  Misconception 1: Passed Gynecology Routine inspection and everything is OK

  Recently, a U.S. health agency surveyed: Most female right sexually transmitted diseases Nothing; only 1/4 of women know something about chlamydia (one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases) disease ), can lead to infertility; nearly half of women believe that no matter what physical problems they have, they can be detected by a routine physical examination once a year - unfortunately, this is far from the truth.

  The doctor's advice is: Don't place all your hopes on routine gynecological examinations. If you suspect that you have a sexually transmitted disease, even if the possibility is extremely slim, you should notify the doctor in time and tell him all the symptoms, such as: odorous discharge, painful urination, blister etc.

  Misconception 2: If you have an STD, you will definitely feel it

  This is a big mistake. Many sexually transmitted diseases (such as papillomavirus, chlamydial infection, herpes, etc.) often harm the human body silently. The patients themselves do not feel abnormal. Compared with male , this type of disease is more hidden in women's bodies and harder to detect in time.

  If not treated promptly, sexually transmitted diseases can affect other organs in a woman's body. For example: Papillomavirus may cause cervical cancer ;Chlamydia infection can cause pelvic inflammatory disease This leads to infertility. Don't take it lightly!

  Misconception No. 3: No ejaculation You won't get pregnant, and you won't get pregnant even if you have sex during menstruation.

  The contraceptive method of ejaculation is quite dangerous. The lubricating fluid (prostatic fluid) secreted by our lover during "foreplay" contains part of the semen. Moreover, don't place too much hope on a man's control ability. It is difficult to guarantee that everything will be foolproof before the orgasm. In fact, most men have semen leakage, and the quantity and activity of sperm are sufficient to cause pregnancy. If you ejaculate in the vulva without entering the vagina, it is not impossible to get pregnant. Motivated sperm may enter the vagina and continue toward the uterus. In addition, most people believe that there is no need to worry about pregnancy when having sex during menstruation. But the fact is: there is indeed a precedent for pregnancy caused by intercourse during menstruation.

  This is caused by irregular ovulation. Most women ovulate around the 14th day after the start of menstruation, but if the ovulation period is advanced and the sperm vitality is strong, pregnancy is likely to occur. The average number of sperm in a man's ejaculation is about 300 million. These sperm can survive in a woman's body for about 7 days. If a woman ovulates early, she is very likely to become pregnant. Therefore, you must take necessary contraceptive measures even during your menstrual period.
