Can you get pregnant if you have sex during your period and use a condom?

Patient's question:

I am already 23 years old this year. I haven't left yet, and I am currently living with my boyfriend. During the recent menstrual period, we had sex, but my boyfriend used a condom. I would like to know if this situation could lead to pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

During the menstrual period, women have special physiological conditions. Generally, sexual activity during this time does not lead to pregnancy, and since contraception is used, there is no need for concern in this regard. However, sexual activity during menstruation is very harmful to women's health. It may lead to infections and could also cause endometriosis, which may interfere with future fertility. Therefore, it is essential to avoid sexual activity during menstruation. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
