Question:
IS there a way to suspend bleeding during my period so that I can have sex witout my partner getting grossed out? Can I make myself clean in some way so that he doesn't get any blood on him or the condom?

Thank you for your quetion. To my knowledge there is no way to suspend bleeding during this time of the month. This is a natural process that will continue until you hit menopause. It doesn't have to be a gross experience for you or your partner however and many, many people have sex during this time and feel that making love is as natural, beautiful and enjoyable as any other time. Since stopping the bleeding isn't possible I'd work on trying to change the feelings so that it's more enjoyable at this time of the month. Good luck Stan Ducharme
