For women who are planning to conceive, there is a preconception stage so that both husband and wife can regulate their bodies and achieve the best state for pregnancy, thus giving birth to a healthy baby. Recently, a woman who is in the preconception stage and suffers from a cold disease wants to know if she can still have sex if she catches a cold during preconception? So let's learn about it together below.
It is best not to have sexual intercourse during the preparation for pregnancy if you experience cold symptoms. Whether you are a woman or a man suffering from a cold, it is not recommended to have sexual intercourse because a cold can lead to a decrease in the body's immune system. In addition, medication is usually needed for treatment after a cold, and some components contained in the medication may affect the quality of sperm or eggs, thereby affecting embryo development and increasing the risk of developmental abnormalities.
When experiencing cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, fever, cough, headache, etc. during pregnancy preparation, it is necessary to seek medical attention in a timely manner. The cause should be identified through blood routine examination, and targeted and effective measures should be taken according to the cause. For example, antiviral drugs should be taken for viral colds, antibiotics should be taken for bacterial colds, etc. During the cold period, it is important to drink plenty of water. Drinking warm water can promote body metabolism and eliminate pathogens from the body through urine.
In terms of diet, it is necessary to eat some light and easily digestible foods, especially fresh vegetables and fruits, to supplement the body's vitamin C substances, thereby improving the body's immune and disease resistance ability, and helping the body recover health as soon as possible. Therefore, during the preparation for pregnancy, it is necessary to take measures to prevent cold and keep warm, add and reduce clothes in a timely manner, avoid rain and excessive fatigue, ensure sufficient sleep, and exercise moderately to effectively prevent the occurrence of colds.
