So my boyfriend is away in another country for a while. I want to visit him in September from the 16-26 but I will have my period on 19-23. I want to visit him that week because it's my birthday and would like to spend it with him. Is there anyway and I can skip my period or have sex on it without it being gross?

I need advice on something other than the pills because they really screw up my stomach. I get horrible stomach pains whenever I take them. Thank you!!
