Patient's question:
I had a miscarriage two weeks ago, and the bleeding lasted for 8 days before stopping. Yesterday, my boyfriend wanted it again, and I didn't refuse and gave in. I'm afraid of getting pregnant again and don't want to have another abortion, afraid that I might not be able to have children in the future. Should I avoid having sex after a miscarriage within one month and not take birth control pills?Doctor's answer:
It is possible to take birth control pills, but do not take them frequently while breastfeeding. The side effects of birth control pills are significant, and they can cause considerable harm to the body. In severe cases, they may lead to infertility again, and they can also disrupt irregular menstruation. However, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited within one month after a miscarriage. Premature intercourse may lead to vaginal bacterial infections or excessive bleeding. Regulating physical and mental health, maintaining personal hygiene, and avoiding bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity are important.
