Can I swim before my period?

On a hot summer day, swimming in cool water is a very refreshing thing, but women cannot swim at all times. It is well known that you cannot swim during menstruation, but many women are not very clear about whether they can swim before menstruation? In fact, swimming at an inappropriate time can cause diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease, so the editor recommends that you swim reasonably.

1. Don’t go swimming before, during, or during ovulation.

Many women know not to go swimming during their menstrual period, but don’t care about it on other days. In fact, the time to go into the water is indeed important - after the menstruation is completely over, the body's resistance will gradually recover, but it is still not the most solid time period, so it is more appropriate to consider going into the water one week after the menstruation ends.

The pelvic resistance is relatively weak one week before menstruation, so if you feel your physical condition is not good during this period, do not go into the water easily. In addition, you should be especially careful during the ovulation period, because at this time the vaginal secretions will be clearer and thinner in preparation for the entry of sperm, and the ability to resist bacteria will also be weaker.

2. Do not stay in deep water for too long

Usually the water temperature in deep water is lower and the water pressure is higher. The human body will produce a series of stress reactions, such as increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, muscle contraction, nervous tension, etc. Not only will it fail to eliminate fatigue, but the resistance will also decrease at this time. Many bacteria will take advantage of the "weakness" to enter the vagina and cause gynecological diseases such as vaginitis.

3. Use public items with caution

The changing rooms in public swimming pools are usually simple, so when changing clothes, try not to let your skin come into direct contact with the stool, and put the clothes you take off in a clean bag. If you want to sit by the pool, you might as well put a towel under it and avoid letting your skin touch the ground directly.

I believe everyone must know now that you cannot go to the swimming pool one week before your period. There are many people in the swimming pool. For your own health, the editor recommends not to go to the swimming pool frequently, otherwise it may cause infection. If you find yourself having abnormal vaginal discharge or other conditions, you need to pay attention and receive treatment in a timely manner.
