Patient's question:
Will a woman get pregnant if she has sex during her period?Doctor's answer:
Not pregnant; sexual intercourse during menstruation can easily cause infection. The dangers of sexual intercourse during menstruation are significant: (1) It can easily lead to various inflammations, such as endometritis, fallopian tube inflammation, pelvic inflammation, and infertility. (2) The uterine contractions caused by sexual intercourse during menstruation can push menstrual blood into the abdominal cavity, increasing the risk of endometriosis. (3) During sexual intercourse during menstruation, some sperm and other components of semen may enter a woman's bloodstream through small blood vessel tears, stimulating the immune system to form anti-sperm antibodies and leading to immunological infertility. (4) Various blood-borne infectious diseases can be transmitted between partners. (5) Sexual intercourse during menstruation can cause increased bleeding or prolonged bleeding duration.
