Fair warning this post mentions SA and blood and sex under the age of 18. So my first time have PIV was being raped by my bf in 9th grade whom was a 12th grader. At the time I was on my period and after he assaulted me and saw the sheer amount of blood he verbally assaulted me. Well now I’m with someone new who is ABSOLUTELY amazing. He’s the most perfect man I could ever ask for but we’re getting intimate and due to me being on my period and him still being interested in being intimate with me despite my period how do I push past the mental barrier and heal through the fact that someone else hurt me and know that my new partner won’t hurt me the same way. He’s perfectly fine waiting until I’m off my period but I honestly physically want to be with him but freeze up every time we are about to actually go and do anything.

Hi I’m looking for a good tampon brand that’s as clean and good for the body as possible as I’m trying to maintain my vaginal health as much as possible and don’t trust the tampax brand nor am I able to use discs/cups because of how uncoordinated I am and will most likely just end up screwing them up.
