Can you have sex if you haven't had your period after a miscarriage?

Patient's question:

I had a miscarriage a month ago, and my period hasn't arrived yet. Can I have sexual intercourse? Can I engage in sexual activity if I haven't had my period for a month after a miscarriage?

Doctor's answer:

After a miscarriage for a month, if you no longer have symptoms of bleeding or abdominal pain, you can have sexual activity. However, since the previous miscarriage was induced, it may lead to delayed menstruation or delayed menopause. Therefore, it is recommended to use proper contraception during sexual activity to prevent unintended pregnancy. If your menstruation continues to be delayed for more than a week, you should have a follow-up examination at the hospital and seek treatment if necessary.
