In many people's perception, condoms are only used to prevent pregnancy, and it is effective to wear condoms when you do not want to accidentally conceive. Many people believe that women do not have to worry about accidental pregnancy or wear condoms when having sex during pregnancy. Wearing condoms at this time is something many people consider redundant. However, in fact, doctors have pointed out that sexual life during pregnancy requires wearing condoms, which is beneficial for both the fetus and the mother.
Why is it good to wear condoms during pregnancy?
1. Prevent uterine contraction
Due to the presence of prostaglandins in male semen, entering the vagina of women can be absorbed by the uterus and cause contraction. Uterine contraction not only causes abdominal pain, but also causes premature birth, miscarriage, and so on.
2. Avoid infectious diseases
"If a man has bacterial, parasitic, or other viruses in his body and has sex without wearing a condom, the woman's body and fetus may become infected.". Infection can cause fetal development problems and even cause life concerns.
3. Avoid gynecological diseases
During pregnancy, women have weak immunity and are prone to bacterial invasion leading to vaginitis. In addition, the cervix becomes soft, and the probability of cervical infection increases. If you do not wear condoms during sexual life, various pathogenic bacteria on the penis can cause vaginal infections, which can harm the mother and fetus.
At what stage can you have sex during pregnancy?
During pregnancy, the time period during which sexual life can be performed is the second trimester of pregnancy, which is about 4 to 7 months of gestation. This stage of fetal development is stable, and sexual life will not be stimulated or impacted. Generally speaking, in the early stages of pregnancy, fetal implantation development is unstable, sexual stimulation causes uterine contraction, and is prone to miscarriage. On the other hand, when the uterus expands to a certain extent in the third trimester of pregnancy, sexual life can bring discomfort to the body, and it is easy for the uterus to contract due to mobility difficulties. Sexual life can stimulate the cervix and lead to premature birth. Therefore, early and late pregnancy are not suitable for sexual life. Do not overindulge yourself, which can cause harm.
Warm reminder: Pay special attention to having sex during pregnancy, as a slight carelessness can affect the fetus. Moreover, it is important to know that sexual activity is prohibited if the pregnant woman is unwell or the fetus is unstable, and excessive stimulation should be avoided during sexual activity to avoid problems caused by fetal injury. "If you feel unwell after sex, seek medical attention in a timely manner. After all, pregnancy is relatively special, and a slight carelessness can cause problems that harm the fetus and body.".
