Let’s Talk About Sex - and Her Cycle
Understanding how the menstrual cycle affects libido, comfort, and arousal can make sex more satisfying for both partners. Whether it's the tenderness of menstruation or the high energy of ovulation, different stages of the cycle call for different kinds of intimacy. And when it comes to period sex, menstrual discs like my mimi play a powerful role - providing leak-free, worry-free protection so couples can connect without hesitation.
Let’s explore the best sex positions for each phase of the cycle - and how a my mimi disc can help every step of the way.
Menstrual Phase (Days 1–5)
How she may feel: Cramps, fatigue, tenderness, low energy, or unexpectedly aroused due to increased pelvic blood flow.
Best sex positions: Spooning, Missionary with Legs Elevated, Shower Sex
- Spooning: A gentle, side-by-side position that provides comfort and full control over depth and rhythm.
- Shower Sex: Warm water can soothe cramps while rinsing away any concerns about mess.
This is the perfect time to wear a my mimi menstrual disc. Designed to sit in the vaginal fornix, it collects menstrual flow without interfering with penetration - making it ideal for mess-free period sex. Unlike menstrual cups, discs stay out of the way and feel comfortable for both partners.
Follicular Phase (Days 6–14)
How she may feel: Energised, upbeat, playful. Oestrogen and testosterone are rising - so is libido.
Best sex positions: Cowgirl, Reverse Cowgirl, Standing from Behind
- Cowgirl: She’s in control of depth and pace - perfect for clitoral stimulation and increased sensitivity.
- Standing: A spontaneous, high-energy option during this confident, flirtatious phase.
For those with longer periods, a my mimi disc can still come in handy toward the start of this phase, offering peace of mind and freedom from surprises.
Ovulation Phase (Days 14–16)
How she may feel: Peaking libido, fertile, well-lubricated, emotionally and physically aroused.
Best sex positions: Doggy Style, Lotus, Edge of the Bed
- Doggy Style: Allows for deeper penetration, which can be more pleasurable when the cervix is naturally higher.
- Lotus: A close, sensual position that encourages intimacy and eye contact.
Even though ovulation is typically flow-free, spotting may occur. A my mimi disc offers backup protection - plus comfort if she’s feeling sensitive. Reminder: discs are not contraceptives.
Luteal Phase (Days 17–28)
How she may feel: Tender breasts, mood swings, fatigue, slower to arouse, possibly bloated or crampy.
Best sex positions: Missionary with Pillow Support, Side-by-Side, Face-to-Face Cuddles
- Missionary with Pillow Support: A pillow under the hips can reduce pressure on the abdomen and increase comfort.
- Side-by-Side: Encourages slow, intimate touch and reduced physical strain.
Pre-period spotting is common here, making this another ideal time to reach for a my mimi disc. The small size is discreet and soft - suitable even when the body feels bloated or sensitive.
