Postpartum vaginal relaxation is a common phenomenon, and its occurrence has a serious impact on women. We must reasonably prevent it, especially during postpartum sexual activity.
The Harm of Postpartum Vaginal Relaxation
1. Men pay great attention to a sense of control in their sexual life, but women pay more attention to a sense of accommodation. If the vagina is loose, both feelings will deteriorate, affecting the quality of sexual life for couples.
2. Vaginal laxity is prone to infection, especially if it does not adhere tightly to the vaginal wall. The vagina often opens and is prone to infection with bacteria.
3. Vaginal relaxation is easy to cause female stress Urinary incontinence, and women aged 45 are generally prone to this disease. Urinary incontinence may be caused by abdominal pressure increase when the bladder is full, laughing or shouting due to the expansion of the anterior vaginal wall or bladder.
4. Vaginal laxity and some gynecological diseases have occurred one after another. Vaginal laxity is prone to infection, especially if it does not adhere tightly to the vaginal wall. The vagina is often in a dental state and is prone to infection with bacteria.
5. Women's faces are starting to age. Vaginal relaxation can lead to premature aging and loss of color in women. According to statistics, 80% of postpartum women and 90% of women over 30 years old have some degree of vaginal relaxation. Spacious, dry, painful and sad, feeling low, and even leaking urine!
Causes of postpartum vaginal relaxation
During delivery, the fetal head enters the pelvis, compressing the muscles and muscle membranes at the bottom of the pelvis, as well as the related supporting structures. The ligaments supporting the uterus are also greatly pulled, especially in cases where delivery stops slowly and smoothly. Long term compression of the fetal head, combined with the assistance of forceps and fetal head absorbers for delivery, causes tearing of the muscles and muscle membranes at the bottom of the pelvis, and relaxes the related supporting ligaments
As for the mother who gave birth naturally, because the fetus gave birth through Vaginal delivery, the head diameter of the baby who gave birth normally was about 10 cm, and the vagina expanded to 10 cm during delivery (the normal vaginal diameter was 2.5 cm). After the pressure of the baby who gave birth, the vagina expanded significantly, the muscle and hymen marks were completely destroyed, and the elasticity decreased significantly. However, the vagina of the mother of the fetus delivered from Vaginal delivery changes, and the level of vaginal relaxation is different. But it does not mean that Natural childbirth is the culprit of vaginal relaxation. Because the muscles and ligaments of the pelvic cavity will be fully extended when the mother is in labor, the birth canal will be ready for the birth of the baby. Therefore, even mothers who undergo a cesarean section may experience vaginal relaxation.
