What behaviors are harmful to the uterus? Women need to do a good job in uterine health care in order to reduce the occurrence of gynecological diseases. So what behaviors are harmful to the uterus? Below, the editor will introduce it to you.
1、 Not paying attention to diet
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that women have a yin constitution and should not excessively indulge in cold food. Cold and raw food entering the body can deplete our yang qi, leading to the generation of cold pathogens and damaging the uterus. The so-called cold food actually not only refers to low-temperature frozen food, but also includes some foods that are essentially cold, such as watermelon, pears, mung beans, rock sugar, bitter gourds, etc. Even after heating, these foods should be eaten seasonally and appropriately.
2、 Smoking
Medical evidence has shown that women who smoke are more likely to develop cancer, with an 80% higher risk of cervical cancer. The rate of moderate to moderate cervical epithelial cell carcinoma among smoking women is 3.5 times higher than that of non-smoking women. Long term exposure to second-hand smoke can increase the risk of cervical precancerous lesions in women by up to 7.2 times. Smoking among women of different age groups can cause different health problems. Women smoking during pregnancy can easily cause ectopic pregnancy and low secretion of breast milk; Unmarried women are prone to symptoms such as infertility, dysmenorrhea, and accelerated skin aging; Smoking in menopausal women can also cause osteoporosis or urinary incontinence.
3、 Sexual impurity
Not paying attention to hygiene during sexual activity can cause gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, cervicitis, cervical erosion, and salpingitis. It can even be an important pathogenic factor for vulvar cancer, vaginal cancer, cervical cancer, and fallopian tube cancer.
In addition, it is also important to note that sexual activity should not be too early or chaotic, especially during menstruation and postpartum sexual intercourse, which are important factors in the incidence of cervical cancer. During the first three months of pregnancy, sexual activity should be prohibited. Because the embryo is not yet firmly attached to the uterus at this time, it is a prone period for miscarriage. After three months of pregnancy, sexual intercourse should also be prohibited. Sexual intercourse stimulates uterine contractions, leading to miscarriage, premature birth, uterine bleeding, or puerperal fever. Especially in the last 4 weeks of pregnancy, sexual intercourse may cause fetal membrane inflammation, leading to risks such as premature rupture of membranes, premature birth, and postpartum infection. Sexual activity should be strictly prohibited.
4、 Indulge sexual activity during early pregnancy and before delivery
During the first three months of pregnancy, sexual activity should be prohibited. At this point, the embryo is not yet firmly attached to the uterus, making it a prone period for miscarriage. At this point, strong uterine contractions during orgasm pose a risk of interrupting pregnancy. Especially for threatened miscarriage women with a history of miscarriage, a small amount of vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, or those who are older and eager to have children, sexual intercourse should be prohibited.
