Patient's question:
Can you have sex during your period? Can you have sex during your period?Doctor's answer:
Menstruation is still considered part of the menstrual period. Of course, it is not advisable to have sex. Suggestions: Sexual activity during menstruation can lead to many problems. (1) It can easily cause various inflammations, such as endometritis, fallopian tube inflammation, pelvic inflammation, and even infertility. (2) The uterine contractions caused by sexual activity during menstruation can push menstrual blood into the abdominal cavity, increasing the risk of endometriosis. (3) 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. (5) Sexual activity during menstruation can cause increased bleeding or prolonged bleeding duration. It is best to avoid this situation as much as possible. If it happens occasionally and there are no other abnormal symptoms, it is not a major issue—just wait and see, and avoid treatment for now. Don't worry. You're lucky this time, but frequent occurrences can lead to the problems mentioned above. Pay attention to avoiding this situation as much as possible.
