Will sexual intercourse during menstruation prevent pregnancy? Beware of various diseases caused by sexual intercourse during menstruation
Some people believe that sexual intercourse during menstruation can achieve contraceptive effects, otherwise it not only prevents contraception, but also causes great harm to women, and even leads to lifelong infertility.
Can sexual intercourse during menstruation really prevent contraception?
The ovulation period of each woman is not fixed, and it is inevitable that there will be delays or advances. Some women's menstrual period and ovulation period do not match, and even some women's ovulation period is during the menstrual period. If safety measures are not taken during sexual intercourse during menstruation, it will also increase the likelihood of pregnancy. Wearing a condom during sexual activity not only provides contraception, but also prevents bacterial infections. During menstruation, women's resistance and immunity decrease, and sexual activity requires local cleaning. Otherwise, the probability of getting sick will increase. Under normal circumstances, sexual intercourse after 3 days of complete menstrual cleaning can reduce damage to the reproductive organs.
What are the hazards of sexual intercourse during menstruation?
1. Disturbance of menstrual cycle and female infertility
During menstruation, sexual intercourse and excessive excitement can cause congestion in the genitals, increase menstrual flow, and prolong menstruation. During menstruation, the endometrium is in a state of detachment and the cervix is slightly open. During sexual activity, bacteria are brought into the vagina. Menstrual blood provides a good living environment for bacterial growth. Bacteria can spread throughout the body along small wounds and ruptured blood vessels inside the endometrium, infecting the endometrium and even causing damage to pelvic organs and fallopian tubes.
In addition, when sperm combine with spilled blood cells in the damaged area of the endometrium, they will enter the bloodstream, causing women to produce antipsychotic antibodies, leading to female infertility. During sexual activity, uterine contractions caused by sexual impulses can push fragments of the endometrium into the pelvic cavity, leading to endometriosis.
2. It is easy for women to suffer from various diseases
The first line of defense for women is the vagina, which contains lactobacilli and produces a large amount of lactic acid, keeping the vagina in a weak acidic environment and preventing bacterial invasion. The second line of defense is the cervix, which contains mucus plugs that can prevent pathogenic bacteria from entering the uterine cavity. The third line of defense is the endometrium, which has many wrinkles and can prevent pathogenic bacteria from entering the fallopian tubes. When menstruation arrives, the endometrium is in a state of detachment, and attached bacteria will also flow out. At this time, the resistance and immunity are relatively poor, and if sexual intercourse occurs, it may trigger gynecological diseases..
