Will having sex during menstruation lead to infertility?

Regarding whether having sex during menstruation will affect infertility, a few female friends have limited knowledge about this aspect in their daily lives. We do not recommend having sex during menstruation. Everyone knows that menstruation is to expel lochia from the female body, which is the dirtiest thing. If sexual contact occurs at this time, it is likely to lead to bad consequences and cause great harm to your body. Let’s take a closer look at the question of whether having sex during menstruation will lead to infertility.

During the menstrual period, women's body resistance is weak and the pelvis is congested. Having sex during menstruation is prone to infection and endometriosis may occur. In addition, when sperm enters the female blood, it is easy for her to produce anti-sperm antibodies, which may affect future conception. Therefore, having sex during menstruation has no benefits and should be avoided as much as possible.

Having sex during menstruation can easily bring foreign bacteria into the uterus and deep into the vagina. Causes endometritis and deep vaginitis! Furthermore, excessive movement of the penis can easily cause the endometrium to fall off.

There are many disadvantages to having sex during menstruation. This is because the physiological barrier function of the reproductive tract is weakened during menstruation. Once sexual intercourse occurs, it is easy to damage the reproductive tract and cause bacterial infection, inducing gynecological diseases such as cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease.

1. Heavy menstrual blood flow and prolonged menstrual period.

During sexual intercourse, since both parties are in an excited state, the insertion of the male penis will cause the female genitals to become congested, leading to increased menstrual volume and prolonged menstrual period.

2. The endometrium is infected.

During sexual intercourse during menstruation, the male reproductive organs may bring bacteria into the vagina. Menstrual blood is a good culture medium for bacteria and other microorganisms. Bacteria can easily multiply and spread along the many tiny wounds and ruptured blood vessels in the endometrium, infecting the endometrium and even affecting the fallopian tubes and pelvic organs, thus causing unnecessary trouble to the woman.

3. Causes urethritis in men.

For men, menstrual secretions entering the male urethra may also cause urethritis.

4. Produce sperm antibodies, leading to infertility.

When women are menstruating, due to damage to the reproductive tract mucosa, if they have sexual intercourse, it will be easy for sperm and its antigens to enter the blood, and sperm will come into contact with immune cells, which will open the door for ASAb (anti-sperm antibodies) to be produced in women's bodies.

Once this antibody is produced in a woman's body, it will cause the sperm injected into the body to agglutinate during sexual intercourse, making it impossible to conceive. This condition is called immune infertility. Clinical investigations have found that infertility patients related to immunological factors account for approximately 10%-30% of the total infertility cases.

The above is what I want to introduce to you here today about whether having sex during menstruation will cause infertility. Since we are already well aware of its harm, we hope that female friends will cherish their bodies and not bring irreparable regrets to their bodies because of momentary impulse. Try to avoid it. I hope the above content is helpful to everyone.
