That Time of the Month

[Lia]

I am very fortunate in the fact that my Master does not seem to mind when I have my period. We typically play just as much at that time of the month as we do at any other time. Other than the fact that I am typically more tired, it luckily doesn't seem to slow us down. There are only two drawbacks from my perspective: 1. my pain threshold is lower as I tend to be more physically sensitive just before and during my period, and 2. it can be a little messy.

I am curious how others handle this. Do most female subs find that having their period prevents them from playing, or do they also like to play at this time in their cycle? Do male Dom's have an opinion on this subject? Thanks for your responses!

I'd have to say that being on her period wouldn't slow down the play, but it would change the style or approach to the scene. Bloody sex is something that honestly just turns me off, so that doesn't happen. However, there are plenty of other ways to play right?

Hmm. I have to say that I think it would interrupt play for me. My Dom and I have yet to meet, but I can truthfully say that the first couple of days during my period would be a no no. I'll not go into details here ::lol:: but all I want to do is curl up into a ball and die.

That sounds like my ex-girlfriend. She was totally incapacitated by her periods (headaches, stomachaches, cramping, diarrhea). She also could never keep track of her periods, even though she was regular as the calendar, every 29 days, so unless I warned her, it caught her by surprise every time.

Lol, yeah, that's me. I don't get the runs, but I do get really bad backaches as well as all the rest. It's far from fun. I can keep track of mine though, as I get all the symptoms before the ***** thing even starts! :yuck:

Hormones of somekind (though I am generally against them) will help those nasty periods BabySub. These can come in the form of the pill, a patch, or the Merena IUD. You may want to check with your doctor...

Um...well, it's lucky he doesn't mind...otherwise he'd be dating/in a Ds relationship with a man.

Massage as in a visit with five pounds of flogger. Puts them right to sleep every time. Aleve though helps them stay there.

Er..Dngnkeeper - if you massaged me with a five pound flogger in the first 2 days of my period...well, let's just say i might need that Aleve to put my prison guards to sleep.

i suffer quite badly with PMS, i'd rather not do anything major, because i feel like crap, it hurts more but not in a fun way..and, well, it's messy. i'd generally trust my Master to make reasonable decisions regarding it i guess.

Ah...the "it's that time of the month so what do we do?" question. The messiness of it doesn't bother my Master (he loves blood :-[ ) but usually we avoid the mess due to the fact that his mother still does his laundry, which includes the sheets, and we'd rather avoid all the questions about what we do in bed. So...that leaves us with spanking (for me) and oral play (for him) which we love so it's not really a problem. I usually don't get cramps but I'm more sensitive to pain and more tired than usual which he takes into consideration when we play. Everyone's different though which the previous responses have already shown.

I used to get horrible cramps when my little red friend came to visit. For some reason, after I had my oldest son, they weren't as bad (or maybe I didn't notice it as much because I was too busy chasing him around.) After my second child I had my tubes tied (I don't want anymore, and my doctor told me any more might possibly be dangerous to my health, so he tied my tubes at 24)and after that, although I still get the occasional cramp, it's not the hot-water-bottle-in-bed-with-extra-strength-tylenol cramps I had before. And since it is messy, I'll give myself several enemas to clean myself out very thoroughly and hubby and I use the 'back door' or the mouth to pleasure ourselves with until Mrs. Happy's fully operational again. He loves my BJ's.

There's a lovely product on the market called Instead. It's vaguely diaphram-shaped, with a deeper cup. You insert it during your period, and it catches it instead of absorbing it. You take it out and empty it when you need to, which is up to half as often as a regular tampon. There have been no reported cases of Toxic Shock Syndrome for Instead users, and it's made of soft plastic, so no latex allergies. And you can have sex with it in, without making a mess! It's quite nice. I've been a convert for almost a year now, and it's great. The only drawbacks I've seen so far is that it's kind of gross when you're changing it, and that you can't tell in advance when you're about to 'spring a leak'. Other than that, it's great.

Okay. I gotta say it.

No offense, but eeewwwwww!!!

DITTO :That is a new one for me also... Damn that just sounds kinda nasty!

I really don't see a problem if my partner doesn't see a problem. My object of desire is my object of desire whatever the time of the month. I just don't see anything vulgar or disgusting in mentrual fluid and certainly nothing off putting in a woman menstruating. It is just one more thing that adds to my curiousity. If I want to discover my lover both psychologically and physically, why censor my relationship with her?
