You can resume sex 1-2 days after your period is completely over, except for the menstrual period and the acute period of gynecological inflammation, the rest of the time you can have a normal sex life. The reason why you can’t have intercourse during menstruation is because menstruation is the period when women have the lowest resistance, and menstrual blood is the easiest to nourish bacteria, and the mouth of the uterus is open, which is conducive to the flow of menstrual blood and the passage of bacteria, so if you have sex at this stage, you will bring bacteria into the vagina, and bacteria will enter the uterus through the cervix and cause infection in the uterine cavity, which will have a great impact on your recovery. It can even cause inflammation of the endometrium, so sex is forbidden during menstruation. In addition to not having intercourse during menstruation, there are also special periods that need attention, that is, during pregnancy, in the early trimester and the late trimester are not allowed to have intercourse, and if the results of the maternity test are abnormal or if there is a pre-eclampsia, the entire pregnancy period is not allowed to have intercourse.
