The female reproductive system consists of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It is the primary responsibility for gestating the fetus and regulating the endocrine system. All parts need to cooperate closely to ensure the normal functioning of the endocrine and reproductive functions in the body. Therefore, every aspect is important, and you must understand these six points.

Six things that can harm the uterus

1. Failure to treat gynecological inflammation in a timely manner: Vaginitis, cervicitis, salpingitis, and other common gynecological inflammations in women. Although this type of disease is common in gynecology and does not cause significant discomfort to the body, if not treated in a timely manner, bacteria can pass through the cervix and enter the uterus, causing uterine damage.

2. There should not be too much cold food in terms of diet, and it is recommended not to eat cold food in terms of diet. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that women's constitution is yin and should not be excessively greedy. After cold foods enter the human body, they consume our yang qi, leading to the endogenous generation of cold pathogens and damaging the uterus. What we mean by cold food is not just low-temperature frozen food, but some foods that are essentially cold, such as watermelon, pears, mung beans, rock sugar, bitter gourds, etc. To develop good lifestyle habits, one should often drink warm tea leaves and ginger tea, and pay attention to keeping warm in their diet.

3. Not paying attention to sex: If you do not pay attention to hygiene during sex, it may lead to gynecological diseases such as vaginitis, cervicitis, salpingitis, and even external genital cancer, vaginal cancer, cervical cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and other cancers, thereby endangering women's health. Also, it is important to note that sexual activity should not be premature or chaotic, especially during special periods such as menstruation and childbirth. Daily cleanliness and moderate sexual activity are the top priority for taking care of the uterus.

4. Smoking: Studies have shown that smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of natural miscarriage, premature birth, and neonatal malformations in infants. There is also a certain correlation between smoking and infertility between genders. In terms of women's fertility, the chemical components in cigarettes can reduce estrogen production, directly affect ovarian health, and accelerate egg death. The toxic compounds in smoke can also cause pelvic inflammation, adhesions, ectopic pregnancy, accelerate menopause, and indirectly affect fertility.

5. Multiple pregnancies: Women giving birth is not a habit! As the risk of the uterus doubles every time a pregnancy is added, the incidence rate of the uterus will increase significantly if more than three consecutive pregnancies occur, and the risk of a second pregnancy is higher for a woman with a first cesarean section than for a natural birth. It is important to choose an appropriate time to conceive again after a cesarean section, otherwise there is a higher risk of premature or late uterine rupture.

6. Abortion: Abortion increases the chance of harm to the uterus, and the more abortions, the higher the probability of injury. Due to the inability of conventional abortion physicians to see the inside of the uterus, excessive force or improper operation during the use of instruments can cause harm to the uterus. The damage to the endometrium caused by curettage is not due to the absence of pain.

The reproductive system of women is composed of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It is the primary responsibility for gestating the fetus and regulating the endocrine system. All parts need to cooperate closely to ensure the normal functioning of the endocrine and reproductive functions in the body.
