Patient's question:
A few days ago, my wife had her period, but at that time, I hadn't had sex with her for a long time, so I had sex with her anyway. However, a few days later, my wife felt a little uncomfortable in her vagina.Doctor's answer:
Sexual activity during menstruation does not lead to pregnancy. Intercourse is prohibited during menstruation because the endometrium forms wounds during this period, and the immune systems of various systems decline, making it easy to cause inflammatory infections such as endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and adnexitis. Additionally, during female sexual arousal, uterine contractions may cause menstrual blood to flow back into the pelvic cavity, leading to endometrial implantation and endometriosis. Endometriosis may affect fertility, so intercourse should be avoided during menstruation. Intercourse is not possible during menstruation. If necessary, manual stimulation can be used to help the husband relieve himself.
