Patient's question:
Patient Gender:Patient Age: The female patient has just undergone an abortion. How long does it take to resume sexual activity?
Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to wait until menstruation returns to normal and ends before resuming sexual activity. Pay attention to the fact that after a miscarriage, sexual activity should be avoided until menstruation resumes. Avoid sitting baths, vaginal irrigation, and medication during this time. This is because the cervix is relaxed, the endometrium is shedding, and the local defense ability is weakened, making it easy to cause retrograde infection, which can lead to pelvic inflammatory diseases such as endometritis and adnexitis. Severe cases may result in infertility.
