Is it possible to have sexual intercourse on the first day after tubal ligation?

Patient's question:

In August and September, I had two tubal patency tests done at the hospital, but the results were not fully unblocked. About the previous treatment and its effects: Both times the tubes were not fully unblocked. What kind of help do you need: After the second test, I had sex the same day. Will it have an impact?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after a hydrotubation procedure, sexual activity should be avoided for two weeks, at least for one week. Since you had sexual intercourse on the third day after the hydrotubation, this could potentially lead to a genital tract infection.
Medical Advice: Both of your hydrotubation procedures showed only partial patency, which indicates a need for treatment. Until the fallopian tubes are fully restored, it is recommended to use condoms during sexual activity to prevent ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is a common gynecological condition, and during medication, women should pay close attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised to maintain clean external genitalia and change underwear frequently. Wishing all female patients a speedy recovery!
