What are the effects of cohabitation during menstruation on a couple?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What are the effects of having sex during menstruation for a couple?

Doctor's answer:

Intercourse during menstruation can easily lead to infection due to the relaxation of the cervix.
Advice: If intercourse during menstruation causes infection, leading to conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease or endometritis, it can be harmful to pregnancy. Therefore, it is not recommended.
Symptoms caused by polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) should be treated promptly with oral contraceptives. Contraceptives contain estrogen, which can help improve and treat PCOS. Maintain a balanced diet with plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits.
