Valentine’s Day: Also known as the International Day of Love! It’s time to celebrate love, romance, and above all, connect. So whether you’re spending the day with a significant other or treating yourself to some self-love, the day is full of possibilities.
But what happens if you’re on your period? The idea of having sex or sharing special moments while you’re menstruating can sometimes feel nerve-wracking (don’t worry, we’ve been there too!) Like can we really have mess-free period sex? Or is it even OK to have it?)
Thankfully, here at DIVA, we know and believe that embracing romance and intimacy during your period is normal and more possible than you might think, especially with the right tools and a mindset shift. Let’s break down why you can still have a beautiful, fulfilling Valentine’s Day — period and all.
Breaking the taboo: Periods and intimacy
There’s often a cultural hesitation around having intimacy during your period, driven by myths, discomfort, and feelings of embarrassment. But let’s get one thing straight: menstruation is a natural part of life, and it doesn’t have to be a barrier to connection, passion, or affection.
If you're on your period, there’s no need to shy away from expressing love and affection in ways that feel right for you, especially on none other than Valentine’s Day!
How to have a mess-free Valentine’s Day with the DIVA Disc
Enter the DIVA Disc—a revolutionary menstrual product that’s a game-changer for anyone looking to have the most romantic evening, without worrying about leaks or mess. Think of it as the ultimate period hack for stress-free sex on Valentine’s Day.
The DIVA Disc is a menstrual disc that sits comfortably at the base of your cervix, collecting menstrual flow, and offering a mess-free experience that you can wear for up to 12 hours. So, whether you're enjoying intimate moments or just want to spend the day feeling comfortable, our menstrual disc has got you covered. Unlike tampons or pads, which can feel bulky or uncomfortable, the DIVA Disc is designed for maximum comfort and versatility. It’s discreet, flexible, and easy to use.
Remember, intimacy goes beyond the physical
Don’t forget, though. Valentine’s Day isn’t just about the physical act of intimacy—it’s also about emotional connection and shared moments of love. If you’re not feeling up for physical intimacy (which is totally OK!) consider the many other ways you can bond with your partner (or yourself) during this special day.
Share a thoughtful conversation over a cup of tea, cook a romantic dinner together, or write each other love letters. Take a romantic bubble bath or enjoy a movie night in to celebrate how close you’ve grown over time. You can have a wonderful, intimate day even if you’re not feeling particularly “sexy” because, ultimately, romance isn’t only about physicality—it’s about fostering that deeper connection.
And while you may be focusing on your partner or others on Valentine’s Day, remember that self-love is at the core of everything. Don’t let your period take away from the moments you want to cherish. Pamper yourself, appreciate where you are in your cycle, and give yourself the gift of ease, comfort, and peace of mind.
