Is it good to have sex during menstruation?

It is very normal for couples to have daily sex, but when women are menstruating, many men cannot control their sexual desire and want to have sex with their partners. Although we have no way to interfere with the sexual life between couples, is this behavior good for both parties? When women have their period, they will have vaginal bleeding. Can they have sex at this time?

Chinese medicine believes that during menstruation, a woman's body resistance will decrease, bacteria can easily invade, and menstruation sex may cause symptoms such as endometritis and uterine ectopic. Having sex during menstruation is very likely to cause infection. Because the cervix is ​​open during menstruation, the endometrium is shed to form menstruation.

During sexual intercourse, pathogens can easily invade the open cervix and reach the uterus. Menstrual blood is a good culture medium for bacteria. The low resistance of women during menstruation is also one of the reasons why they are prone to infection. Once infected, women are prone to endometritis, endometriosis, adenomyosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc., which seriously endanger women's health and even lead to infertility.

Sex during menstruation should be avoided. Appropriate sex life is still possible, but you should pay attention to the following points:

1. Try not to choose the first two days of your period when you have heavy bleeding.

2. Beforehand, the man should clean his genitals.

3. When having sex during menstruation, men should use condoms, be gentle, and keep the duration as short as possible.

4. After having sex during menstruation, the woman should immediately rinse her vagina with clean water.

5. Although having sex during menstruation generally does not lead to pregnancy, from a hygiene point of view, it is better to use condoms.

To sum up, it is recommended that women do not have sexual intercourse during menstruation. Although everyone has sexual impulses, if we really care about our sexual partners, we should try our best to take care of our partners' physical condition during the menstrual period, and not cause harm to our partners' bodies because of our own indulgence.
