What are the harms of having sex during menstruation for women?

Many women have some sexual impulses during menstruation. The main reason is that in the first few days of menstruation, progesterone will be secreted in large quantities, so sexual desire will be enhanced. At this time, many female friends will have some impulses to have sex, but everyone knows that it is not good to have sex at this time. So what are the dangers?

If you have sex during menstruation, the following adverse consequences will occur: 1. Heavy menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstruation. Due to the excitement of both parties, the insertion of the penis will cause the female genitals to become congested, leading to increased menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual period.

2. The endometrium is infected. During sexual intercourse at this time, the male reproductive organ may bring bacteria into the vagina. Menstrual blood is a good culture medium for bacteria and other microorganisms. Bacteria can easily multiply and spread along the many tiny wounds and ruptured blood vessels in the endometrium, infecting the endometrium and even affecting the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs, thus causing unnecessary trouble to the woman.

3. Causes urethritis in men. Menstrual secretions entering the male urethra may also cause urethritis.

4. Cause infertility. Having sex during menstruation may cause sperm to meet the damaged endometrium and overflowing blood cells, and even enter the blood, which may induce the production of anti-sperm antibodies, leading to immune infertility and sterility. Having sex during menstruation can cause uterine contraction during sexual impulses, which can squeeze endometrial fragments into the pelvic cavity, causing endometriosis and leading to infertility.

Generally speaking, the chance of pregnancy during menstruation is smaller, but pregnancy is still possible. Also, during menstruation, women's body resistance is weaker and sexual intercourse can cause inflammation, so sexual intercourse during menstruation is not recommended.

During menstruation, women must pay attention to rest and not overwork. The body is generally weak at this time, so you need to pay attention to replenishing the nutrients needed by the body. But don't drink brown sugar water during these days, otherwise the menstrual blood will increase. You can drink more boiled water and relax to get through these days safely.
