Things to note when your period is delayed after sex

Sexual life is between boyfriend and girlfriend. A normal life. But recently a situation has emerged. That is, the menstrual period is delayed after sexual intercourse. Many female friends are particularly distressed about the delayed menstruation and do not know what method to use to treat it. They think that there is a problem with some aspect of their physiological function. The delayed menstruation is not as serious as we imagined. So, what should we pay attention to during sex to avoid delayed menstruation?

1. Keep the vulva clean during menstruation. Prepare a special basin and wash the vulva with clean warm water every night. It is better to take a shower during menstruation instead of taking a tub bath or a sitz bath. Sanitary napkins and paper should be soft and clean. It is best to use toilet paper, sanitary napkins and pads purchased from regular channels. Underwear should be changed and washed frequently, and scalded with boiling water after washing to reduce bacterial infection and blood stains to the vulva and inner thighs. It should also be dried in the sun. After defecation, wipe from front to back to avoid bringing waste into the vagina and causing inflammation.

2. Generally, adding rice wine to medicinal foods to help blood circulation, or Chinese herbal medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis will cause an increase in menstrual blood volume. Therefore, taking tonic medicine during menstruation is the wrong time. The correct golden period for taking tonic medicine is one week after the end of menstruation, before ovulation, when the body's metabolic rate speeds up and tonic medicine can be most effective at this time. Even the well-known Siwu Decoction can only be consumed after menstruation.

3. Before extracting a tooth, the dentist will ask you whether you are menstruating. You cannot extract a tooth during your menstrual period! Otherwise, not only will the amount of bleeding increase during the extraction, but there will also be a bloody smell in your mouth for a long time after the extraction, which will affect your appetite and lead to malnutrition during menstruation. Girlfriends, please keep this in mind.

4. When a woman has her menstrual period, the endometrium (the layer of tissue inside the uterus) peels off piece by piece. Sexual intercourse during menstruation can easily bring bacteria from around the vulva and perineum (the area between the vaginal opening and the anus) into the vagina, cervix and even the uterus. The bacteria grow and multiply where there is blood, causing inflammation on the spot, which is called endometritis. Not only does it cause fever and lower abdominal pain, but it also causes increased menstrual bleeding and prolonged menstruation. The second reason why you cannot have sex during menstruation is that it is easy to develop endometriosis.

Only by grasping the precautions of delayed menstruation after sexual intercourse can we help minimize the negative impact on the body. At the same time, try not to have sex during menstruation, otherwise it may affect the reproductive health of our female friends. We must hope that our male friends can be more understanding of this.
