Patient's question:
I usually don't have much sexual desire, but every time I'm about to have my period or during my period, my sexual desire becomes extremely strong. Could you please tell me if sexual arousal during menstruation can lead to endometriosis? How should I control myself?Doctor's answer:
Menstruation is strictly prohibited during coitus to avoid causing gynecological inflammatory diseases. The phenomenon you mentioned will not lead to endometriosis, as sexual arousal during menstruation is normal due to hormonal changes. It is recommended to pay attention to external genital hygiene during menstruation, change clothes, toilet paper, and underwear frequently, and avoid catching colds or feeling cold. Consume warm, easily digestible, and nutritious foods, while avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods. Rest more. Avoid strenuous exercise during menstruation. Women with gynecological conditions can use folk remedies as supplementary treatment while undergoing professional treatment. It is crucial to avoid extreme hunger or fullness in daily diet and never overeat or binge drink.
