What is a period and why do we have them?
Simply put: A period is when a woman’s body releases tissue it no longer needs. This tissue comes from the uterus, which is where a baby (fetus) can develop in the female body. Every month or so, the uterus lining gets thicker to prepare for a fertilized egg if the woman becomes pregnant. If the egg doesn’t get fertilized, that lining is released from the body as blood through the vagina. This monthly process is called menstruation or a period.

What's the menstrual cycle?
The menstrual cycle is the monthly series of changes a woman's body goes through in preparation for the possibility of pregnancy. Each month, one of the ovaries releases an egg — a process called ovulation. At the same time, hormonal changes prepare the uterus for pregnancy. If ovulation takes place and the egg isn't fertilized, the lining of the uterus sheds through the vagina. This is a menstrual period.

The female body during menstruation resistance is weak, sexual intercourse can cause inflammation
Women, menstrual cramps, endometrial (uterine inside layer of tissue that) a piece of land down the strip off. Female sexual intercourse during menstruation, it is easy to vulva and perineum (between vagina and anus area) around the bacteria into the vagina, cervix into the uterus as well as bacteria in the blood and the place just the growth and reproduction, local inflammation, called endometritis, not only fever, lower abdominal pain, and increased menstrual bleeding, menstrual period be extended. If the infection of bacterial virulence is very strong, but also through the endometrium outside the lymphatic spread to the uterus into the pelvic cavity, causing acute inflammation accessories (including the fallopian tubes and ovaries) and pelvic peritonitis, it is not only a fever and abdominal pain may also be affect future fertility. Once the inflammation of the fallopian tube adhesions can occur, while in luminal occlusion, the sperm can not can not become pregnant.
Menstruation AND PREMENSTRUAL ISSUES

Pathogen access to upper female tract
Menstruation, sperm, and trichomonads help transport pathogens into the salpinx.
• Infections occurring around menses tend to be GC rather than CT. Menstrual regurgitation may carry sloughed endometrium with attached GC or intracellular CT organisms that proliferate in tubal epithelium or on peritoneal surfaces.
• Human sperm: bacteriospermia is a cause of infertility in men; 66% to 75% of men who tested positive for GC were asymptomatic. Sperm are vectors. Cervical mucus is an effective mechanical and immunologic barrier between flora of the vagina and upper tract. Yet organisms attached to sperm can easily traverse mucus column. Sperm migrate through menstrual plasma but not during the luteal phase or through cervical mucus of pregnancy. Sperm is intimately associated with cytomegalovirus, Toxoplasma, U. urealyticum, and Chlamydia.
• Motile trichomonads are another transporter, ascending from the vagina to the fallopian tubes, carrying additional invaders. Key observation: trichomonads are never isolated from human beings when heavy bacterial contamination is absent.
Dr. Muhammad al-Baar said, speaking of the harm that may be caused to the menstruating woman: The lining of the uterus is shed during menstruation, and the uterus is scarred as a result, just like when the skin is flayed. So it is vulnerable to bacteria and the introduction of the bacteria that are to be found at the tip of the penis poses a great danger to the uterus.
Wow, the National Institutes of Health, March of Dimes, and Mayo Clinic are all the same as Wikipedia? Now, why didn't all of the people who worked there think of that before?
Sloughing off the uterine lining isn't 'flaying'.
insulting picture of a woman’s body functions as proof a woman’s body as an occasion of sin, and inferiority.
This guy al-Baar is not a medical doctor.
He got his doctorate in law.
Born in Aden, Yemen, on Dec. 29, 1939. He received his MBBS degree (with honours) from Cairo University (1964) and his Diploma of Internal Diseases, Cairo University (1969). He received membership in the Royal Colleges of Physicians (London, Edinburgh, and Glasgow) in February 1971 and became a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London in 1994. He developed interest in bioethics from an Islamic perspective and has participated in meetings and discussions on Islamic jurisprudence and ethics, including those of International Islamic Fiqh Academy, Jeddah, Islamic Fiqh Academy in Mecca and the Islamic Organization for Medical Sciences (IOMS), Kuwait. He serves as Director of the Medical Ethics Center, International Medical Center in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and is an internal medicine consultant and advisor of the Islamic Medicine Department, King Fahd Center for Medical Research, King Abdul-Aziz University, Jeddah. He authored numerous publications on bioethical questions, including organ transplantation, stem cell research, sperm banks, AIDS, artificial insemination, abortion, contraception, embryology, brain death, and prophetic medicine.
Also, for the umpteenth time no one, ever, has denied the fact you can contract an STD, or get pregnant for that matter, during your period.
Don't know why you think anyone is disputing that information.
What exactly is it you're trying to say?
I'm saying stop crawfishing and making excuses for your piss poor research, using non medical people claiming they are doctors, using websites that don't even make sense when you try to read them as far as how words are put together. Also stop changing the goal post, suddenly claiming things written were an analogy when it wasn't, and generally being an untrustworthy person.
How is anyone supposed to respect what you say when you do everything under the sun to keep from realizing you made a mistake?
That's not the end of the world you know, and I have a lot more respect for someone who doesn't act like because they don't know something, no one else does, and isn't willing to look at legitimate information or real time accounts, and learn from it.
I have searched online for anyone claiming sex during menstruation gives you scars. Oh and BTW in case anyone was wondering, period sex doesn't increase your chance of endometriosis: https://www.health.com/news/does-period-sex-raise-your-risk-of-endometriosis
The only place I found where flaying and period sex were discussed together was a Muslim website: https://islamqa.info/en/answers/43028/the-reason-why-it-is-forbidden-to-have-intercourse-with-ones-wife-when-she-is-menstruating-or-bleeding-following-childbirth and the doctors on that site are these guys:
1) Dr. Muhiy al-Deen al-‘Alabi - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Nasiruddin_al-Albani, an Albanian Muslim scholar, not a medical doctor.
