Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for over a month, but my husband keeps wanting to have sex. Could you please tell me if it's easy to have a miscarriage when having sex in the first month of pregnancy? Is it true that once you're pregnant, you can't have any sexual activity? Can't have sex during the early stages of pregnancy? How can I protect the fetus while also enjoying my husband?Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is appropriate to have sexual intercourse after pregnancy, but in the early stages of pregnancy, the fetus is not yet stable. Therefore, it is best to avoid sexual intercourse during the first three months of pregnancy, as it may increase the risk of miscarriage. During the last three months of pregnancy, sexual intercourse should also be avoided, as it may easily lead to premature birth. In the second trimester, it is appropriate to have sexual intercourse, but be careful not to be too rough. Of course, it is possible to have sexual intercourse before pregnancy, as not having intercourse cannot lead to pregnancy. After pregnancy, it is important to attend prenatal check-ups on time. During the first three months of pregnancy, taking folic acid orally can help prevent neural tube defects in the fetus. Wishing you and your baby good health!
