How many days after menstruation is it harder to get pregnant when having sex?

Menstruation is a normal physiological cycle for women. Many female friends know that they can use the menstrual cycle to determine their safe period and ovulation period, and then take corresponding preparation and care measures for pregnancy or contraception. But there are still some friends who can't resist their physiological needs and have sex, and then worry about getting pregnant after having sex. So how many days after menstruation should one have sex to make it difficult to get pregnant? Let me tell you below.

How many days after menstruation is the safe period

The safe menstrual period is divided into the safe period before ovulation and the safe period after ovulation. The period from the last day of menstruation to the day before ovulation is the safe period before ovulation, and the period from the first day after ovulation to the day before the next menstrual cramps is the safe period after ovulation. Safe period contraception is a method adopted by many female friends. There is a popular saying that the safe period of menstruation is seven days before and eight days after menstruation. So how many days after menstruation is the safe period?

Generally speaking, the 7 days after menstruation is the safe period. The menstrual cycle is generally 28 days, calculated from the first day of menstruation to the day before the second menstruation. The ovulation period is in the middle of the menstrual cycle, which is the 14th day. If the egg is not fertilized, it can survive for 2 days, that is, on the 14th, 15th and 16th days. The survival time of sperm after entering the female reproductive organ is 3 days, and the rest of the time is the safe period. To be on the safe side (ovulation is advanced or delayed), push it back 5 days, so that the 7 days after menstruation is the safe period.

In addition, by observing the changes in vaginal secretions, you can also calculate the number of days after menstruation that are the safe period. Women's vaginal secretions change objectively with the contrasting dates of the menstrual cycle. During ovulation, the mucus becomes more and more, the vagina feels moist, the mucus becomes clear, and the mucus can be stretched into threads, which can be up to 10 cm long. The last day that this mucus lasts is usually the ovulation period, and no sexual intercourse is allowed 3-4 days before and 5-7 days after ovulation.

Many people think that having sex during menstruation is not a big deal, but they don’t know that having sex during menstruation is very harmful and may even lead to female infertility. I hope female friends will avoid having sex during menstruation to protect their health. Moreover, women's body resistance is weaker during menstruation, and sexual intercourse can cause inflammation, so sexual intercourse during menstruation is not recommended.
