The hazards and precautions of sexual intercourse in early pregnancy

In life, many men or women have strong sexual desire, which does not stop even after women become pregnant. This causes many women to have miscarriages after having sex after pregnancy, which causes the harm of having sex in early pregnancy. So what are the harms of having sex in early pregnancy? At the same time, pregnant women must also take good care of themselves in life. After paying attention to these precautions, patients can effectively prevent miscarriage and avoid infection. Let's learn about it together below.

The first three months of pregnancy are usually called the early pregnancy. During this period, the placenta is forming, the fetal organs are differentiating and developing, and the secretion of progesterone to prevent miscarriage is not sufficient. Therefore, miscarriage or threatened miscarriage is most likely to occur. This is the time when you need to be most cautious and sexual intercourse is absolutely prohibited.

In fact, in addition to sex, kissing, hugging, caressing, etc. are also very good ways to enhance the relationship between couples, and they do not cause any harm to expectant mothers in the early stages of pregnancy. For example, the expectant father gently strokes the expectant mother's slender hand, gives a light kiss, rubs between the woman's legs, etc. These will not directly cause stimulation, so the chance of miscarriage is reduced, and the feeling between each other will be better.

Women can have sex during pregnancy, but it is generally recommended to have sex in the middle of pregnancy, as it is safer at this time. In the second half of pregnancy, the placenta has been formed and the pregnancy is relatively stable. Although miscarriage will not occur due to minor stimulation, sexual life should not be too frequent or too intense. The man's movements should remain steady, and even at the climax of sexual intercourse, the movements should be slow. It is also important to pay attention to the position of sexual intercourse. Couples can choose some appropriate positions that will not compress the abdomen. If it is too frequent or too intense, there is still a risk of miscarriage and premature rupture of membranes.

In the third trimester, which is the last three months of pregnancy, it is recommended to avoid sexual intercourse. This is because after 8 months of pregnancy, the fetus grows rapidly, the uterus enlarges significantly, and is very sensitive to any external stimulation. In our country, couples in the late stages of pregnancy are advised to stop having sex as much as possible to avoid accidents. In addition, after 36 weeks of pregnancy, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited because the fetus begins to descend and sexual intercourse causes the cervix to open, triggering bacterial infection, causing premature rupture of membranes, premature birth and intrauterine infection.

Therefore, pregnant women should pay attention to the following matters in life:

1. Don’t do strenuous exercise.

During pregnancy, pregnant mothers need to maintain proper exercise. However, in the early stages of pregnancy, the development of the fetus is unstable and the mother's physical condition is also unstable. At this time, the mother should not engage in strenuous exercise to avoid miscarriage.

2. Pay attention to personal hygiene.

For women who have just become pregnant, due to changes in their bodies and increased demand for nutrition, their metabolism will be very fast and their vaginal secretions will increase, making them vulnerable to bacterial invasion. Therefore, after entering the pregnancy period, pregnant mothers should pay special attention to their own hygiene, take a bath frequently, and change underwear frequently.

3. Dress appropriately.

In the early stages of pregnancy, pregnant mothers should wear soft and loose clothing, avoid wearing a waist corset, tight pants, or high heels. Otherwise, miscarriage may easily occur. Moreover, high heels can cause leg fatigue in pregnant mothers, which is not good for their health.

4. Do a good job of inspection.

If bleeding occurs in early pregnancy, it may be due to a variety of reasons such as ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, and fatigue. These are all things that you should not be careless about. You should go to the hospital for a check-up immediately. If a pregnant mother experiences bleeding or other miscarriage symptoms in the early stages of her pregnancy, after going to the hospital for examination to rule out ectopic pregnancy, she should follow the doctor's instructions and do a good job of protecting the fetus.

The harm of having sex in the early pregnancy is very serious, and there are many things that pregnant women need to pay attention to. Therefore, in the early pregnancy, you must have sex according to your physical condition. It is best to prohibit having sex in the first three months. After three months, when there is no abnormality in the pregnant woman's body and the fetus develops normally, you can have appropriate sexual life, but you must also pay attention to the way you have sex to avoid miscarriage caused by intense exercise.
