A member asked:
I have pco (not pcos). whenever my husband and i are intimate without contraception, it messes with my periods and they stop coming! any links to why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PCO: Polycystic ovaries lead to irregular periods. Contraception can be used to regulate them. Intercourse does not alter the menstrual cycle unless you get pregnant. Sex might trigger some spotting caused by anovulatory bleeding.
