Women all know that during menstruation, they should not come into contact with cold water, eat cold food, suffer from menstrual cramps, or engage in strenuous exercise. However, some women overlook the fact that they cannot have sex during their menstrual period and do so before the end of their period. Actually, the harm of having sexual intercourse during menstruation is still significant. Can having sexual intercourse during menstruation lead to infertility?
Having sexual intercourse during menstruation may lead to infertility, and having sexual intercourse during menstruation can easily cause infections. During menstruation, due to the shedding of the endometrium in the uterine cavity, a traumatic surface is formed on the surface. If sexual activity occurs, it is easy to introduce bacteria, causing them to retrograde and enter the uterine cavity, leading to infections in the uterus. This can easily lead to infertility. Wait until menstruation is completely clean for three days before having sex.
Therefore, it is not advisable to have sexual intercourse during the menstrual period, and it is also not advisable to come into contact with cold water or eat raw and cold food during the menstrual period, as it can easily induce dysmenorrhea. Moreover, during menstruation, it is not advisable to engage in strenuous activities such as swimming or running, which can easily lead to excessive menstrual flow. Avoid catching a cold during menstruation, as the immune system is low and once caught, it can easily lead to colds and other illnesses. It is also not advisable to take blood activating drugs during menstruation.
During menstruation, it is important to rest more and engage in appropriate exercise. It is also important to pay attention to menstrual hygiene, wash the external genitalia daily, change underwear frequently, and change sanitary pads frequently. In terms of diet, it is important to eat more protein rich and blood nourishing foods.
