datta<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-28100\" style=\"padding-top: 5px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intimina.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3LQ6bY-L_400x400.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Laurie Mintz, Ph.D.\" width=\"110\" height=\"96\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Dr. Shree Datta is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist in London, specialising in women&#8217;s health including all menstrual problems such as fibroids and endometriosis.
