Managing menstrual cycles while maintaining a consistent work schedule can be a challenge for webcam models. Participants in this discussion share their personal strategies and experiences to ensure minimal disruption to their work due to menstruation. Below are some of the methods and insights shared by forum members:
- Using soft cups for clean sex and to avoid taking breaks from camming. These can be worn for up to twelve hours, depending on flow, and do not obstruct the vaginal canal.
- Altering birth control usage to skip periods or reduce frequency, with medical advice and approval.
- Using tampons with the string tucked in or cut, and employing camera angles to maintain the illusion of penetration without actual insertion.
- Experimenting with menstrual cups and sea sponges for their ability to be used discreetly during performances. However, comfort and effectiveness can vary greatly between individuals.
- Opting for non-penetrative shows or focusing on other types of performances during menstruation, such as topless shows, hitachi shows, anal play, or non-sexual content like yoga or games.
- For those experiencing heavy cramps or discomfort that impedes their ability to perform, taking the first few days off or reducing the workload is common.
- Some models offer specialized "red shows" for clients into menstruation-related fetishes, with clear communication and boundaries set beforehand.
- Practical advice for managing potential leaks includes using dark-colored toys and bedding, having cleaning supplies on hand, and employing tricks like wetting legs to temporarily stop flow for short periods.
Overall, the discussion highlights a range of adaptive strategies and personal preferences, emphasizing the importance of comfort, safety, and open communication with clients regarding performance capabilities during menstruation.
