Actually there is no sure way to masturbate. Because basically, every woman has its own sensitivity to the technique and how to masturbate. Every woman will try and do the most successful techniques to drive her to orgasm.
However, if you want to masturbate during menstruation, you should do it in a safer way to avoid infection or health problems in the vagina. Masturbation is not only done by touching or playing the clitoris with the finger. Some women can reach orgasm when masturbating without touching the genitals, namely by playing or fingering the breasts and nipples.
Masturbation during menstruation in women can also be done in various positions. Quoted from the health site Everyday Health, masturbation is generally done by opening the width of both thighs or even crossing and pinching each other's thighs in a rhythmic motion.
Masturbation by clamping both thighs keeps you away from the risk of infection, because there is no physical contact between fingers or sexual aids with the genital area that is vulnerable to infection.

Although masturbation during menstruation has its own benefits, such as relieving pain or abdominal cramps, but you are also at risk of being infected with bacteria and viruses if your fingers are not cleaned properly. If you are still unsure, you can consult further with a doctor or sexologist about masturbating during menstruation.
