Ignoring the colourful, nonsensical and slightly disturbing terminology – 'his big snake'.
Sex during menstruation is perfectly ok, menstruation does not stop you from doing anything you would do when not menstruating, it isn't an illness or a disease it is a normal function of the vagina, the blood no more makes it a problem to have sex as discharge, lubrication or cervical mucus does.
There are a lot of taboos around menstruation that leads people to have negative attitudes about menstruation, think ing of it as a burden, dirty or embarrassing, this is the only thing that makes people think it might not be ok, or come to address menstruation with the maturity of a five-year-old.
A lot of women's libidos are higher during menstruation because of hormonal changes in the body as well as a stronger connection with their genitals as their presence is felt more when there are such radically visible and sensible things going on within the vagina. So if sex during menstruation was not it wouldn't be PMS making menstruating women cranky, it would be more like the lack of sex!
Sex during menstruation can have advantages, namely that it helps ease off menstrual cramps and speeds up menstruation. During sex there is increased blood flow to the vagina and muscles contract and relax, also during orgasm it is believed that a hormone which causes uterine contractions is released called Oxytocin, which can help to push out menstrual material. If you have sex without a condom or similar barrier methods, while hopefully still practicing safe sex, and your partner ejaculates inside you then it is also believed that there is a chemical within the semen that helps soften the cervix. The purpose of this is to soften the cervix in order to make it easier for sperm to travel up into the uterus, but it has the benefit of helping release menstrual flow when you have sex during menstruation.
It can get messy, if you are comfortable with your body that isn't an issue and really there is no reason why it should be apart from of course that the blood can stain the sheets – there are ways around this though;
•Putting a sheet/period blanket down onto the bed or surface you are having sex upon to protect the surface from blood so not to stain.
•Having sex in the shower or bath where blood can be easily washed away and warm water, or even cold water depending on what works for you, can ease menstrual cramping.
•Using soft tampons, these are tampons specifically designed to be worn when menstruating allowing for penetrative penis to vagina sex during menstruation without mess - http://www.gynotex.com
•Using softcups, these are a type of menstrual cup that are shaped like a diaphragm allowing for penetrative penis to vagina sex during menstruation without mess - http://www.softcup.com
•Using diaphragms, these are not only a form of contraception but can also be used as reusable menstrual cups, allowing for penetrative penis to vagina sex during menstruation without mess.
•Don't have penetrative penis to vagina sex; engage in other forms of sex, from anal, oral and masturbation through to simple touching and kissing.
[You can have penetrative sex with other forms of internal menstrual products, such as tampons, sponges and bell-shaped menstrual cups, however it is not advised and can be difficult]
It is possible to become pregnant from sex during menstruation, although it is rare, and certainly the idea of being more likely to become pregnant from sex during menstruation is nonsense.
You are normally fertile around ovulation, this is typically between day 12 and 16 of your menstrual cycle, normally on day 14 – the first true day of bleeding is day 1 of your menstrual cycle – so menstruation is actually a few weeks either side of your fertile period.
Some women however have very messed up cycles and although it is impossible to actually become pregnant during menstruation (it is biologically impossible to ovulate during menstruation, so there will never be an egg to fertilise during menstruation) it is possible for your body to produce cervical mucus that helps keep sperm alive within your vagina for up to five days so if you were to ovulate early in your cycle it is possible that sex during menstruation can lead to pregnancy.
In short, always use protection against unwanted pregnancy and STD's no matter what time in your cycle.
As for pain issues, during menstruation your cervix is lower down within your vagina, it is also soft and more sensitive due to menstruation, as a result it is easier for your partners penis to hit during sex, this itself can be painful, but more so if your cervix is sensitive due to menstruation – simply be careful to try to use sexual positions where you can be in control of the level of penetration, insure you are aroused enough as to insure your vagina is expanded enough for full penetration, and stop if it is hurting you.

Sex while on your period is nice because it alleviates cramps. Plus the mess usually isn't that bad; and you can just lay an old towel down and stop worrying. Sex is ALWAYS messy anyway, it's just more... visible when you're menstruating. And you don't need to break out the artificial lubrication either.
Furthermore, multiple orgasms are easier to reach for many women that have mild menstrual periods. Many women report a feeling of being totally open, full and in their power while menstruating. Myths from the early patriarchal religions perpetuated fear and distrust to the extent that from some cultures a man would lose his strength, vitality, wisdom, sight, and could even die from coming in contact with a bleeding woman!!
Reality shows us that one can become pregnant during her period, our bodies being unpredictable at times; so always make sure you are using some form of birth control if you do not want another pregnancy. Also remember to avoid sexual activities while bleeding if you are high risk for transmitting HIV or hepatitis.

Sex whilst on your period is ok although a bit messy. However pain whilst having sex and after is not. I suggest if you really are in agony to go and see your GP. I know it's embarassing but you really should go to be on the safe side.
Goodd Luck

please its is so normal its like having an egg during breakfast and i do not think you should have any complications at all unless you have problematic periods.
it is the most enjoyable time to have sex coz lubrication comes easily, but you have to be careful which positions you choose coz it can be messy, the best thing is to do it in the showers while the shower is running hmmmmm
try exercise to lessen the pain during your days?
ciao girl

Hey girl, pain is nothing compared to happiness.
If you're happy of what you're doin' endure the pain and treasure the happiness with your love one. After all, life is full of pain but after the rain comes sunshine! and happiness is eternal!

Nothing wrong with sex during the period (can be quite good, actually), but if it makes you hurt, perhaps you should reconsider.
