Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Menstruation? Causes? Easily lead to which diseases? First question supplement: Which diseases? Can be examples?Doctor's answer:
If sexual intercourse occurs during menstruation, the following adverse consequences may arise:1. Due to mutual excitement, the insertion of the penis will cause congestion in the female reproductive organs, leading to increased menstrual flow and prolonged periods.
2. During menstrual intercourse, menstrual secretions entering the male urethra may also cause urethritis.
3. Sexual intercourse during menstruation, due to uterine contractions during sexual arousal, may push fragments of the endometrium into the pelvic cavity, causing endometriosis and potentially leading to infertility.
4. During menstrual intercourse, sperm meeting the broken endometrium and blood cells—sometimes even entering the bloodstream—may trigger the production of antisperm antibodies, resulting in immunological infertility or sterility.
5. During menstrual intercourse, the male reproductive organs may introduce bacteria into the vagina. Menstrual blood is an ideal breeding ground for bacteria and other microorganisms, which can easily multiply along the numerous small wounds and broken capillaries in the endometrium. This can lead to endometrial infection and even affect the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs, causing unnecessary complications for the female.
For males, blood entering the urethra increases the risk of urethritis.
Therefore, for the health and fertility of both partners, menstrual intercourse should be avoided under all circumstances.
