      Generally, few couples have sex during menstruation, but a few couples who want to break taboos and are looking for excitement will try menstrual sex. So, what should you pay attention to during sexual intercourse during menstruation?

      You should pay attention to the following 5 points when having sexual intercourse during menstruation:

      1. When climaxing, it will promote Uterus Contraction, so if you engage in sexual intercourse in the first half of menstruation, it can cause heavy bleeding and stain the sheets.

      2. During sexual intercourse, male Condoms should be used ( female Menstrual secretions entering the male urethra can cause urethral irritation in men). In addition, due to blood, the lubrication in the vagina is greatly reduced, and intense sexual intercourse may cause inflammation and swelling of the vaginal opening of women.

      3. If you still have sexual intercourse as usual during menstruation, the shed uterine membrane will not only be unable to be discharged from the vagina, but may also be pressed back into the abdominal cavity, causing endometriosis.

      4. Some people have anal intercourse instead of normal intercourse during menstruation. If this is the case, special attention should be paid to hygiene issues.

      5. In the second half of menstruation, when the blood volume is less, there should be no problems. But if a woman is using a sanitary cotton swab, she should take it out first, otherwise it will be pushed deep into the uterus due to sexual intercourse and rot here, and the matter will be serious, so she should be more careful. 》》》 menstruation10behaviors that can cause menstrual cramps 

      6. Having sex during menstruation may lead to infertility. because sperm When the damaged endometrium meets the overflowing blood cells and even enters the blood, it can cause allergic immune cells during the period and stimulate the body to produce anti-sperm antibodies. This antibody can be present in female cervical mucus and serum. Once the sperm antibodies come into contact with sperm, it will trigger the body's immune rejection reaction, thus affecting the combination of sperm and egg.

      In short, it is best to avoid having sex during menstruation.
