Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Having sex during menstruation increases the risk of infection. During menstruation, the cervix is slightly open, the endometrium sheds, blood sinuses open, and the body's immunity decreases. Sexual activity during this period is very likely to cause bacterial infections. The shedding of the endometrium during the menstrual period forms wounds, and the cervix is also in a slightly open state. Furthermore, due to the discharge of menstrual blood, the acidic environment of the vagina is diluted, and the self-cleaning ability of the vagina is weakened. Sexual activity during this period is prone to gynecological inflammation. It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene during menstruation to avoid affecting your health.
