Patient's question:

Having sex during menstruation will absolutely not result in pregnancy, with a zero chance of conception! This is because women do not ovulate during this time. However, it is generally recommended not to have sex during menstruation, as it is not good for the body. Under normal circumstances, the vaginal secretions of a woman are acidic, which can kill foreign bacteria. But during menstruation, the vaginal secretions are neutralized by menstrual blood, becoming alkaline and creating a favorable environment for bacterial growth. When menstruation occurs, the endometrium sheds, leaving wounds in the uterus, and the cervix remains slightly open. Sexual activity can introduce bacteria, leading to inflammation of the reproductive organs.
