Patient's question:
The child is five and a half months old. Upon a thorough examination, it was found to be abnormal, so an induced abortion was performed. Hello, how long after a five-month induced abortion can one have sexual intercourse?Doctor's answer:
After an abortion, sexual activity should not resume for at least 12 days. If the time is too short, the body has not fully recovered, and engaging in sexual activity can easily lead to infections. Additionally, if sexual activity is resumed, it is important to use contraception, as pregnancy is not yet suitable at this time. It is recommended to wait at least six months before attempting to conceive, as the body needs sufficient time to fully recover. If the recovery period is too short, it is not conducive to the healthy development of the embryo.
