sex during your partners period.

recentley i had unprotected sex with my girlfriend while she was on her period. now this is the first time i've done that and i stopped after a couple of seconds because i didnt want to have sex with her while she was still on her period. i would just like to know if there are any risks that could arise from this.?

Any unprotected sex runs a risk of STD transfer, period or not.

If she has an std, then yes, there is a risk whether or not she is on her period.  But if she does not have an std, then you are fine.

There's no reason not to have sex when your partner has her period. It isn't an increased risk. It's just messy.

If you and your partner have both been tested for std's and don't have any, no risks just because of contact with her blood during her time of the month.
