These are two of the many hoaxes and urban legends that still revolve around sex and the risk of pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases.
It’s difficult to understand why, but there is a common belief that sperm die in water. In reality, having sex in the water is the same as doing it anywhere else. If you don’t want to renounce the pleasure of doing it in the middle of the ocean, it’s best to just use a contraceptive.
A woman is generally less fertile during her menstrual cycle, but the possibility of pregnancy still exists, so it’s better not to risk it! In case of an irregular or particularly long cycle, the menstrual cycle may overlap with the beginning of the ovulation period and increase fertility, especially in a young girl going through her first menstrual cycles.
