Can you get pregnant if you have sex the day after your period?

During the pregnancy preparation period, you can only get pregnant by having sex after ovulation, so if you want to have a baby, you must also understand the ovulation period. The ovulation period can be detected through the symptoms of vaginal secretions, and can also be calculated based on the dangerous period and menstrual period. Generally, one day after the menstrual period ends and before the ovulation period, the chance of pregnancy is not very high, but unexpected situations can still occur. If men and women do not expect to get pregnant, it is still recommended to use contraceptive methods. The possibility of pregnancy cannot be ruled out just after the menstrual period because:

1. Some women have short menstrual cycles or irregular menstruation, and their ovulation period will be advanced, or even occur when the menstrual period is about to end. Because women's eggs are capable of fertilization within 24 to 48 hours, if men's sperm happens to enter the uterus and then enter the fallopian tubes, pregnancy is possible.

2. Because male sperm can survive in a woman's body for three to four days, if male sperm enters both fallopian tubes, pregnancy is possible. During the menstrual period, the female cervix is ​​relaxed, and with the discharge of menstruation, a safe passage between the inside and outside of the uterine cavity is created. At this time, sexual intercourse is likely to allow bacteria to enter the uterine cavity.

Can I have sex right after my period?

Many women think that they can resume sexual life after menstrual bleeding stops. In fact, this is harmful to women's reproductive health. When a woman's menstrual period just ends, there are still ruptured blood vessels and glands on the surface of her uterus, the small blood vessels are bleeding, the uterine wall has just begun to grow and develop, and the surface is not covered with epithelial cells. At this time, the wound in the uterine cavity is like the skin whose epidermis is scratched. Although it has stopped bleeding, it has not been completely reconstructed and repaired. This is the reason why the menstrual period seems to be over, but it is not actually over yet. If you have sex in a hurry at this time, it will cause uterine hematoma, which can cause uterine bleeding again and cause blood to be discharged from the vagina.

Secondly, the cervix does not close completely shortly after the menstrual period ends. The blood sinuses will not heal soon and the body's resistance is weak, so sexual intercourse at this time can easily cause gynecological diseases. It is recommended to have sex three days after the menstrual period is over, maintain good hygiene in the living environment of couples, and reduce the occurrence of gynecological diseases. If the menstrual cycle is regular, the ovulation period refers to the five days before and four days after ovulation, plus the ovulation period, a total of ten days. The other days belong to the dangerous period, but the dangerous period is not absolutely safe. If you do not want to get pregnant temporarily, it is recommended to take good contraceptive measures.
