I want sex but on my period ☹️

I got my period 5 days ago literally right after I had sex. I’m on bc so I’m supposed to take my new pack on Saturday...but I’m so into it I want sex now! I’m the past we have had sex when I’m on my period but yesterday my boyfriend said he wasn’t in the mood because I was on it. There will be weeks where we will only do it once a week and there’s other weeks where we’ll do it every other day. For the past 4 months we really haven’t waited a whole week without sex. But I’m just totally worried as to why we aren’t doing it yet. It’s been 4 days but I’m inpatient. He always tells me not to worry as we’ll end up doing it but I always end up worrying 😕 Does this happen to couples?
