Patient's question:
At 50 days post Cesarean section, lochia has ceased, one sexual intercourse occurred, breastfeeding is ongoing. During the intercourse, it lasted for 3 minutes without contraception, and then condoms were used. How likely is it to get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
To get pregnant, it is necessary for the woman to have normal menopause. Only with normal unprotected intercourse could she potentially conceive 50 days after delivery. If menstruation has returned to normal, it proves that the endometrium has fully restored its normal fibrotic exfoliation and cyclical changes. The ovary has also returned to normal menopause. If menstruation has not returned to normal, we generally recommend using contraception starting from 42 days postpartum. Therefore, it is advisable for you to wait and see accordingly, as the likelihood of pregnancy is relatively low. Additionally, the patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of the cesarean section.
