Having sexual intercourse increases the chance of bacteria invading the female vagina. So before having sex, it is recommended that both men and women clean their genitals, especially male friends, as inflammation can also be transmitted to women. If bleeding occurs after sexual intercourse, women must take it seriously, identify the cause of the bleeding, and then receive targeted treatment. Sexual activity is prohibited during the treatment period. So what's going on with bleeding after having sex? What are the precautions during pregnancy preparation?
What are the reasons for bleeding after sexual intercourse
1. Exogenous reproductive tract injury
Hymenoplasty injury. The most common type of bleeding is when the hymen ruptures during the first sexual intercourse, which usually occurs during sexual intercourse. During sexual intercourse, there may be pain and bleeding, but the amount of bleeding is usually not significant. If the damage is not severe, the bleeding phenomenon will stop soon.
2. Inflammation of the external reproductive tract
Pelvic inflammatory disease. Pelvic inflammation can cause congestion in the pelvic cavity. If the endometrium is congested and swollen, sexual intercourse can cause the congested endometrium to become infected, but this opportunity is rare.
3. External malignant tumor
Cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is one of the common causes of bleeding after sexual intercourse. Most cervical cancer patients have no discomfort symptoms in the early stages, and bleeding after sexual intercourse may be the only symptom of early cervical cancer.
4. Having sexual intercourse after menstruation or experiencing menstrual abnormalities
If encountering menstrual abnormalities, it is believed that the menstrual cycle is already clean, resulting in premature sexual intercourse that causes uterine contractions under sexual stimulation, and residual blood in the uterine cavity is discharged from the vagina. In addition, a small number of women may experience bleeding during ovulation. If no abnormalities are found in the vagina and cervix during gynecological examination, the above possibilities should be considered for this type of bleeding.
Precautions during pregnancy preparation
1. Ensure rest and sleep: Ensure sufficient sleep every day, otherwise your immune system will be affected and hormone secretion will be disrupted, which is not conducive to pregnancy. Let yourself have a relaxed mood. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you can try practicing yoga, which can not only relax your mind but also exercise your body.
2. Quit smoking and drinking: The harm of alcohol to sperm has long been known, and various harmful substances in tobacco can also kill sperm. Drinking and smoking should be stopped at least 3 months before conception.
3. Calcium supplementation: Calcium is the main component that forms bones and teeth, and is an essential and widely used substance during fetal development. Foods high in calcium include milk, soy products, poultry and eggs, seafood, bone broth, etc. Calcium supplementation should start when preparing for pregnancy, with a daily requirement of around 800 milligrams of calcium.
The female reproductive organs are in an open state, so every woman will have inflammation to varying degrees. Sexual activity after marriage can exacerbate inflammation and infection, so women can receive anti-inflammatory water during menstruation, which is very helpful in removing inflammation. At the same time, the diet should be light and avoid various spicy foods, which can affect the gastrointestinal tract and worsen gynecological diseases. The above is an introduction to what causes bleeding after sexual intercourse, hoping to help everyone.
