Can people have sex 3 days after childbirth?

Patient's question:

I found out I was pregnant a week after my period was delayed. At that time, I made an appointment with a doctor to have a medication abortion. The doctor prescribed medication for me to take at home. After taking it for three days, I started bleeding with blood clots, which should have been the baby. However, that night, my boyfriend wanted to have sex. Can you have sex after an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, can you have sexual intercourse on the third day of medication abortion? The answer is definitely not. The procedure itself is already painful enough. If you don't strictly follow the doctor's advice and are prohibited from sexual activity for a month, and as a result, you develop gynecological inflammation, pelvic inflammation, or fallopian tube blockage, then you will face the issue of being unable to conceive in the future. I hope you don't take this lightly and learn to protect yourself. It is recommended to seek treatment at a regular hospital.
