You’re more prone to getting STDs
While sex on your period offers many benefits, it is also riskier in the STD department. Everyday Health tells us that because the cervix opens up during menstruation, your body is more susceptible to bacteria getting in.

You’re more prone to passing on STDs

That extends to oral
It’s fine to have someone perform oral on you while you’re on your period. However, it will be easier for you to pass on a blood-borne STD to a partner, even without intercourse.

Or you may not see anything at all
Because sex can speed up the release of menstrual blood, some women don’t see any blood for a day or two after having intercourse. It hasn’t been pushed back inside. It was just pushed out during sex.

Sex can speed up blood flow
Some women believe that having sex on their period makes them bleed more, but this isn’t true. Some sexual activity can cause the uterus to release more blood and tissue at once, but it doesn’t generate more blood than normal.

These positions are least messy
Anything that involves you on top will be messiest—thanks to gravity. Laying on your side or your back are good options, but the best is one where your legs are up in the air (maybe hooked around his neck). The blood flows downward, according to Women’s Health.
