I don't think I really even need an answer to this one, but I'm going to ask anyway just for people's input.
Okay, so someone told me that having sex is good for period cramps because orgasms reduce the pain.
Please tell me that this is a lie, because that's really just disgusting.

Sorry to disappoint you but that is a true statement. The contractions that the uterus has during orgasm will indeed help releive cramping. There is absolutely no reason why you cannot have sexual intercourse during your period and actually some males are very "turned on" by this. It is NOT disgusting.

Well, it's the orgasm that is helpful for your period. The stronger contractions of an orgasm seem to help in various respects.
But you don't need to "have sex" to have an orgasm. I never have sex during my period. I have, and personally, I don't find it enjoyable at all.
Do something creative with YOURSELF in the shower, it's the best place for privacy and naturally "cleaner" during moon time.
Good luck!

I don't know about period cramps BUT...
during the feminine orgasm some hormones are released
some of them are endorphins that act also as pain killers.
the only thing is it will not last for long :-(

I had a girlfriend, a long time ago, for whom this worked.But obviously, for easy to understand reasons, we only ever did this towards the end of her period.

Well working out is supposed to reduce cramps while on your period, but I've never seen any medical backup that orgasms relieve pain during that time.
