Generally, after ovulation, women enter the luteal phase, during which the ovaries are influenced by luteinizing hormone and secrete it to facilitate the implantation of fertilized eggs in the uterus. If the fertilized egg fails to implant successfully, the female endometrium will disintegrate. So, can we have sex during the luteal phase of pregnancy?
During the luteal phase of pregnancy, women can have sexual intercourse at any time outside of their menstrual cycle. However, when having sexual intercourse during the luteal phase, be careful not to apply too much force, otherwise it may cause luteal rupture and internal bleeding. During the luteal phase, girls' bodies mainly secrete progesterone, while women with regular menstrual cycles are generally more likely to become pregnant during ovulation.
The luteal phase is the period from ovulation in women to the day before the next menstrual cycle, during which the ovaries secrete a large amount of progesterone under the action of certain hormones in the corpus luteum, causing the endometrium to thicken and preparing for the smooth implantation of fertilized eggs. However, during this period, most women's bodies usually do not show any obvious signs.
Sexual intercourse during the luteal phase may not necessarily lead to luteal rupture, and the cause of luteal rupture is also unrelated to the luteal phase. Under normal circumstances, the corpus luteum will bleed slightly, but when the amount of bleeding is large, the pressure inside the corpus luteum will increase, causing spontaneous rupture. In addition, corpus luteum rupture may also be caused by severe impact on the lower abdomen, severe coughing, excessive force during defecation, or rough sexual behavior. In short, the causes of female corpus luteum rupture are quite complex.
