Patient's question:
Yesterday was the third day of my menstrual period. Because my husband went to work and came back, my husband and I couldn't resist and had sex. Although I don't understand much, I know that it is not advisable to have sex during menstruation. What gynecological diseases can occur if you have sex during your period?Doctor's answer:
If there is sexual activity during menstruation, it may lead to intrauterine infection, pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, cervical inflammation, and other gynecological inflammatory diseases. It may also interfere with future fertility, causing infertility. Therefore, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited during menstruation, and self-control is essential. During menstruation, personal hygiene must be paid special attention to, using qualified sanitary napkins and changing them frequently to avoid inflammation. Wash the external genitalia with warm water every night, but do not wash the vagina. Gynecological diseases can be very serious, and patients are advised to seek timely treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care training, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition. The above answer is hoped to help you. Thank you.
