I. Want. It. Bad

So I have never been a fan of sex while on your period. The thought of it alone made me sick 😷 But I have friend who tell me I'm dramatic and that sex while in the shower during your period is the best . . . 
So I decided to try it with my fiancé because my hormones are CRAZY lately and I really REALLY had an itch and needed to scratch. 
So we jumped into the shower and gave it a go. To my horror ( as I expected ) when we finished it was a blood bath ( literally ) . I was so embarrassed and cried ! It was the most horrific and traumatizing experience in my life 😭 
Being the sweet man that he is, he told me it was ok and that it was normal. He wasn't grossed out or mean about it ( which I totally appreciated ) 
Has anyone else come across this? And what are some ways we can enjoy sex while on my period? 
(Mind you, I was on the second to last day before my period was to end and it was light bleeding. ) Where did it all suddenly come from ?
