Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
No. Sexual activity during menstruation can lead to adverse consequences. First, the insertion of the penis can cause congestion in the female reproductive organs, resulting in increased menstrual flow and prolonged periods. Second, the male reproductive organ may introduce bacteria into the vagina. Menstrual blood is an excellent breeding ground for bacteria and other microorganisms, making it easy for bacteria to multiply and spread along the numerous small wounds and broken capillaries in the endometrium, potentially infecting the endometrium and even affecting the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs, thereby causing harm to the woman. Additionally, menstrual secretions entering the male urethra may also lead to the development of urethritis.
