Periods can be challenging, especially when it comes to intimacy. For years, I avoided period sex. The worry about leaks, stained sheets, and messy clean-ups always held me back. Even though my boyfriend was supportive, I felt uneasy.

That changed when I discovered the my mimi menstrual disc. It promised a more comfortable, worry-free solution - and it delivered.

why i avoided period sex before discovering menstrual discs

Using tampons and pads left me feeling limited. Tampons caused dryness and discomfort, while pads made me feel self-conscious and restricted. I wanted something better. Learning that menstrual discs are gaining popularity and could even be worn during sex got my attention.

Curious and hopeful, I ordered my mimi. It wasn’t just about sex at first. I simply wanted better period care. But what happened next surprised me.

The first use was easier than I expected. Once inserted, I couldn't feel it. It stayed in place, prevented leaks, and felt natural. Removing it was different but manageable. By the second day, I was confident and comfortable.

The real moment came later, during an intimate evening with my boyfriend. Normally, I would have hesitated, but I remembered I was wearing my my mimi menstrual disc for mess-free period sex.

As things heated up, I felt confident. He didn’t even notice I was wearing it. Afterward, I checked the sheets - no leaks, no mess. The experience was completely different from what I was used to. I felt liberated and relaxed.

That night changed everything for me. Period sex became natural and stress-free. The my mimi menstrual disc made it possible.
