Can you have sex even if you have uterine prolapse?

But it is not easy to reach orgasm. Because uterine prolapse is often accompanied by loose vaginal opening, bulging of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls, and weak perineal muscles, the friction and impact force of the penis on the "G-sensitive points" on the anterior vaginal wall and the sexual sensitive points of the vaginal opening are weak during sexual intercourse. Therefore, sexual pleasure decreases and orgasm is more difficult to induce. In addition, low back pain, irritation from vulvar eczema, and unbearable itching and pain affect rest and all lead to a decrease in sexual desire. Because the vaginal opening is loose, the pelvic floor muscles are weak, and the grip on the penis is poor, the man's sexual pleasure is also weakened, and it is more difficult to orgasm, but there is no obvious change in his sexual desire. Patients with uterine prolapse can have sex.

Precautions for intercourse with uterine prolapse

Pay attention to sexual hygiene

Because severe uterine prolapse may cause the uterus to prolapse outside the body, bacteria and viruses can easily cause infection when it is pushed back into the body. Therefore, when engaging in sexual intercourse, you must pay attention to the sexual hygiene of both parties and not be careless.

Maintain vaginal hygiene

After sexual intercourse, you need to clean your private parts immediately to avoid vaginal infection.

Be careful to avoid actions that increase abdominal pressure

During sexual intercourse, both parties need to be careful to avoid actions that increase abdominal pressure. In this case, the woman should be considered on top or in the side-lying position. For example, the woman lies on her side, or kneels with her hands on the bed, and the man enters from behind. This can reduce abdominal pressure and women can stop having sex at any time.
