At age 52, if you are not menopausal, you still need to use contraception. Although a woman is 52 years old, if she still has normal menstrual periods, it is possible that her ovaries are still ovulating. At this time, contraception is still needed for sexual intercourse. When a woman has sex during ovulation, the chances of conception are very high. 52-year-old women’s ovaries ovulate, and the meeting of sperm and egg will form a fertilized egg, which means that there is a possibility of causing pregnancy. Women in this age group can take measures to prevent pregnancy such as condoms or placing a birth control ring. However, for women who are menopausal at the age of 52, the absence of menstruation means that they are not ovulating, so they can have sex without contraception, but it is still recommended to use condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If there are symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding, it is necessary to go to the gynecology department of the hospital in time.
