Um... No, thank you. First of all, it cost money, second of all... there is no second of all. BUT: The body releases a bonding hormone called oxytocin, before and during orgasm. Regarded as natural opiates, these hormones reduce the perception of pain by increasing the pain tolerance threshold. A study by famed sexologist, Beverly Whipple states that "when a woman masturbates to orgasm, both the pain tolerance threshold and pain detection threshold increase “significantly by 74.6% and 106.7% respectively." Apart from this, another natural opiate-like hormone released during orgasm is endorphin. The prime effect of this hormone is that they create a positive perception of the environment besides decreasing pain. So... no "switch off" period pain device is needed.
