I know this has been asked before, but I can't find it in the memories, so please forgive me.

I'm going on a trip from June 26-29. I'd like to have lots of sex on this trip. But my period's due on the 26th! I'm not using any hormonal BC methods right now, and I'm uninsured, so I probably won't be any time soon.

Any advice?

Thanks!

Instead cups or a diaphragm. That's pretty much it.

Instead cups are definitely a good option if you don't have a diaphragm.

However, there is always the idea of *gasp* overcoming the "taboo" of sex during your period. Most women are at their most horny during that time, and so few take advantage of it. You can do it in the shower if you're uncomfortable, or place a towel under you if that's not a problem.

You'd probably be surprised at how much you like it - I was, and I was always squeamish about the idea until I tried it. Your guy may end up liking it too - he'll probably like how much more into it you are :)

Just my $.02, for what it's worth :)

I've done it before and been fine. It's not a taboo issue for me, I just don't want to have to deal with painful cramps, bloating and diarrhea. Ideally, I'd like to either get my period early or put it off.

Gotcha :) Some women are all "ewww" about it, so I wasn't sure. I can totally understand about the cramps, etc - did you know orgasm is supposedly able to "relieve" the cramping? Might be worth a shot. Hehe.
