Can a woman have intercourse when she’s on her period?



The term “great aunt” generally refers to a woman’s menstrual period. It is not recommended to have intercourse when a woman is menstruating, as the body’s immunity is weak and the cervix is open, which may lead to increased menstrual blood flow, gynecological inflammation, and infection of the male reproductive system.
