Is 7 days after menstruation a dangerous period?

In order to better enjoy the sexual process, many couples always choose to have sex during the safe period and do not take any contraceptive measures. In fact, it is a very dangerous behavior, because women are prone to ovulation and pregnancy during the period of excitement. The safe period and the dangerous period are not absolute. They are just medical concepts and there is no strict division. So, is the seven days after menstruation a dangerous period? The dangerous period is the fertile period (ovulation period), which is a few days before and after the ovulation day. To be on the safe side, we call the 5 days before and 4 days after ovulation, together with the ovulation day, a total of 10 days, the ovulation period. It is easier to get pregnant if you have sexual intercourse during the ovulation period. The dangerous period only refers to contraception. If you plan to have a child, you must arrange sexual intercourse during this period.

The egg's ability to conceive is only 24 hours after ovulation, while the lifespan of sperm is about 3-4 days. Ovulation can sometimes occur a few days earlier or later, so the dangerous period should be extended by a few days, from five or six days before ovulation to two or three days after ovulation. Ovulation usually occurs between two menstrual periods.

If menstruation comes every 28-30 days, then the ovulation day is around the 14th to 16th day of menstruation. In this way, you can roughly calculate the dangerous period (i.e. conception period, ovulation period)

In addition, there is a universal and simple quick calculation method: subtract 11 from the longest menstrual cycle, and subtract 18 from the shortest cycle, and the dangerous period is in between. For example, if menstruation comes every 28-30 days, 30-11=19, 28-18=10, the dangerous period is from the 11th to the 19th day of menstruation.

Using safe period contraception requires injection

To use safe period contraception, you must first accurately determine the ovulation period.

If it is not strictly mastered or used improperly, it can easily lead to failure.

At least one of the couple should be able to master the method of determining the ovulation period. If they cannot master this method, they cannot use safe period contraception.

Safe period contraception means stopping sexual intercourse during the ovulation period, which requires close cooperation from the man, otherwise it cannot be used. Of course, it is also possible to use external contraceptives during ovulation.

Contraception during the rhythm period is unsafe. Extrapolation is often unreliable. The time of female ovulation is affected by factors such as the external environment, climate, her own mood, and health status, which may result in delayed or early ovulation, and extra ovulation may also occur. The failure rate of safe period contraception is about 20%. Generally, people with irregular menstrual cycles are not suitable for using the safe period method for contraception.

There is no final conclusion on the longest survival time of sperm and eggs in the female reproductive tract, so the safe period cannot be calculated accurately.
