Sex & Tha Period

___

By Chrys D.

“All I Wanna do is Zooma Zoom Zoom Zoom…”

… ina Poom Poom.

In my personal unpopular opinion, sex is STRICTLY PROHIBITED while I’m on my cycle! The pain that already comes with my PCOS/Endo would never allow it. And as clingy as I am with my gorgeous girlfriend, sometimes I don’t even want to be touched!

However, very common in the sexual diaspora, receiving your ‘red wings’ or ‘parting the red sea’ is most definitely a thing! Even beyond the potential ‘sexual’ association, we all want a partner (male or female) to morally support us in that inevitable time of the month. And sometimes, that means doing the ‘No Pants Dance!’


It has been said that sex during menstruation has certain benefits. Among these are:

  • An increased arousal

  • Strengthened connection with your partner

  • Relief from cramps

  • Possible shorter periods

To be transparent (& maybe a little TMI), I have experienced lessened cramps from self-gratification in the last couple days of my cycle. But that’s neither here nor there.

Everyone’s body is quite different! Even if we don’t agree on engaging in this act (or not), STAYING SAFE should always be top priority! 

PERIOD! Always KNOW THY CUCCI, SIS!


Love, & Thanks for Vibing with ThaMonthly.

ThaMonthly 6.10.22. II It’s Giving Hopeless. ___ By Chrys D. ‘I HATE! YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW!’ …you get on my nerves. So as we all know, the body is already a peculiar sort. But chile THE FEMALE BODY IS A WHOLE NOTHER MONSTER! You can possess the perfect body with an impeccable bill of health & still be blindsided. Aight so, once upon a time, I was a stripper. I’d like to call myself an ‘exotic entertainer’ because I was actually an optical illusion on that pole (LOL!) I digress. I worked with a chick who danced by the name Sincere. 5’7, caramel skinned with an AMAZING body. Every time she touched that stage, I was mesmerized.  One night, she came to work sick as fuck. As makeup was being applied & hair being tousled, she began to look super pale in the face. As she rose wobbly from her chair, she passed out immediately. I called 911 as I made a mad dash towards our manager.  A few days later, Sincere is back at work, regular & well. I let her know she scared the shit out of

ThaMonthly 5.21.22. I Chile, You Need To Know Yaself!! ___ By Chrys D. ‘Because Your Period Is More Than A Pain’ Fuck yeah, it is. I’m Chrystyan. A 33 year old Black Woman with Stage III Endometriosis. Before I even dive into the condition & the DRAMA it’s caused, allow me to show myself. I was a heterosexual woman for 31 years. My periods began at the age of 12 with indescribable symptoms since inception. I was forever getting early dismissals from school--sobbing uncontrollably in the fetal position at the nurses office. Lost my virginity at 16. I started on the Depo shot a few months after until I stopped receiving it at the age of 19. A year later, my periods came back with a vengeance. From the age of 20 til this very day, my body’s gone through several changes, only formally being diagnosed with Stage II Endo at 29. Right after receiving laparoscopic surgery to have 2 uterine fibroids removed. The earlier years proved better than the latter. It’s only showed me that the older

ThaMonthly   5.21.23 XII Full Circle ___ By Chrys D. ‘I’m headed to the stars, ready to go far… …I’m starwalkin.’ 1 year. 12 months. 365 days. The phrase ‘a lot can change in a year’ is ringing ever so loudly in my ears at this juncture. On this day last year, I turned 34 & started a MOVEMENT. I got in front of a camera & uttered the words “So what’s up yall, welcome to ThaMonthly.” That was the first episode of my podcast. Since then, I’ve been blessed to meet with people from all walks of life & hear their stories. Moms, Dads, Siblings. Spouses, Doctors, Working People. Religious, Spiritual, Non-conforming. All walks of life, All either suffer (or knows someone that does) from reproductive woes & the infringement of bodies & rights. & I love each and every one of them. This journey has also given me opportunities I could have never foreseen for myself. I started an organization placing free menstrual products in schools & public spaces. I became a writing
