  1. Excessive menstrual blood flow and prolonged menstrual period. During menstruation, sexual intercourse can be exciting, and the vaginal opening can be opened, leading to vaginal congestion, which can increase menstrual blood flow for female friends. Having sex at this time can damage the vagina and prolong menstruation.

  2. Endometrial infection. During menstruation, the cervix significantly dilates. If sexual activity occurs, certain bacteria can be introduced into the body through the vagina, leading to endometrial infection. During sexual intercourse during menstruation, bacteria can also be introduced into the vagina by the penis, and these bacteria can grow in large numbers in the vagina. If not careful, they are highly likely to spread to other areas.

  3. Dysmenorrhea. Male semen contains a large amount of prostatic fluid, which in turn contains a significant amount of prostaglandins. Entering the female body can directly stimulate the uterus, causing abnormal contractions and easily leading to dysmenorrhea.

  4. Infertility. During menstruation, sperm are likely to enter the bloodstream when they encounter blood cells during sexual intercourse. This will induce the production of anti sperm antibodies, which can easily lead to female infertility and immunological infertility.
