Answer:
There is no harm. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:[Al-Baqarah 2:222]. During menstruation, meaning the exit of the menstrual blood, which is the private parts, the private parts are forbidden to him, but as for the rest of her body, he may take pleasure in it.

Yes. And he said: Do everything except intercourse in the private parts. Yes.
