Miss Zhang, 25 years old, is a newlywed with happiness and harmony, but she has encountered unspeakable problems in her sex life. She often lacks adequate emotional communication and physical preparation before sexual acts, which causes her to experience intense discomfort. At first, Miss Zhang thought it was just a shared responsibility of the husband and wife, and she tried to endure the discomfort, but over time, the situation caused her great psychological stress.
Pain during sex, while common, should never be considered normal. In a particularly careful attempt, her husband tried very hard to avoid causing her pain, but unfortunately, Miss Zhang developed abnormal bleeding. This time, they realize that the problem may not just be in the way sex is conducted.
The couple decided to go to the hospital for help. After a detailed medical examination, the doctor found that Miss Zhang's abnormal bleeding was due to cervical cancer and not her husband's behavior. It was a shocking discovery, but fortunately, cervical cancer was detected at an early stage, and with timely surgery, Miss Zhang was successfully cured.
Why is modern people having less and less sex?
In recent years, there has been a downward trend in the frequency of sex among people aged 14 to 49 in the United States. The findings stem from a survey conducted last November by the Archives for the Study of Sexual Behaviour on sexual health and behaviour across the country. The survey results show that the proportion of men in this age group who have not had sex increased from 28.8% in 2009 to 44% in 2018, while that of women increased from 49.5% to 74%. The reason for this is that researchers believe that modern technology, such as mobile phones, computer games and social media, may have taken up what would otherwise be sexual time among young people.
However, this trend of less sex is not caused by a single factor. People of different ages and relationships exhibit different patterns of sexual behavior under the influence of multiple factors. In addition, it is noteworthy that the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) is on the rise, despite the decrease in sexual activity. According to the National Data Center for Population Health Sciences, the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases among adolescents aged 10 to 29 years is on the rise, and even syphilis, which had previously declined, is showing signs of a resurgence. In 2018, data released by the National Health Commission of China showed that there were 145,000 new cases of HIV/AIDS, and the overall incidence of HIV among young students was on the rise.
One of the main reasons for these phenomena is the lack of condom use. Many people see condoms only as contraceptives and ignore their important role in preventing sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV, syphilis and gonorrhea. Therefore, in addition to contraception, correct and consistent condom use is essential for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.
To prevent gynecological diseases, the key is to do these 4 things
The correct way to clean the genitals daily: It is recommended that women clean their vulva every day with running water. It is important to avoid washing the inside of the vagina, as the vagina has the ability to self-maintain acid-base balance, and excessive washing may disrupt this balance, thereby increasing the risk of gynaecological diseases.
Appropriate dress code: In order to maintain the health of your private parts, it is advisable to avoid wearing leggings for long periods of time. Leggings restrict air circulation, creating an environment for bacteria to multiply. Instead, opt for loose-fitting and breathable trousers.
Precautions during sex: Before and after sex, both partners should be encouraged to clean their private parts to reduce the spread of bacteria or pathogens. At the same time, avoid excessively frequent sex and stop immediately if any discomfort occurs.
Avoid sitting for long periods of time: Prolonged sitting can lead to a lack of ventilation in the private environment, which can lead to the growth of bacteria. It is recommended to get up and move for a few minutes every half hour, which is also great for overall health.
Seek medical attention if you have a problem: If you experience significant pain after sex, it is advisable to seek immediate medical attention to determine the cause. Pathological causes require prompt treatment, while non-pathological problems require attention to detail in daily life.
