Patient's question:
Female, 48 years old, don't know how, for the past half month, she has been experiencing chest tightness and shortness of breath. In the afternoon, she feels very irritable and hot. Her sleep is not very good either, and she lacks energy. After examination, it was said that she is experiencing menopause. Please ask: How should contraception be used after sexual activity during menopause?Doctor's answer:
Although you have reached menopause, you have not yet gone through menopause. As long as you haven't gone through menopause, you will still go through it. If you haven't had an IUD inserted, it is recommended to use condoms during intercourse for breastfeeding. Maintain good daily habits, engage in regular physical exercise, and try to eat less extremely cold and spicy foods. Pay attention to hygiene in the external genital area. Both partners should wash the external genital area before and after intercourse. I hope my explanation is helpful to you.
