Is it easier to get pregnant during menstruation?

It is not easy to get pregnant by having sex during menstruation, but the possibility of pregnancy cannot be ruled out. At the same time, everyone should still be careful not to have sex during menstruation. This is still very dangerous because it is likely to cause various diseases in the female body. So now I will give you a detailed introduction so that female friends can also have a general understanding.

Reason 1: Having sex during menstruation can easily lead to infection of the reproductive system

When a woman has her menstrual period, the endometrium (the layer of tissue inside the uterus) peels off piece by piece. When women have sexual intercourse during menstruation, it is easy for bacteria from around the vulva and perineum (the area between the vaginal opening and the anus) to be brought into the vagina, cervix and even into the uterus. The bacteria grow and multiply where there is blood, causing inflammation on the spot, which is called endometritis. Not only does it cause fever and lower abdominal pain, but it can also cause increased menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstruation.

Reason 2: Having sex during menstruation causes endometriosis by causing the endometrium to flow back into the pelvic cavity

Under normal circumstances, the endometrium flows out with menstrual blood during menstruation. If you have sex during your period, when the woman's excitement reaches its peak, the uterus will contract. At this time, the endometrial fragments that have fallen off the uterine cavity can enter the fallopian tubes with the pressure of the uterine contraction, and then enter the abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity along the fallopian tubes. No matter where they fall, they will grow on the spot, causing endometriosis.

This disease can cause adhesions between the fallopian tubes, uterus and pelvic cavity, and can also cause hypertrophy of the ovarian surface and blood retention, which can not only destroy the normal development and growth of the eggs, but also affect ovulation, ultimately resulting in infertility. Therefore, sexual intercourse is not advisable during menstruation.

Therefore, the editor’s suggestion is that it is best not to have sex during menstruation, so as to reduce the harm to the female body. At the same time, everyone should still pay attention to it. During this period, everyone should pay more attention and develop good living habits. At the same time, during this period, everyone can also eat more nutritious foods to supplement nutrition.
