Can sexual intercourse be inserted during menstruation?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Can sexual intercourse be performed during menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

Sex between the two genders can be difficult the first time, largely because neither party has experience. Adding to this, the excitement and haste, as well as the tense atmosphere, can lead to the first sexual encounter failing, with the inability to penetrate. It may also be because the woman is a virgin, and the vaginal opening is covered by a hymen, which requires significant force to break through in order to achieve sexual intercourse. With more practice, one can gradually succeed.
