Patient's question:
Condition Description (Main Symptoms, Onset Time): What diseases can occur if sexual intercourse occurs before a woman's menstrual period ends?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there is a possibility of infection. During the menstrual period, the endometrium forms wounds, and the immunity of various systems decreases, 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 the implantation of endometrium and resulting in endometriosis. Endometriosis may affect pregnancy, so it is necessary to avoid sexual intercourse during the menstrual period.
