Swimming on the last day of menstruation

Women's menstruation usually lasts 3-7 days each time, which is normal within this time range. There are many things to pay attention to during menstruation. You should not eat cold or spicy food, otherwise it will affect the menstrual cycle. In addition, do not have sex or swim immediately after your period ends. At this time, the woman's vagina is open, which can easily cause bacterial infection. This article introduces this aspect, let’s take a look.

Women have short urethras and their vaginas are connected to the outside world, providing a convenient door for bacterial infection. In the swimming pool, many people walk around barefoot. If they have athlete's foot, the feet will stick to the ground and the edge of the pool. If someone sits on them, it can easily cause candidal vaginitis. Therefore, swimming should be avoided four days before and after menstruation.

Reminder: Women should not swim before or after menstruation

Life stress can also induce gynecological inflammation. You can't swim when you have inflammation.

Modern women are faced with high stress in life, tight work schedules, irregular work and rest schedules, and decreased resistance, which can all induce gynecological inflammation. The cervix has no nerve distribution, so even if early inflammation occurs, there is no discomfort, so many people do not pay attention to it. On the other hand, although the water in the swimming pool is circulated and disinfected, it is impossible for the water to be sterile. If the disinfection is not thorough in some places, there is no guarantee. Therefore, if you have early gynecological inflammation such as increased secretions, abnormal taste and color, or are undergoing treatment for inflammation, you must not swim. Otherwise, you will easily be infected by bacteria in the water, which will aggravate your condition.

No swimming within four days before and after menstruation

Also remember to avoid swimming during your menstrual period. It is best to swim 3 days after your menstrual period. Strengthen self-protection when swimming. Even if you do not have gynecological inflammation or are not menstruating, you should always pay attention when swimming and strengthen your awareness of self-health protection.

Public facilities are also prone to gynecological infections, so be careful

The changing rooms in public swimming pools are usually simple, with stools, toilets and lockers all shared, so they are inevitably contaminated with bacteria. Therefore, when changing clothes, women should try not to let their skin come into direct contact with the stool, and the clothes they take off should be packed in clean bags, especially underwear, which should be wrapped inside outer clothes. Don't be careless while swimming. It is often seen that many girls sit casually on the ground or platform by the swimming pool. The ground by the pool is often stepped on barefoot by people, and the mold on the feet is also stuck to the ground. If you sit on it casually, it is easy to cause candidal vaginitis. Therefore, when you sit by the pool, you might as well put a bath towel under you and don't let your skin touch the ground directly.

Women's physiological structure determines that they are more susceptible to infection and they cannot swim when they have symptoms of infection.

Swimming is prohibited for people with gynecological inflammation. From the physiological characteristics of women, the vagina is connected to the outside world, which provides the possibility of bacterial infection. Director Jia said that because women have such physiological structural characteristics, they should be especially careful when swimming, otherwise it is easy for the vagina to become infected and inflamed. In fact, for women, in addition to those who suffer from infectious diseases that prohibit swimming, such as skin diseases, eye diseases, etc., if women are menstruating or have gynecological inflammation, especially during treatment, they are absolutely not allowed to go into the water.

In addition, do not stay in deep water for too long: the water temperature in deep water is generally lower and the water pressure is higher, which will cause a series of stress reactions in the human body, such as increased heartbeat, increased blood pressure, muscle contraction, nervous tension, etc., which will not only cause fatigue, but also reduce the resistance. Most bacteria will take advantage of the "weakness" to enter the vagina and cause gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, which will have a definite impact on women's future pregnancy and physical strength. Therefore, when swimming, you should try not to stay in deep water for too long. Otherwise, there is a high risk of female endocrine disorders, amenorrhea, abdominal pain and other symptoms.
