Is it okay to have sex during pregnancy? Ten months of pregnancy are the most difficult time for men, as their physical needs for sex often surge. Some say it's okay to have sex during pregnancy, while others say it's not. Women are often confused about whether or not it's permissible to have sex during pregnancy.
Actually, women don't have to completely abstain from sex during pregnancy; the timing and method are important. In the following six situations, sex is not advisable, and women should communicate more with their partners to discourage them from having sex.
1. Sexual intercourse is not recommended in early pregnancy.
We all know that the early stages of pregnancy are the most unstable period. Implantation is unstable, the placenta is gradually forming, and the fetus's organs are developing simultaneously. The secretion of hormones that protect the fetus from miscarriage is insufficient and has not yet formed a good protective effect. Having sex during this period can easily induce miscarriage; it's not worth the risk. Women with severe morning sickness or weak constitutions should absolutely avoid sex.
2. People with chronic illnesses should not have sex.
If a woman has a chronic illness before or during pregnancy, such as liver disease, kidney disease, or heart disease, the pregnancy will be much more difficult. Having sex during this pregnancy is extremely irresponsible to both her own health and the fetus. Even a single instance of intercourse can frighten the fetus, potentially leading to miscarriage or premature birth, and can also worsen any pre-existing conditions. Therefore, sexual activity should be approached with caution.
3. Women who have had a miscarriage should never have sex.
A woman who has had a miscarriage or experienced vaginal bleeding has scars on her uterus. Indulging in excessive sexual activity can increase the risk of miscarriage, putting both herself and the fetus at risk. Therefore, it's important to communicate more with your husband and not let the pursuit of intimacy cause you to miss out on the arrival of your little angels.
4. Sexual intercourse is not recommended if you have genital inflammation.
Whether a man or woman has a vaginal infection, they can transmit the bacteria to their partner through sexual intercourse. The risk of infection is even higher during pregnancy. These harmful bacteria entering the vagina can also cause infection of the amniotic sac, potentially leading to premature rupture of membranes. Therefore, sexual intercourse is not recommended for women with vaginal infections.
5. Avoid sexual intercourse with the placenta, regardless of its size.
The placenta is the fetus's "treasure trove" for absorbing nutrients. If the placenta and uterine wall are not close together and a tear occurs (placental abruption), or if the placenta is positioned too high, sexual intercourse should be avoided. In these situations, intercourse can cause uterine contractions, accelerating placental separation and potentially leading to miscarriage.
6. Abstaining from sex after the 8th month of pregnancy
After finally making it to eight months of pregnancy, with the baby's due date drawing ever closer, men start getting restless again, believing this period is safe for sex. However, the truth is that sex at this time can cause strong stimulation to the uterus, potentially triggering premature labor. Therefore, it's crucial to avoid sex during late pregnancy.
