How long after a natural miscarriage can one have sexual intercourse?

Patient's question:

I have been quite healthy. My husband has been married for a short time, and because we didn't use any contraception, we got pregnant quickly. However, for some unknown reason, I naturally miscarried around 50 days into the pregnancy. In my case, how long after a natural miscarriage can I have sex?

Doctor's answer:

After a natural miscarriage, it is recommended to wait for about two months before resuming sexual activity. It is better not to get pregnant within a year. If the miscarriage occurred without a clear reason, it is advisable to undergo thorough examination to identify the cause and address it accordingly for better results. The causes could include poor male sperm quality, poor female egg quality, issues with fallopian tubes or ovaries, or autoimmune problems. It could also be due to parasitic infections or the transmission of pathogens.
