I've used toys during my period. I usually go for glass toys or something I can sterilize, or use clit stimulators.

I would say any non porous toy would be fine, or cover the toy with a condom, just to keep it from harboring bacteria.

As for red condoms... NO idea!

I use toys pretty much no matter what...I just try to stay away from anything light enough or porous enough to stain. My boyfriend is actually very OK with it and it wouldn't stop him at all but I'm not entirely comfortable, so I usually just make those couple of days all about him.

I know Trustex and Lifestyles put red in their assortments, but I've never seen an all red package. Maybe try Condomania or one of the other big condom retailers online? Just an FYI, I've never ordered through them online, but I had been in the store on Bleeker in the village when it was still open and they had a really impressive variety.

They have these that are pink w/ red tips link that may work.

And although EF doesn't carry these, they do carry a Trustex variety pack so you can read the reviews here on the quality of the latex and the feel. I've used them before and besides being a little on the thick side was always very happy with them. If you're only using them for during your period, a little less sensation than usual might not be the end of the world.

oh ya it was lifestyle but I don't want to buy a bunch of assortments and pick out the red ones idk what I'm going to do maybe. the ones in the link with the red tip won't do the pink is light and I thought those condoms were ugly.

If you go into the color section on Condomania, you can order their own brand of condoms in any color, including red. I've never used them, nor do I know anyone that has though, so I don't know what the quality is like.

I don't know the quality either..I always go for high rated ones that feel great for both people and are well made, reviews always mean alot to me when purchasing anything and I don't like how they have those weird ridges or grove things just want a regular condom.

Well I haven't used many kinds of condoms..if I used some texture ones in the past I don't remember lol was on birth control for a few years but use condoms now the bc just got too expensive for me and I can't afford insurance(did I go to far off topic?)

ANYWAY I'm all about material saftey and high quality I can't just go buy something that could be a hit or miss for me or just another toy to collect as I am all about making the most of my money and space too. there were some toys I'd really like to buy but the safety is rather lo,but I'm ok with owning just a couple rated low if I can be assured they can last a long time if I wear a condom over them...off topic but if I post a link to the ones I was looking at would you guys give me your opinions,carrie ann your opinion means alot because I watch your video reviews so detailed and clear voice.

I used clitoral stimulation only, or I use a waterproof toy that won't absorb anything while in the shower. Other than that, not on my monthly because I feel too gross

I don't really use toys on my period. That's an interesting question about the red condoms..the only red condoms I've seen are flavored. I think they were Durex condoms.

I have no problem using toys (or anything else) when I'm menstruating, but that might be because I'm in a same sex relationship and my partner goes through the same thing.

If you do chose to use toys while on your period, they should be completely sterilizable, like pure silicone or glass.

To make it easier, black condoms/black towels might make it easier on both of you. I don't like to be intimate in the shower while on my period, personally, I'd rather be stretched out and comfortable on a bed.

With the exception of laying down a maroon sheet and a maroon towel, and needing to shower after sex every time, our sex life is pretty much the same when I am not menstruating as when I am menstruating. Orgasm helps cramps for me, so it's a must. My Man doesn't care if I have my period, we just use the sheets and the towels (we lay them on top of the regular bed, so they can be taken away and washed after we have sex.)

We have sex once or twice a day and my menstruation lasts often 5 to 7 days, it used to last more. I can't imagine going without sex for that long. Toys are part of at least 3/4 of our sexual encounters, so of course we use them when I have my period.

It's just bodily fluids. It washes off. It isn't "dirty" and it might help your cramps. My Man never had a problem with period sex. I used to tell him he "didn't have to" go down if he didn't want to, but he ignored me and did it anyway. I was glad. I am still glad.

The only time we didn't have regular sex during my period was when I had endometriosis and I had pain all the time, and it was really intense during my period. Except for that time, a year or so, we have had sex during periods, all the time.

I prefer clit toys only but no sex. My bf would want it but I find it too yucky.

I use plastic toys or clit toys during my monthly. And my hubby will have sex with me during my monthly if he really wants it or if I make him really want it. He's fine with it as long as he doesn't look and immediately afterword cleans himself up.

I have no idea where to get red condoms though. Sorry.

You can use a condom during your period to make clean up easier. Orgasm during your monthly can ease cramps by making the disorganized cramps more even, for some women. For others it can increase the cramping and bleeding. If it works for you then I recommend a condom and a warm wet towel placed over the abdomen. The warm towel can ease crapms and is great for after orgasm cleanup!

i know this sounds weird but sometime the clinic has colored single condoms. maybe you could ask for a bag of all red.
